AI powered by your past applications
Hinchilla uses your organisation's own content, successful applications, case studies, impact reports and policy documents. That takes AI responses past the generic fluff you get from ChatGPT and other tools, saving time on repetitive work so you can focus on what matters.
Grant-winning language
Maintain your authentic voice across applications by learning from your past work. Hinchilla turns technical jargon into persuasive, funding-friendly language tailored to reviewers' expectations.
Researched and aligned to each funder
Hinchilla researches each funder's priorities, exclusions and preferred language. Your application speaks directly to what they care about, and avoids the phrases that get applications dropped.
Automatic review before you submit
After generating your application, Hinchilla automatically reviews it against the funder's criteria and suggests improvements, including where additional information could strengthen your case.
From applications to reporting
Generate funder-specific progress reports for the same project with different timelines and requirements. Update once, report everywhere, saving hours of repetitive work for your fundraising team.

What our users say
“Hinchilla has turned a week of work into a day. I recently did a big government homelessness bid with a short deadline that I simply wouldn't have attempted otherwise. Because the first draft came back so quickly and with such good content, I only needed to spend another eight or nine hours on it rather than 40 or 50. More bids are going in, and that means we're more likely to survive.”
Director, Traveller Space
“Hinchilla is amazing for getting the structure of an application so I can focus on the detail and nuances. It's definitely better than any other AI I've tried in this area. Being able to generate funding applications that are broadly similar but have a different key focus, without having to laboriously rewrite and adapt manually, has been brilliant. It's definitely saved me a lot of time and the content doesn't sound like AI churn, it feels very different to generic tools like ChatGPT.”
Naomi Salisbury Consulting
“I've been really impressed by Hinchilla. It produces responses that read much less like AI than other platforms and does a great job of aligning messaging with the aims and objectives of the funder.”
