Grant Proposal Writer Kit

A working proposal-draft generator + master template + client-acquisition SOP + verified 2026 pricing — everything to start a grant-writing side business for nonprofits, a service that verified market rates put at $1,000–$10,000+ per proposal.

What's inside

A real working tool (grant_draft_generator.py) — turns structured client intake into a complete 8-section, funder-rubric-aligned first-draft grant proposal in under a second. No API key, no per-run cost, runs entirely on your own machine.
A sample client + sample generated draft included so you can see exact output quality before your first real client.
A Claude Skill (grant-proposal-writer/SKILL.md) to sharpen the generated draft's voice and match any funder's exact RFP structure — drop into Claude.ai / Claude Code.
Client-acquisition SOP — exact outreach message, intake script, delivery, and retainer-upsell steps for landing nonprofit clients.
Pricing sheet with verified 2026 market rates ($1,000–$10,000+ per proposal, $2,000–$6,000/mo retainers) and a 90-day pricing ladder.
A compliance one-pager most "sell AI services" guides skip entirely — what NIH's active AI-disclosure policy actually requires, and how to pitch this service so you don't create risk for a nonprofit client.

Built honestly

The source video's "$2-10K per proposal" claim checked out against 2026 market data — but it left out that NIH now requires disclosure when application content is "substantially developed by AI," and that percentage-of-grant commission pricing violates GPA/AFP ethics codes and gets rejected by most funders outright. This kit prices and positions the service correctly instead of setting up your first client for a rejected application.
