We’re introducing the Forse Grants Management Platform: AI‑powered grants management for protocols and builders.

Grants today are running on top of forms, in spreadsheets, and scattered across review workflows. Reviewers are overloaded, builders are confused, and leadership still struggles to answer a simple question: What did our grants actually achieve?

The new Forse Grants Management Platform, powered by Forse Agents, is designed to fix that: automate grants, measure impact, and keep your entire program under one roof, and ultimately help you fund the work that drives real growth outcomes, not just keep applications organized.


For reviewers: your entire grants program under one roof

The first pillar of the platform is for the operators sifting through messy applications, chasing reviewers, and holding the whole grants process together by hand.

Instead of switching between forms, DMs, and internal trackers, reviewers work inside a single system with:

  • Real‑time program intelligence
    Live visibility into your pipeline, approvals, budgets, and outcomes.

  • A unified application dashboard
    Every application, status, and next step in one place.

  • An action‑driven inbox
    One clear queue of what needs attention next: reviews, follow‑ups, approvals.

  • An integrated knowledge hub
    Every doc you need to reference, surfaced right where you're making decisions.


Under the hood, Forse Agents handle the operational load:

  • Configurable AI guidance for better applications 
    Guides applicants based on your standards, improving as it sees which application patterns lead to delivery.

  • Automated scoring against your custom criteria
    Reads full proposals, scores against your weighted criteria, and learns which builder profiles actually deliver in your ecosystem over time.

  • Real‑time budget tracking
    Tracks commitments and payouts in real time, so you always know where capital is going and when you need to adjust.

Behind these surfaces are three core personas—admins configure programs and permissions, reviewers run evaluations, and builders submit and track work—so each side of the program has a focused workspace while sharing a single source of truth.


How Forse Agents run your grants program

Two context‑aware Forse Agents already run inside the platform, and we are actively adding more agentic workflows over time:

  • Guidance Agent (for builders)
    As builders fill out multi‑step grant applications, the agent uses your own criteria and instructions to suggest clearer, more complete answers—pushing applicants toward the kind of proposals your program actually wants to see.


  • Evaluation Agent (for reviewers)
    Once a proposal is submitted, the agent reads the full application and scores it against custom evaluation criteria (with weights you control, such as innovation, team strength, or potential TVL impact), producing a transparent score out of 100 plus per‑criterion breakdowns.


These agents are context‑engineered, grounded in our work with world‑class web3 teams and each program's real guidelines and workflows, rather than being generic AI helpers.


What a better builder experience unlocks for your team

The second pillar of the platform focuses on builders because smoother builder workflows directly reduce noise and manual work for reviewers and program owners.

  • Higher quality applications from day one 
    A unified application hub and AI guidance keep requirements clear for builders, so reviewers spend their time on high‑signal, well‑scoped proposals from serious builders.

  • Cleaner execution after approvals 
    Seamless onchain and offchain milestone tracking gives your team a live view of progress and risk, without chasing updates across chats and documents.

  • Stronger signal on who to fund next 
    As builders execute across multiple programs, the platform accumulates a portable track record of who actually delivers, so your team can fund with more confidence.


In practice, that means less time explaining process and hunting for updates, and more time backing the builders who move your protocol and ecosystem metrics.


Why this matters now

Grants are one of the main levers protocols and ecosystems use to drive adoption and outcomes. Without clean data and operational discipline, it is hard to see what is working, and even harder to scale it.

By combining real‑time intelligence, agent‑driven workflows, and a shared environment for reviewers and builders, Forse is built to help you:

  • See your entire grants program and impact in one place 

  • Prove which builders and programs actually move your protocol metrics 

  • Optimize future rounds by shifting capital from waste to what works

The Forse Grants Management Platform is informed by our work across leading ecosystems — including Uniswap, Sky, Arbitrum, Polygon, Optimism, Spark, Hedera, and Gnosis — where we’ve seen the same pattern: teams are moving from ‘spraying grants and hoping for the best’ to programs that prove outcomes, outpace competitors, and make every dollar count.


See the Forse Grants Management Platform in action

We’re rolling out the platform with partners who are already running — or planning — significant grants programs and want a more rigorous, data‑driven approach.

If you want to increase the chances that your grants program consistently funds work that delivers measurable outcomes, we’d be happy to walk you through a demo.
