FAQ

Frequently Asked Questions

What is the difference between the Pre-Proposal and the Full Proposal?
The SBIR Phase I Pre-Proposal is the short pre-proposal you submit first to NSF SBIR/STTR — it is the entry point to Grantentic ($500). If NSF likes it, they invite you to submit a Full Proposal. The Full Proposal product generates the longer, post-invitation submission and is offered at $5,000 upfront, or, NSF and NIH only, $0 upfront with a 7% success fee on award.
How does the $0-upfront success-fee path (NSF and NIH only) work, and how do I unlock it?
The success-fee path is NSF and NIH only (NIH coming soon), not DoW or NASA contracts. It is not a standalone option — it unlocks only after you complete a Pre-Proposal. Once you have a Pre-Proposal on record, you upload your official NSF invitation letter (PDF) and our team verifies it. If approved, you generate your Full Proposal with no upfront payment. If NSF awards you a Phase I grant, you owe Grantentic 7% of the awarded amount net of fees (NSF and NIH only), invoiced manually after the award notification. If you are not awarded, you owe nothing.
What is the Triple Redundancy Guarantee?
Every project includes it. NASA builds triple redundancy into mission-critical systems because the cost of failure is too high to risk on a single pass. We feel exactly the same way about your SBIR Phase I proposal. Getting you funded is why Grantentic exists.
Can I buy the SBIR Phase I Proposal without a Pre-Proposal?
The $5,000 upfront option needs no Pre-Proposal and is open to anyone. The $0-upfront success-fee path (NSF and NIH only) is different: it unlocks only after you complete a Pre-Proposal. One thing applies to both, though — your NSF SBIR Phase I invitation letter is required before any full-proposal work begins. The upfront path collects it at checkout; the success-fee path (NSF and NIH only) additionally has our team verify it before approving the success-fee track.
Does this work for DoW and NASA contracts, not just NSF grants?
Yes. DoW and NASA are contracts, so you go straight to the SBIR Phase I Proposal with no pitch step and no invitation letter: $5,000 upfront. Payment arrangements can be made. The 7% success fee on award is NSF and NIH only.
What happens if a section runs over the limit?
We enforce the agency limits in code, not just in the prompt. For the NSF Project Pitch that means both NSF's word limits and the form's character limits. Anything over the limit is cut at the last complete sentence that fits.
What is the anti-fabrication guarantee?
Grantentic never invents team members, degrees, universities, employers, publications, letters of intent, or customer conversations. If we cannot substantiate a detail from your intake form, we emit a bracketed placeholder instead of a plausible-sounding fabrication.
