Indie Grant & Alternative Funding Navigator
A subscription database and application assistant that helps independent developers discover and apply for non-traditional funding, such as technology grants and regional arts programs.
これが重要な理由
Creating digital entertainment independently is a financial tightrope walk, and you are constantly searching for ways to keep the lights on without sacrificing your creative vision to predatory publishers. You hear whispers of creators surviving by securing government arts funding or technology innovation grants, but finding these scattered opportunities is incredibly time-consuming. When you finally find one, translating your creative project into the rigid, bureaucratic language required by grant committees feels impossible. Existing business funding databases are built for traditional SaaS startups, leaving you to navigate complex institutional websites manually while your runway slowly evaporates.
