Questions about the Preplist

Is my data actually private?

Yes. Everything you enter is stored only in your browser's localStorage. It never touches our servers. Export your JSON keychain to back it up or share it with us when you're ready.

How do I use my keychain with the grant-drafting crew?

Export it and paste it into your Brainztem workspace as a page. The Grant writing agent then drafts each application from your real answers, and you review and submit it yourself. GrantedSC does not apply on your behalf, and your keychain is never sent to us unless you choose to share it.

What if I don't have all the answers?

Leave those fields blank. They'll be flagged as needing human discernment. Partial keychains are still valuable. As you fill in missing fields, the keychain updates, so future applications move faster.

Is this the full service?

The Preplist is free forever and yours to keep. If you want help drafting applications, the grant-drafting crew runs on Brainztem from $186 a month (the $99 workspace plus the Grant writing, Prospect research and Email agents), free to try for 48 hours with no card. You review and submit every application yourself. We will not quote you a return; funders decide awards, not us.
