Saving and sharing grants

As you discover opportunities, save the ones worth tracking. Favorites keep your shortlisted grants in one place and make them easy to share with collaborators.

Saving a grant

Select the star icon on any grant, whether in your dashboard, in search results, or on a grant page. The grant is added to your favorites right away.

Organize saved grants into lists that match how your team works.

Project lists

Every project comes with a saved-grants list named after it, owned by the team. Joining the project grants access to the list and leaving removes it, so there is nothing to share by hand.

Organizing with lists

Group saved grants into lists so related opportunities stay together. You might keep a list per program, per deadline cycle, or per collaborator. Open Favorites in the sidebar to see all your lists and move grants between them. A grant can sit in more than one list at once, so the same opportunity can live under different programs or cycles.

Sharing with your team

Any list can be shared. Share a list with teammates so everyone is looking at the same set of opportunities, or publish a public link that people can open without an Atom account.

A public link is the fastest way to loop in reviewers, mentors, or partners who don't use Atom. They see the grants and key details in a clean, read-only view, no sign-in required.

Sharing a single grant

To send one grant to colleagues, open the menu at the top of the grant page and choose Share via Email. In the Share Grant dialog, pick Researcher and choose up to 25 people from your organization. Each person you add appears as a chip you can remove, and the button shows how many people will receive the grant, for example Send to 3 People. You can also send to any email address with Email.

Send one grant to several colleagues at once.

When you send to more than one person, each colleague gets their own email, and their replies come to you. When you send to one person, you are copied on the email. The same picker is available when you share a favorites list.

Grant alerts

Atom keeps an eye on your saved grants: it emails you as a favorited grant's deadline approaches, and sends a digest when the details of a grant you saved change, so nothing slips past you. Update alerts are based on what changed in the funder's own pages and documents, and Atom skips changes that do not affect your grant, such as an edit to another program on the same funder page.

When a saved grant turns into a real plan to apply, you can start a proposal directly from it.
