Security & Trust

Security-first grant operations, with clear limits.

Funder IQ is built for foundation teams that need strong account security, tenant-aware access, auditability, and explainable diligence — from discovery through awards and oversight — while staying explicit about where manual confirmation is still required.


№ I · Current Controls
01

Account security

Signed sessions, MFA support, password policy, and account lockout protections back authenticated access.

02

Scoped access

Tenant-aware roles, workspace permissions, and API keys keep access aligned to the current foundation team.

03

Auditability

Audit logs, access logs, and source-linked evidence make it easier to explain how a recommendation was formed.

04

Human-in-the-loop AI

AI accelerates summaries and suggestions, but outputs stay advisory and are designed for human review before decisions.

05

Review workflow

Saved dossier versions support tracked peer-review requests and verdicts so reviewer feedback stays attached to the record.

⚠ № II · Current Limits

What still requires manual confirmation or future expansion.

  • 01

    State verification now includes official registry paths for a broader set of high-volume states, but current registration status can still require manual confirmation.

  • 02

    Grant history now blends named grants recorded in Funder IQ with filing-based aggregate funding lines, so peer-funder totals remain directional rather than fully source-complete.

  • 03

    SSO and SCIM are planned for later expansion, not part of the initial single-foundation pilot.

  • 04

    The current diligence layer is built on public-source data first. Additional licensed datasets can be added later.

№ III · Operating Principle

Shorten diligence cycles, not replace judgment.

The product is designed to shorten diligence cycles and reduce operational drag — not to replace judgment. Dossiers, recommendations, and risk summaries should help teams move faster while preserving human validation, committee discussion, and a clear record through post-award oversight.
