OpenGov’s grants module handles the accounting after you win — by design. If your losses are upstream, in grants never found and applications never finished, here’s the comparison that matters.
| Avila | OpenGov Grants | |
|---|---|---|
| Finds grants for you? | ✓AI-matched to your projects | ✗Not offered[1] |
| AI that drafts the application? | ✓From the NOFO and your documents | ✗Not offered[1] |
| Every expense screened by AI? | ✓2 CFR 200 + your award terms | ~Not detailed publicly[1] |
| Federal reports and SEFA drafted for you? | ✓SF-425, SF-PPR, single-audit prep | ~Award-to-closeout module[1] |
| Works with any finance stack? | ✓GL import | ✗Built for OpenGov ERP[2] |
OpenGov’s module — from its 2025 Ignatius acquisition[3] — covers “award acceptance through final audit closeout,” connected to OpenGov ERP[1][2]. Its grants AI so far is compliance-schedule setup[4].
If you run OpenGov ERP and love it, nothing here says switch. Its grants module does what it promises: post-award accounting.
The money you lose isn’t in the ledger — it’s the opportunities never found and applications never finished. That’s the half no ERP module attempts[1].

Yes. Won applications export cleanly into whatever post-award system of record you choose.
