MKS Instruments

Since 2015, over 4,000 organizations have used Instrumentl to find, win, and manage more than $6.7 billion in grant funding, empowering them to expand their impact on critical missions like educating children, protecting endangered species, and restoring natural habitats.

This inefficiency means less time for the programs that actually change lives. Instrumentl exists to fix this by providing the first intelligent, full lifecycle grant platform that brings grant prospecting, tracking, and management to one place. The company's AI-powered SaaS platform automatically matches organizations with the right funders from a database of over 400,000, tracks 24/7 for new opportunities, and streamlines the entire application workflow. Founded by a team of former nonprofit development staff who experienced these pain points firsthand, Instrumentl is now trusted by 5,500+ nonprofits and academic institutions nationwide. Backed by Summit Partners and Y Combinator, the company is cash flow positive and doubling year-over-year, proving that you can build a thriving business while democratizing access to funding that communities desperately need.
