These terms govern your use of the GENNOW website, the Fundability Platform, and your workspace. By creating an account or using the service, you agree to them.
A note on this document. This is a plain-language template that describes how GENNOW works. It is not legal advice and should be reviewed by your own counsel before being relied upon for a live service.
GENNOW Technologies, LLC operates a Fundability Platform that helps small and community-based nonprofits build the infrastructure, knowledge, readiness, and systems funders expect, then discover funding, collaborate on applications, and manage grants. GENNOW also offers funders a simple account to post opportunities and connect with organizations. GENNOW is an independent software platform. It is not a grantor, grantee, donor-advised fund, trustee, escrow agent, or guarantor, and is not a party to any grant made between a funder and a nonprofit.
You must be at least 18 years old and authorized to act on behalf of your organization to create an account. You agree to provide accurate, current information and to keep your account credentials secure. You are responsible for activity that occurs under your account, including the teammates you invite. We may suspend or close accounts that violate these terms or that submit false or misleading information.
GENNOW does not collect, hold, escrow, process, disburse, or guarantee any grant funds. All payments flow directly from a funder to a grantee. A grantee’s sole recourse for payment is against the funder, and GENNOW bears no responsibility for payment, non-payment, timing, or the use or misuse of funds.
GENNOW offers nonprofit subscription plans, Ready ($59/mo), Deploy ($129/mo), and Trove ($199/mo), with limited Founding Cohort pricing for a limited number of organizations. Plans are billed monthly or annually, include a set number of seats, and additional seats may be added for a per-seat fee. Fees are described at checkout and on the pricing page. We may change fees on a going-forward basis with notice; your Founding Cohort rate is locked for the period described at signup.
Using GENNOW does not guarantee a match, an award, or any particular amount or timing of funding. Funding depends on opportunities, eligibility, and available capital, and every funding decision rests with the funder. AI-assisted drafts, readiness scores, and recommendations are tools to support your work, not guarantees of any outcome.
You agree not to misuse the service. You will not submit false information, infringe others’ rights, upload malware, attempt to access accounts or data that are not yours, scrape or harvest data, or use the platform for any unlawful purpose. You will comply with applicable laws, including nondiscrimination and the child-safety standards appropriate to youth-serving programs.
The GENNOW name, logo, site, and software are owned by GENNOW and may not be used without permission. Content you submit remains yours; by submitting it, you grant GENNOW a limited license to use it to operate the service, including generating AI-assisted drafts and a voice profile from the content you approve. All curricula, materials, and creative or artistic works produced by or with the young people an organization serves remain the property of that organization and, as applicable, the youth and their families. A funder acquires no ownership or license in such youth work by reason of a grant.
The service is provided “as is” without warranties of any kind, to the fullest extent permitted by law. GENNOW does not warrant that the service will be uninterrupted or error-free, or that any match, award, or payment will result. To the extent permitted by law, GENNOW and its officers, employees, and agents are not liable for indirect, incidental, or consequential damages, or for the acts, omissions, payments, or non-payments of funders or grantees. Each funder and grantee agrees to indemnify GENNOW from claims arising out of a grant, the use or misuse of funds, or their own acts or omissions, except to the extent caused by GENNOW’s gross negligence or willful misconduct.
We may update these terms from time to time. If we make material changes, we will update the date above and, where appropriate, notify you; continued use means you accept the updated terms. These terms are governed by the laws of the state in which GENNOW operates, without regard to conflicts of law. Questions can go to info@gennowtech.com or our contact page.
