SR&ED claims are retroactive for 18 months — the clock is ticking

Find the right Canadian support path before you chase another program.

Grant & Funding turns your business goal into a practical route: eligible programs, missing evidence, partner help, software gaps, and next actions. SR&ED recovery can range from $50K–$500K, but the first job is knowing what is real for your company.

Built for operators who need a straight answer

The scan is not a promise of free money. It is a structured first pass: what may fit, what is missing, and what should happen next.

Built for real businesses

Service firms, manufacturers, software companies, and operators who need action, not a long research project.

Programs plus partners

We map the funding route and the execution layer around it — who should help, what tool is needed, and what comes next.

Evidence-aware from day one

A strong support path is not only about eligibility. It also shows documentation, proof, and readiness gaps before you waste time.

Three steps to a usable support path

Answer the minimum first. Add optional details only when they improve the match.

Step 1

Describe the goal

Start with the business outcome: hiring, training, modernization, export, or R&D.

Step 2

Map the stack

We cross-reference 32+ federal and provincial programs to find what you qualify for.

Step 3

Ready

See your support path and decide whether to self-serve, book help, or save the journey to a dashboard.

18-month retroactive window

Your SR&ED window is shrinking

Every month you wait is a month of R&D expenses you can never claim back. The CRA allows retroactive SR&ED claims for 18 months — after that, the money is gone. A 2-minute scan tells you exactly what you're leaving on the table.
