ON-DEMAND REPORTS
Know Exactly What Gets Funded Before You Submit
Proposals rarely fail because of bad projects - they fail because of avoidable gaps. Our custom reports provide an independent evaluation of your pre-submission concept notes and proposals.
We benchmark your drafts against donor criteria and relevant precedents to show you exactly what is missing and what needs strengthening. Our Climate Finance Intelligence platform expands that further with access to thousands of approved project files to help build your winning proposal.
The stakes are high: General-purpose AI isn't built for this
Generic AI pulls from web content not real project files. While proposals are judged against formal criteria, approvals hinge on how the Secretariat applies them in practice. CFI is built on 3,000+ approved project files, so you’re preparing against proven decisions not just guidance. Others rely on theory, this is grounded in evidence.
Concept Note Drafting
We eliminate the "blank page" problem by generating a highly structured first draft based on your project idea and benchmarked against the full CFI corpus of approved projects. Your submission starts grounded in what GCF actually funds.
1. First-Draft V.3.0 Generation: An initial draft of most CN sections, embedding CFI corpus references and sector paradigm-shift pathways to give your team a massive head start before final submission.
2. Built-In Quality Assurance: Includes an internal CN Evaluation run before delivery - your draft is scored and gap-checked before you see it, so what arrives is submission-ready.
3. Rapid Turnaround & Easy Procurement: Delivered in 10 days from intake call, at a price point below standard DAE procurement thresholds - no tender required. We do the writing. You do the review.

Concept Note Evaluation
Every section of your GCF Concept Note is benchmarked against the full corpus of approved projects in the CFI dataset, ensuring your submission aligns with what the Secretariat has already said yes to. We identify what is missing, what needs strengthening, and the evidence standard each section must meet.
1. Section-by-Section Scoring: Scored section-by-section against GCF CN Template V.3.0 using CFI's three-layer evaluation methodology — template responsiveness, alignment scoring, and precedent benchmarking.
2. Precedent-Backed Findings: Every finding traces to a specific approved project in the CFI corpus — not generic guidance, not AI inference. The difference between advice and evidence.
3. Rapid Delivery & Actionable Results: Delivered in 48 hours with a composite alignment score, readiness rating, and ranked corrective actions for each gap identified.

Funding Proposal Evaluation
Every section of your GCF Funding Proposal is evaluated against the six GCF investment criteria, benchmarked against the full corpus of approved proposals, and calibrated against published ITAP assessment ratings - giving you an independent view of where your proposal stands before the Secretariat and ITAP see it.
1. Investment Criteria Scoring: Scored section-by-section against GCF investment criteria using CFI's three-layer methodology — responsiveness check, criterion-level alignment scoring, and precedent benchmarking.
2. ITAP Calibration: Includes ITAP calibration: CFI findings compared criterion-by-criterion against published ITAP ratings on comparable approved proposals.
3. Comprehensive Evaluation Report: Delivered as a full evaluation report with a compliance score (High / Moderate / Low) and ranked corrective actions before submission.

Revision Request Brief
When GCF's Secretariat or ITAP returns your proposal with revision requests, the clock starts immediately. CFI converts each challenge into a structured response strategy - mapping every Secretariat or ITAP comment to the specific section, evidence gap, and dataset grounded corrective action required to satisfy it before resubmission.
1. Evidence-Based Response Strategy: Each Secretariat or ITAP revision request analyzed against the CFI corpus to identify how comparable approved proposals addressed the same challenge.
2. Ranked Action Plan: Converts unstructured reviewer feedback into a ranked action plan: which gaps are critical to address, which are negotiable, and in what sequence revisions should be made.
3. Ready-to-Use Response Brief: Delivered as a response brief structured to mirror the Secretariat's original comments — ready to brief your drafting team or NDA focal point before resubmission.
