Hinchilla is an AI platform for non-profits and charities that helps them find suitable funders and write grant applications. Its AI funder search researches, scores and ranks UK funders most likely to back a project, checking each against their priorities and exclusions, while its AI-assisted grant writing drafts applications in the organisation's own voice, aligned to each funder, learning from past applications and reviewing work before submission. It also helps with letters of support and funder reporting, and does not train AI models on user documents.

SalesAPE AI deploys custom AI sales representatives that instantly engage inbound leads across email, SMS, web chat, WhatsApp and Facebook Messenger, qualify them with human-like conversation, answer questions, and book appointments around the clock. The agents are set up and tailored to each business, learn from its sales cycle over time, and sync notes into the company's CRM. They either hand qualified leads to a human sales executive or politely end unqualified conversations.
