Review workflow

What FundingLens helps you do

Keep source facts, caveats and next actions together so your team can decide what deserves attention before application work starts.

01

Start notes from verified source facts: funder, programme, purpose, deadline, eligible applicants, eligible costs and required evidence.

02

Add organisation-specific context such as beneficiaries, project need, outcomes, budget assumptions and missing documents.

03

Keep AI-drafted wording labelled until a human reviews citations, caveats and readiness gaps.

Readiness checks

  • Each major claim links to a source or evidence owner.
  • Eligibility caveats and missing evidence remain visible.
  • Draft wording separated from verified facts.
  • Reviewer status and next action recorded.
  • Final application checks official funder guidance.

Eligibility caveats

  • Draft notes are not a completed application.
  • AI should not invent evidence, outcomes or funder requirements.
  • Source pages should be rechecked before submission.
