Raise Lens for climate founders
You are building the company. You do not have a person whose job is watching 120+ funding sources.
Raise Lens does that part. Grants, tenders, accelerator calls, foundation programmes, climate VCs and corporate venture, and the corporate commitments that telegraph procurement months early, pulled into one classified feed you can filter to your sector, stage and geography in about a minute. Private capital sits alongside the grants, not off to the side, because a growth round is a funding route too.

Every card shows the funder, deadline, value band and a two-sentence plain-English summary, with a link to the original application page. Nothing here is generated from thin air; every record traces back to a live source page. How that works is documented in How we source data.
How would I use it?
- Set up your profile once: sectors, geography, stage. Takes two minutes in the onboarding wizard.
- Check the feed weekly, or let the weekly digest email do the checking (Pro). Filter noise out with the dismiss button; it learns nothing, it just hides.
- Save anything with a plausible deadline to your dashboard. Fresh activity on saved items gets flagged on your next visit.
- Watch the intel feed for what is coming, not just what is open. A corporate net zero commitment often precedes the supplier RFP by 6 to 18 months. Seeing it early is the difference between pitching first and responding late.
