Navigate Grants and Government Funding with Ark

Government grants and funding can be life-changing for startups. Let’s explore how Ark can help you find and manage the right opportunities for your company!

In the Ark platform homepage, click on Investment Strategy, and then on the sub-folder Government Funding Initiatives

Then, create a new project by clicking the plus button. If you already have one, simply select it. Each project has its own dedicated context — meaning the AI will only reference information discussed within that specific project, avoiding any “context pollution.” For example, you can explore different strategies without overlap.

After creating a project, you can start by sending a message in the chat. Your dedicated AI Agent will answer your questions and guide you through a focused discussion on your strategy.

You can chat with agents in each folder using three different options:

1. Consult Partner – This is the default option. It’s a free discussion with the AI Partner dedicated to the folder you’re in. You can also ask the AI to generate documents for you.

2. Analyze Document – This option allows you to upload documents you’ve created or received from stakeholders (for example, an investor) and get an analysis, such as a list of insights or a risk assessment to the received document.

3. Teach Ark – This option lets you teach Ark new information about your company. Everything Ark knows about you is managed in the Company Profile. By selecting Teach Ark, you can upload documents or share information in the chat that you’d like Ark to learn

There are many topics you can discuss with the Grants AI Agent. We recommend starting with one of the following examples:

• What is the best way to approach government funding and grants?

• What do investors think of grants?

• What are the common pitfalls I should avoid when approaching grants and government funding?
