Data and method: where the grants come from and how we say whether they fit
The official sources, what “fits” and “check the requirements” mean, how the amounts are calculated and what we do not do with your data.
The sources
Spanish grants come from the National Subsidies Database (BDNS), the register where public administrations publish their calls and awards (the publicity of subsidies is governed by articles 18 and 20 of Law 38/2003, General Subsidies Law, and the database itself, Royal Decree 130/2019). We read it every day, as it is published. The directly managed European funds (Horizon Europe, LIFE, Digital Europe…) are awarded by the European Commission and come from its funding portal, also every day. If a piece of data is not published, we do not fill it in.
What each verdict means
- Fits: the sector, the region, the size and what the rules say match your company.
- Check the requirements: it may fit, but there is a requirement to check, and we tell you which one.
- Does not fit: an objective requirement excludes it (the region, the size or the sector), and we also tell you which one.
When in doubt, the verdict goes down: we would rather you check one too many than trust one that isn't right.
The numbers of each grant
- Funding: the budget published by the call.
- What is left to award: the funding minus the awards already published; if a credit increase throws the figure off, it is not shown.
- Median grant and the usual range: the median and the central range of the awards already published for that call; with no awards, it is not estimated.
- Previous editions: the years in which the same body published the same call. “Repeats every year” only with consecutive years: it is what happened, not an announced date.
What we do not do
- We do not submit applications or sign for you: we prepare the documents and a person submits them with their digital certificate.
- We do not make up amounts, deadlines, requirements or rules: what is not in the sources is not here.
- We do not promise awards: the decision belongs to the body that issues the call.
Your data
Your company's profile is used for one thing only: to see how it fits each call. It is not sold or shared.
