Trovu Ltd came to us with an idea: a small charity shouldn't have to trawl hundreds of funders' websites to find out which grants are open, and which of them it could actually win.
Trovu asked us to do three things:
- Find the grants that are open now. Read funders' own websites every day, so a charity sees what it can apply for today.
- Match them to each charity. Put the grants in order for each charity, best first, by what it does, where it works and its size, and say why each one fits.
- Give charities one place to run their fundraising. A short list, deadlines and reminders, budgets and reports for trustees, for the whole team, at a price a small charity can afford.
We designed and built all three, and the business around them: signing up, payments and accounts, and plans that councils and local support bodies can buy for the groups in their area.
Trovu is live at trovu.uk. On 11 November 2026 it was watching 3,447 funders and listing 2,995 grants open now, checked on the funders' own pages.
It's built the way we build everything: on Drupal and CiviCRM, with our own work where it adds something, and starting from the people who will use it.
