My organization uses Submittable for grants and funding opportunities. We post between 4 and 6 funding opportunities each year, accept grant applications, and have panelists review applications to select our final roster of grantees. Applicants can fill out the grant questionnaire and submit corresponding documents. Additionally, we can communicate to applicants through the portal should information/documents be missing.

Submittable is used for our applicants to submit their requests for funding through our grant opportunities. Internally, we can review and adapt our applications to best-fit the organizations we are working with. Submittable takes out the organization load that comes along with one-by-one application requests and allows us to categorize and project manage various applications at one time. We use this product for all our applications and also for data gathering.

We use Submittable for scholarships, volunteer applications, and youth program planning. It supports scoring equitably and inclusively. It allows for collaboration when it comes to teams working with different teachers, school districts, and professionals. As for our scholarships, this is the first program that has met all our needs to ensure we are leading with equity and anti-bias.

I used Submittable to manage a portfolio of grant programs and projects that are used to fund innovative programming across Tennessee. These projects are focused on increasing student success and enhancing innovative practices in higher education. The projects have varying terms, objectives, scopes, and funding amounts. The Submittable platform allows for management, review, tracking, and archiving of these projects.

We use Submittable to run our sub-grants program, all the way from eligibility screenings and applications to quarterly and final progress reports. The submittable platform allows us to keep all grantee information in one place while being able to assign scoring sheets to our board members. Submittable will enable us to determine what projects we would like to fund based on their alignment with our organization's mission and vision and oversee the progress of those projects.

We run many scholarship and prize applications. Submittable allows us to collect responses all in one place to be reviewed. At any given time we're managing 10+ applications and this platform helps to make sure that we don't drop any entries or make over sighted mistakes. It's nice to allow users to upload documents here instead of copying into an email as sometimes used to happen.

We use Submittable to run multiple grant programs that range significantly in size and application pool. We don't know of another platform out there that creates great online applications and then application review and scoring mechanisms that are also easily assigned to other partners/reviewers. Not only is it an efficient way to handle applications, it's secure -- since we ask for financial data with some programs, and there are also lots of reporting options with the platform that serve us well, especially for reporting to our funders.

Submittable was purchased to help our office streamline the way internship and fellowship applications are promoted, received, and reviewed. At the time of purchase, our office administered 50+ different opportunities annually and the process was managed manually. We were a small team - 3 people - with one person assigned to manage the applications (we received approx 1500-3000 applications annually with 75-100 reviewers across the 50 applications).

We use Submittable to run grant projects with funding provided by our corporate sponsors. We needed a platform to distribute over $2m in funds in 2021, and Submittable was secure, organized, and easy to use for our needs. We wanted to have reviews be fair and impartial by concealing specific applicant information and having applicants submit forms to submittable instead of emailing our team repeatedly helped us orchestrate the grants seamlessly.

I use Submittable to read through submissions of fiction, poetry, and creative non-fiction our literary journal housed at a university. Submittable helps our team of editors to keep track of how many submissions we have, who the authors are, as well as assign these submissions to the various readers. I read through the unsolicited submissions pile and decide which one are worth passing forward as well as which submissions to reject outright. I've found Submittable to be a very valuable tool and reasonably intuitive to use for my purposes as a reader for a literary journal. In addition to being intuitive, I've found Submittable to be excellent in its precision as well. I can use the various filters to see what other readers at the journal are reading and what comments they've made. Submittable is great for efficient collaboration and is a strong tool that I would recommend to any organization, especially in the literary editing world.

We use Submittable to facilitate our scholarship application for the Bob and Marion Wilson Teacher Institute. Submittable allows us to collect applications, have them reviewed by both volunteers and staff, and notify the applicants all in one system. In addition to the application process, we are able to use Submittable to host our donor stewardship form where teachers can upload comments and thank you notes. Using Submittable for this process has saved our interns hours of typing up hand written comments from teachers.

I use submittable to manage the blog pitch and draft submissions of my fellow Pearson Campus Ambassadors. This helps me to filer all submissions as well as message the author for any issues. I love that I can preset responses which streamlines my work and makes me more efficient and precise. Submittable is extremely easy to use. We ususally operate on teams but it was difficult to find ways to have students submit blog drafts with bios, headshots, thumbnails, and editable word documents all in one place. Submittable makes this all easy. I use it ever day and can get so much done for our program for a whole semester in just a few hours per week.

Each year my organization receives a great deal of applications, and Submittable makes it much easier to compile everything in one place, require answers to specific questions, and sort through the data once everything is submitted. The messaging platform is an especially helpful tool during the application process.

Submittable helps us to receive, organize and review requests for grants to other non-profit organizations. We typically receive between one and two influxes of submissions each year. We have an advisory board who are geographically spread out across 4 time zones, who all use Submittable to conduct their reviews. We probably have reviewed close to 1,000 submissions through Submittable.

We are a philanthropic fund, so we accept applications for funding through Submittable. Our board reviews the applications, votes, and shares their perspectives with each other through the site. Submittable allows us to track, categorize and assign the applications that come in for review and also to store past applications for reference.
