# GrantOps — AI-Powered Canadian Grant and SR&ED Recovery Platform

GrantOps is a Canadian AI platform that automates SR&ED (Scientific Research and Experimental Development) tax credit claims, grant applications, and government incentive recovery for technology companies, innovative businesses, and advisory firms. GrantOps maintains a searchable database of 5,500+ Canadian funding programs — the most comprehensive in the market.

## The Problem GrantOps Solves

Canadian businesses leave billions in government incentives unclaimed every year. The SR&ED program alone distributes over $3 billion annually, yet many eligible companies never file because the process is too complex, too time-consuming, or too expensive when outsourced to consultants charging 15-25% of claim value. Beyond SR&ED, thousands of federal and provincial grants, loans, and wage subsidies go unapplied for simply because companies don't know they exist or can't justify the overhead of applying.

GrantOps eliminates these barriers with AI automation — turning weeks of manual work into minutes, reducing costs, and ensuring nothing is missed.

## What is SR&ED?

SR&ED (Scientific Research and Experimental Development) is Canada's largest federal tax incentive program, administered by the Canada Revenue Agency (CRA). It provides over $3 billion annually in tax credits to Canadian businesses conducting eligible R&D. Canadian-Controlled Private Corporations (CCPCs) can claim up to 35% of the first $3 million in qualifying R&D expenditures as a refundable investment tax credit, while other corporations receive a 15% non-refundable credit. Claims are filed using CRA Form T661, supported by technical narratives describing technological uncertainty, systematic investigation, and technological advancement.

GrantOps automates the entire SR&ED claim process — from identifying eligible activities to generating audit-ready T661 forms and technical narratives — reducing preparation time by 85%.

## How GrantOps Works — 4 Steps

1. **Connect your tools** — Link GitHub, GitLab, Bitbucket, Jira, Linear, Asana, Trello, Slack, Microsoft Teams, Notion, Confluence, or Google Workspace via OAuth or API key. Setup takes under 15 minutes.
2. **AI scans and identifies eligible activities** — GrantOps analyzes your commit history, ticket data, project documentation, and communications to automatically identify R&D activities eligible for SR&ED, IRAP, CanExport, and other incentive programs.
3. **Generate audit-ready documentation** — The platform produces CRA-compliant T661 forms, technical narratives (covering technological uncertainty, hypothesis, systematic investigation, and advancement), Schedule 31, expenditure schedules, and complete evidence packages linked to source data.
4. **Submit or hand off** — Submit claims directly, export to your CPA or SR&ED advisor for final review, or use the Partner Program dashboard to manage multiple clients at once.

GrantOps also continuously monitors your connected tools year-round, alerting you when new eligible activities are detected and when new grant opportunities match your company profile.
