Eligibility

Before investing time in an application, you want to know whether you actually qualify. Atom assesses eligibility for you, so you can rule opportunities in or out quickly.

Your eligibility profile

Atom uses details from your profile to judge fit, including your career stage, role, and institution. The more complete your profile, the more accurate the assessment. You can build it out any time on your research profile, including by uploading a CV or paper.

Eligibility on a grant

Open any grant and Atom shows an eligibility assessment based on the solicitation's requirements and your profile. It highlights the criteria that matter, such as citizenship, career stage, or institution type, and flags anything that may disqualify you before you start.

You get an overall verdict, Eligible, Not Eligible, or Need More Info, with the requirements grouped into what you meet, what would rule you out, what to double-check, and anything Atom still needs from you. When a check is missing a detail, add it and re-run the assessment on the spot.

Eligibility checks are a guide, not a guarantee. Always confirm the official requirements with the funder before you apply.

In proposals

When you build a proposal, eligibility and other key requirements are pulled into your AI guide, so the criteria stay in front of your team as you work.
