# SmartGrant Reviews

**Category:** [Proposal Software](https://www.g2.com/categories/proposal)
## About SmartGrant
SmartGrant software is designed around a collection of key profiles that will aid in the proposal preparation and award management functions. With carefully developed profiles, the lion's share of the data required to complete federal (and most state, local and foundation) proposals will automatically flow into sponsor forms, thus relieving investigators and sponsored research administrators from this mundane task.
