Terms of Service

These Terms of Service (“Terms”) govern your access to and use of Grantlas (grantlas.com), operated by Product Tools LLC (“we,” “us,” “our”). By creating an account or using the service, you agree to these Terms. If you do not agree, do not use Grantlas.

1. The service

Grantlas helps nonprofits discover and evaluate grant opportunities and funders. It aggregates public grant and funder data and uses AI to score and explain how each matches your organization. Grantlas is an informational and research tool; it does not apply for grants on your behalf and does not guarantee any funding outcome.

2. Accounts

You sign in with a one-time code we email you — you can type the code or use the sign-in link in the same message. There is no password. Because your email inbox is what protects your account, keeping access to it secure is your responsibility, and you are responsible for activity under your account. You must provide accurate information, keep your email address current, and be at least 18 years old. Team plans let an account owner invite additional users; the owner is responsible for their team members’ use of the service.

3. Free trial

New accounts get a 7-day free trial. To start the trial you choose a plan and we collect a payment method. At the end of the trial your plan begins automatically and we charge the price of the plan you chose — $99/month for Solo or $199/month for Pro, or the annual price if you selected annual billing — and it renews at that interval until you cancel.

We email you when your trial starts, and again at least three days before it ends, both times stating the amount and the date. You can cancel at any time before the trial ends, from the billing page in the app, and you will not be charged at all. You can create an account, build your organization profile and see your first matches without entering a payment method.

4. Subscriptions and billing

• Paid plans are billed monthly or annually, beginning on the day you subscribe.
• Team (Pro) plans include a set number of users; additional users are billed per seat.
• Payments are handled by a third-party payment processor. By subscribing you authorize us to charge your payment method on a recurring basis, at the interval you chose, until you cancel.
• You can cancel at any time from the billing page in the app, without contacting us. Cancellation takes effect at the end of the current billing period; you keep access until then, and fees already paid are non-refundable except where required by law.
• We may change our prices. We’ll give you notice before a change affects your next renewal, so you can cancel first if you’d rather not renew at the new price.
• For annual plans we email you at least 30 days before each renewal with the renewal date and the amount. For monthly plans we email you before the first charge and send a receipt for every charge after that.

5. Acceptable use

Grantlas is built on public records — including IRS Form 990 filings and federal grant listings — and those underlying public records are, and remain, public. What we ask you not to take is our work on top of them: the compiled index, the enrichment, the scoring, and the content we generate. You agree not to:

• Scrape, crawl, harvest, or bulk-export the Grantlas index, our fit scores, reasoning, eligibility reads, or funder descriptions, whether by automated means or otherwise.
• Use that material to build, train, or improve a competing product, dataset, or model.
• Resell, sublicense, or redistribute the service or the material described above.
• Reverse-engineer, decompile, or attempt to extract our source code or underlying models.
• Share your account or sign-in codes outside the users permitted by your plan.
• Use the service to violate any law, infringe others’ rights, or interfere with the service’s security or operation.

Nothing here restricts you from obtaining the underlying public filings and grant notices from their original public sources.

6. Data accuracy and sources

Grant and funder information is compiled from public sources, including IRS Form 990 filings and federal grant listings, and from third-party data. We make no warranty that this information is complete, current, or accurate. Deadlines, eligibility rules, and funder priorities change — you are responsible for verifying details with the funder before you act.

7. AI-generated content

Fit scores, reasoning, eligibility reads, red flags, and other AI outputs are generated automatically and may be incomplete or wrong. They are provided for convenience only and are not legal, financial, tax, or professional advice. Do not rely on them without independent verification.

8. Changes to the service

We improve Grantlas continuously, which means features change. We may add, modify, or discontinue parts of the service. If we discontinue or materially reduce a feature that is central to the plan you are paying for, we will give you reasonable advance notice, and you may cancel and receive a pro-rata refund of any prepaid fees covering the period after the change takes effect.

9. Preview features

We sometimes label a feature as in development, in preview, or coming soon. Those features are not part of what you are paying for, are provided as-is if and when they become available, may change substantially, and may be withdrawn. Nothing we say about a planned feature is a commitment to deliver it on any timeline.

10. Intellectual property

Grantlas, including its software, compiled data index, scoring methodology, design, and original content, is owned by Product Tools LLC and protected by intellectual-property laws. This does not extend to the underlying public records themselves. The information you enter about your organization remains yours; you grant us the limited, non-exclusive license needed to operate the service for you — including sending the relevant parts of your organization profile to our AI providers to generate scores and reasoning, as described in our Privacy Policy.

11. Disclaimer of warranties

The service is provided “as is” and “as available,” without warranties of any kind, whether express or implied, including implied warranties of merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose, and non-infringement. We do not warrant that the service will be uninterrupted, error-free, or that it will produce any particular result.

12. Limitation of liability

To the fullest extent permitted by law, Product Tools LLC and its suppliers will not be liable for any indirect, incidental, special, consequential, or punitive damages, or for any loss of profits, funding, data, or goodwill, arising out of or related to your use of (or inability to use) the service. Our total liability for any claim relating to the service will not exceed the amount you paid us in the twelve months before the claim.

13. Events outside our control

We are not liable for any failure or delay caused by events beyond our reasonable control, including outages at our hosting, payment, email or AI providers, changes to or interruptions of the public data sources we rely on, network failures, natural events, or acts of government.

14. Termination

You may stop using the service and cancel at any time, as described in section 4. We may suspend or terminate your access if you materially breach these Terms. Except where your breach risks immediate harm to Grantlas, other users, or a third party — or where the law requires otherwise — we will give you notice describing the problem and at least 30 days to fix it before terminating. On termination, your right to use the service ends.

15. Survival

Sections 5 (acceptable use, as to material you obtained while using the service), 6, 7, 10, 11, 12, 13, 16, 17, 18 and 19 survive any termination or expiration of these Terms, along with any payment obligations accrued before termination.

16. Changes to these Terms

We may revise these Terms from time to time. We’ll post the updated version here with a new effective date, and for changes that materially affect your rights we will notify you by email before they take effect. Continued use of Grantlas after a change takes effect means you accept the revised Terms; if you do not accept them, you may cancel.

17. Notices

We give notice by email to the address on your account, and notices are treated as received on the day they are sent. Keeping that address current and able to receive our email is your responsibility. You can reach us at team@grantlas.com.

18. Assignment

You may not assign or transfer these Terms, or your account, without our prior written consent. We may assign these Terms to an affiliate, or in connection with a merger, acquisition, reorganization, or sale of all or substantially all of our assets. Any other assignment is void.

19. Governing law

These Terms are governed by the laws of the State of Texas, without regard to its conflict-of-law rules. You agree to the exclusive jurisdiction of the state and federal courts located in Texas for any dispute that is not otherwise resolved.

20. General

• Severability. If any provision of these Terms is held unenforceable, it will be limited or removed to the minimum extent necessary, and the rest of these Terms will remain in full force and effect.
• No waiver. If we do not enforce a provision of these Terms, that is not a waiver of our right to enforce it later.
• Entire agreement. These Terms, together with our Privacy Policy and Cookie Policy, are the entire agreement between you and us about the service, and replace any earlier understanding.
• Relationship. These Terms do not create a partnership, joint venture, agency, or employment relationship between us.
