Organizations can now verify their identity through the new GrantWatch Profiles platform at no cost, typically by utilizing an official email address. By populating these profiles with mission statements, leadership details, and impact reports, entities earn Visibility Tier™ badges that serve as a marker of credibility for potential funders and partners. This initiative moves GrantWatch beyond its traditional roots as a discovery engine, positioning it as a comprehensive Grant Lifecycle Platform.
GrantWatch Shifts to Lifecycle Platform With New Verified Profiles
GrantWatch has launched a public profile system allowing nonprofits, government agencies, and foundations to claim and manage their official presence within its funding ecosystem. The platform introduces a tiered badge program—Bronze through Platinum—designed to increase organizational transparency and improve grant matching accuracy for users.

Libby Hikind, founder and CEO of GrantWatch, stated that the move gives organizations direct control over their narrative, which has historically been fragmented across various directories. Beyond mere branding, these verified profiles integrate with the company’s AI-driven research tool, GrantWatch Intelligence™, to provide more precise funding matches. To encourage adoption, the company is offering up to 1 million complimentary research tokens to organizations that claim and verify their profiles throughout 2026.
