Frequently asked questions

Detailed guide to matching, monitoring, reminders, connections, and subscriptions.

How does grant-to-profile matching work?

The platform combines your keywords, scientific focus, geographies, applicant type, and signals from research connections. Each call includes an adequacy rationale for faster decisions.

Are deadlines always reliable?

Deadlines are continuously re-checked across monitored sources. If a date is estimated, that state is clearly labeled. Final submission planning should always validate against the official source page.

How does institution/website monitoring work?

You can configure institution name, URL, keywords, and checking frequency in hours. Grant Radar tracks new calls, deadline extensions, and key updates, then notifies your selected channels.

Which delivery channels are available?

Email, WhatsApp, Telegram, Slack, and Microsoft Teams. Channel-specific input fields appear only when the channel is selected.

How do reminders work in My Calls?

You can pin calls you plan to apply to and set multiple deadline reminders (for example 14 days, 1 month, 2 months, custom days, and cyclic reminders).

What is the difference between Individual and Group subscriptions?

Individual covers one user. Group allows up to 9 invited users while the subscription is active, with seat-reuse rules after revocation.

Do profile connections (ORCID, LinkedIn, etc.) auto-fill my setup?

Yes. After authorization, available profile signals are used to suggest dashboard keywords, geographies, and search focus.
