What we do

Gliding Ant Ventures is the partner for frontier and deep tech founders. We offer services tailored to help founders find funding, grow their startups, or plan exit strategies.

Grant writers will fish for you - we’ll teach you how to fish.

We help you maximize the value of your Phase I SBIR or STTR grant application, minimize time spent, and increase your chances of funding success.

Over eight weeks, we serve as a guide and partner as you write your application.

We accelerate your writing with templates, checklists, and a step-by-step work plan.

We provide video tutorials on all aspects of the grant writing process, from building a team to developing an R&D plan to using software tools effectively.

You receive regular feedback and a detailed final review of your application from folks who have secured over $10M in grants from multiple federal and state agencies, including NIH/CDC, DOE, DARPA, NSF, Navy, USDA, and NOAA.

Our next cohort will start May 7th, 2025.
