Third-party funding research for the whole university
Campus-wide access to the foundation database for research and grant offices.
How your work changes
What shifts when you move from public registers and spreadsheets to Fundraiso.
- Tracking calls for proposals across separate funding portals and PDF lists.
- Every researcher starts the foundation search from scratch.
- No institutional overview of who has already applied where.
- Filter by discipline, region and funding type — all calls in one place.
- Campus license: every researcher and grant office on board from day one.
- Per project, your own favorites list with notes and status — application preparation gets structured documentation.
What you concretely get
Comprehensive coverage of research foundations, scholarship programs and institutional funding. Campus licenses enable unrestricted access for researchers, doctoral candidates and grant offices.
How research institutions use Fundraiso
For researchers. Search for third-party funding sources independently, without waiting for the grant office. Filter by discipline, funding type and region. Save matching foundations to your own favorites lists for application preparation.
For grant offices. A campus license licenses the whole university — researchers, doctoral candidates and administrative staff access through the institutional network without individual logins.
For IT and research administration. Integrate foundation data into internal research information systems and application databases via API & data packages.
Lessons from the research landscape. Public comments from other users give insight into application practices and foundation relationships — knowledge that otherwise only travels informally between grant offices.
I'm looking for funding for a research project on eating disorders. Thanks to the Fundraiso materials I had a fast overview of all possible funding options. I'm very satisfied with the fundraising data and can recommend Fundraiso's services.

Indicative pricing and detailed configuration on request via the contact form.
Fundraiso covers foundations with a research and science funding focus across all disciplines — from basic research through applied research to scholarship programs for doctoral candidates and postdocs. Filters narrow the search by discipline, region and funding type.
Yes. Foundations that offer scholarships or doctoral funding are categorised as such and can be filtered. Funding amounts and application deadlines are documented in the foundation profile where available.
Fundraiso focuses on the DACHLI region (Switzerland, Liechtenstein, Germany, Austria) and additionally covers larger UK foundations. For purely international funding programs (EU research funding, US foundations) other databases are better suited — we see ourselves as a complementary tool for regional third-party funding.
Yes. Via a REST API you integrate foundation data into your own systems — modular data packages, quota-free workflow endpoints and token management in your account. Full details on the API page.
