Instrumentl is the grants operating system trusted by over 5,500 nonprofits to find, win, and manage grants at scale.
We're committed to collaboration, co-creation and showing up for your community to grow our impact, together.
From onboarding to ongoing support, consider our partnerships team a member of yours.
Instrumentl works with a range of partners who share our conviction that grant professionals deserve better infrastructure. Whether you're an individual practitioner, a professional community, or an organization whose work touches the grants space, there's a place for you here.
Independent grant consultants, trainers, coaches, and content creators who work directly with grant professionals. Our partners have helped thousands of nonprofits access better tools and grow their grants practices (while building stronger businesses in the process).
Great partners include GPA Approved Trainers, consultancies such as RBW Strategy, and nonprofit-oriented podcasters such as Teresa Huff and Jenni Hargrove.
The professional organizations and member communities where grant professionals gather to sharpen their craft and move the field forward. We co-create resources and workshops that deliver real value to the professionals and nonprofits who need them most.
Great community partners include the Grant Professionals Association, Nonprofit Hub, and local chapters of AFP and GPA.
Want to empower your grantees to manage grants and reporting more effectively, with custom training and support built-in? Instrumentl partners with Foundations looking to intentionally invest in their grantees' long-term capacity, not just a check in the mail.
For CPA firms and accounting practices whose clients are still managing grant budgets in spreadsheets. Instrumentl helps you deliver real-time financial clarity to clients managing restricted funds and grant compliance — turning a client pain point into a stronger service offering.
For firms helping nonprofits build out their tech stack who keep running into the grants gap, we should talk. Instrumentl partners with technology implementation firms looking to offer a more complete, intuitive grant management solution alongside the systems they already implement.
Instrumentl is the institutional fundraising platform that brings grant prospecting, tracking and management to one place. Trusted by 4,000+ nonprofits and grant writing consultants, Instrumentl saves folks three hours a week on average and increases grant application output by 78% within a year of use.
We’re a small team so must be intentional with who we partner with at this time. Typically, we may decline your application because:
First, apply using the application that best suits you!
Then, our Partnerships Marketing Manager will be in touch for a 30-minute onboarding meeting to learn more about your work and share more about Instrumentl (along with the Partner Program).
From that meeting, next steps will be established and we’ll begin working together! Stay active with us to get more opportunities to get featured.
As an Instrumentl Partner, we’ll give you access to our Partner Jumpstart Kit, which provides tons of copy, product images and strategies you can use to easily integrate Instrumentl into your existing work.
If you ever need anything more, such as a bonus module to add to your online course, just let us know and we’ll take care of that for you.
Typically, our partners will add us to their preferred resources pages, share Instrumentl when they talk about grant-related topics or presentations, and collaborate with us to host a workshop to their community.
Feel free to reach out to our Partnership Marketing Manager to brainstorm and come up with a tactical promotion strategy!
The FTC has guidelines on how affiliates and influencers should promote products and services to reduce consumer deception. If you are an affiliate marketer and promote the products of companies based in the United States, United Kingdom, or Canada, you need to know what the FTC requirements for affiliate disclosure are and why they are so important.
Instrumentl is based in the United States, so you are obligated to follow FTC guidelines when sharing Instrumentl.
It’s definitely an advantage for you if you have used Instrumentl in the past (our most successful partners tend to also be customers) since you’ll know the best ways to share Instrumentl, but it is not required to be an Instrumentl customer to be part of our Partner Program.
When you get your first referral, we will send you an invite to set yourself up on Gusto for digital payments.
Every month, Instrumentl will draw an affiliate report to see the latest referrals who have come through partner channels. Then, we will send you payment via Gusto, typically by the 15th of each successive month at the latest.
