I can easily and quickly find everything I want to know about the grant opportunity, the foundation’s patterns of giving, and why my client was matched to this grant or foundation. I love the comprehensiveness of the database. I can be confident that Instrumentl will ALWAYS find something for me to analyze — whether it’s a grant match or a foundation match that I can look into. Additionally, I can get help on anything. If I can’t find it in the written explanations, there’s a video to watch or I can get quick assistance in a chat. I love that I can allow my team to be core users and have their own login and password, too. It means they can operate independently. This is very important with how I run my business. The convenience of uploading my award letters and having them scoured by the AI feature was AMAZING\! I was able to run a report and have every bit of info in a spreadsheet that could be sent to stakeholders. It was fantastic\! I LOVE Instrumentl\! > > **Cons**: I have to be my pettiest self to name anything I don’t like about Instrumentl. I wish my core users weren’t able to see each other’s projects. I assume anyone on there is too busy doing their thing to mess with other peoples’ stuff, but it makes me uneasy. (This is an included feature if/ when I move to the next Consultant level…) Sometimes, the effectiveness of the matching is a little overwhelming (really large numbers of matches), but that just means I get to hone the search even more when the results are too expansive. The price is a little high, but I have to believe that I will eventually make the money back because of how well I will be able to serve my clients with this tool… > > Overall, Instrumentl is one of the reasons I have joy as a grant writer. It makes my job easy with verbal and visual information arranged in a very appealing and accessible interface. I recommend everyone make this one of the tools you work into your budget. ----- ### "A newbie at fundraising" — 5.0/5 > **Eddie** | *24 September 2025* | Religious Institutions | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10 > > **Pros**: I like the ability of finding donors and foundations that can ultimately help my non-profit. I have a part-time employee and a team that are learning about grant writing and using the AI component to go along with it. > > **Cons**: There seems to be a pretty big learning curve, so it is taking me a while to figure the software out. (For example, no one at InstrumentL told me about just searching my state within the software. I saw a google link to "Mississippi Foundations in Instrumentl" outside of your platform. > > Very good. I've even found a family foundation in my own town that I didn't know existed, applied, and received funds\! ----- ### "Instrumentl is a great way to get organized" — 5.0/5 > **Verified Reviewer** | *25 October 2022* | Nonprofit Organization Management | Recommendation rating: 8.0/10 > > **Pros**: I like that Instrumentl makes it easy to find grants for a project and that you can keep them organized in the tracker feature. > > **Cons**: I would say that the biggest con for me is the price and I would like to see more payment plan options. > > Instrumentl is a critical part of my grant research process and I am overall grateful that I have the ability to use it for helping clients to find grants. ----- ### "Elegant, Insightful and Built with Grant Pros in Mind" — 5.0/5 > **Amy** | *4 March 2026* | Education Management | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10 > > **Pros**: Instrumentl is designed to make every stage of an organization’s grant program easier—from researching funding opportunities to drafting proposals to managing an award. Yet what makes the Instrumentl platform genuinely transformative is that it goes far beyond facilitating an individual grant project. Their tools also make it incredibly simple to see patterns and trends in your organization’s data. From quickly projecting exactly where a potential cash flow problem comes from to easily visualizing project deadline bottlenecks, Instrumentl transforms what used to take hours and days of painstaking effort - patching data from across multiple platforms - into simple, easily repeatable tasks that help plan and understand your work in a more comprehensive and meaningful way. It’s delivered through an elegant, easy-to-use interface and supported by a team that truly cares about the customer experience, as evidenced by their listening to and responding to user feedback. Last but not least, they are genuinely building a community. Their webinars are valuable for both the timely, relevant information shared by knowledgeable presenters and the information shared by participants. As a long-time grant professional, I feel seen. > > **Cons**: I am now going into my third year using Instrumentl, and have found nothing I consider to be a drawback. ----- ### "Best Grant Tool I've Found\!" — 5.0/5 > **Cole** | *6 October 2025* | Health, Wellness & Fitness | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10 > > **Pros**: It's easy to use and has so many features that has made grant research so much more efficient\! All the free trainings have been so helpful and they are actually very useful\! > > **Cons**: I wish I could refine my matches a bit more to more accurately reflect my projects (this could be user error). > > it has been great there was no pressure to sign on which was really amazing and they let you use the software for 14 days for free\! and even if you don't use the software you can still attend the trainings\! It's been a game changer for me and my team to keep organized and stay on top of our goals. ----- Page: 1 / 9\ Next: [Next page](https://www.softwareadvice.co.uk/software/317455/instrumentl?page=2) ## Links - [View on SoftwareAdvice](https://www.softwareadvice.co.uk/software/317455/instrumentl) ## This page is available in the following languages | Locale | URL | | en | | | en-AU | | | en-GB | | | en-IE | | | en-NZ | | ----- ## Structured Data
