Grant applications. Done. Not by you.
You’ve got a product to ship and a payroll to make. LayUp Funding finds the grants, credits and programs your company qualifies for, writes every application and tracks every deadline. You sign.
Pay when you’re funded, or when your application’s done.

Track to the finish
Deadlines, claims and reports. We keep the list and tell you when something needs you.
Winning shouldn’t break your cash flow
Some programs pay you back after you’ve spent the money. We map when cash goes out and when it comes back, so you know what you need on hand before you sign.

Who it’s for
Busy companies with real projects. Any money helps. Filling out forms doesn’t.
Start-ups
Pre-revenue or scaling. Money that stretches your runway.
Innovation labs
R&D teams with projects that fit public programs.
Universities & research
Research groups and tech-transfer offices with projects to fund.
Manufacturers
New equipment, automation, training and export plans.
BioSci & pharma
Long R&D timelines and the credits that go with them.
Chemical & materials
Process work, scale-up and cleaner production.
Grant obligations & audits
Winning is the start. Funders want reports, claims and records for years, and an audit can land any time. We keep you compliant from the work you’ve already done, so you keep the money.
Every obligation, found for you
Mark it funded and attach the agreement. We pull out every report, claim, milestone and record-keeping rule, with the clause it came from. You confirm the list.
Reports that write themselves
We draft each report from your approved application and the files you already keep with us, compare actuals to plan and flag what the funder will ask about. You review and submit.
Audit-ready, always
Invoices, timesheets and project files are filed to the right project as they come in. When a CRA review or IRAP audit letter arrives, the pack is already built and the replies are drafted.
You stay in charge: you approve every report and submit it yourself. In a CRA review, your accountant or SR&ED practitioner speaks for you; we prepare the file.
Two ways to pay. Neither one up front.
No subscription, no retainer, no consultant hours. Each program’s rules decide which option applies, and we tell you before you start.
