WeGrant has launched a new version of its platform, aimed at solving one of the main bottlenecks to business growth in Europe: turning real investments into fundable projects, reducing the administrative complexity of public subsidies, and connecting companies with bank and private financing at the moment they need it most.
The new platform is suited for businesses, banks, consulting firms, and project developers. Its offering combines specialized artificial intelligence, grant data, eligibility analysis, document generation, expert review, and financial guidance in a single environment.
The launch represents a meaningful leap forward from the traditional model of public aid management, historically based on manual searches, fragmented processes, complex documentation, and heavy reliance on intermediaries. WeGrant proposes a different model: an AI-native platform where the company can identify opportunities, assess fit, generate technical documentation, collaborate with specialized consultants, and activate financing linked to the project.
“Public funding cannot remain a process reserved for those who have time, structure, or capacity to overcome the barriers and bureaucracy. Our goal is that any company with an investment project can understand what subsidies are available, what the probability of success is, how to structure its project, and how it can finance it,” says Francisco Estevan, founder and CEO of WeGrant.
AI for writing projects, but with traceability, control, and expert review
One of the main advances of the new platform is the evolution toward WAIGRANT, the AI system developed by WeGrant to assist in generating projects, technical memos, and documentation linked to public subsidies, tax deductions, and investment incentives.
Unlike solutions based on generic prompts, WAIGRANT operates on its own knowledge architecture, with information retrieval models, specialized document databases, eligibility criteria, technical examples, consulting methodology, and the traceability of the generation process.
The platform enables generating structured project drafts, but also reviewing sources, detecting gaps, identifying risks, improving technical coherence, and facilitating final validation by specialized consultants.
“We’re not launching a prompt. We’re building a layer of specialized intelligence on public funding, with expert knowledge, traceability, and human review. AI does not replace the consultant: it enables them to work better, faster, and with more focus on what truly adds value,” explains Estevan.
With this approach, WeGrant aims to address a growing concern in the use of AI applied to business documentation: the need for generated content to be auditable, revisable, and defensible before administrations, financial institutions, and evaluating bodies.
From subsidy platform to financial platform
The second major axis of the launch is WeGrant’s evolution toward a more financial model. The company strengthens its ability to connect public subsidies, tax incentives, and private financing, addressing one of the market’s biggest gaps: many companies identify subsidies, but fail to structure the investment financially or anticipate the resources needed to execute it.
The new platform enables detecting future investments, fundable projects, pre-financing needs, green financing opportunities, innovation operations, leasing, supplier finance (confirming), factoring, guarantees, or project loans with potential public support.
This approach becomes especially relevant in the new post-Next Generation stage, where public subsidies stop being merely a grant tool and become a lever to activate business investment, reduce risk, improve the bankability of projects, and generate new value conversations between banks and clients.
In this context, WeGrant is strengthening its collaboration with financial institutions so that banks can accompany their clients not only in identifying subsidies but also in securing complementary financing for projects.
“Public subsidies should not be understood as a standalone process, but as a tool to activate business investment to drive growth. If a company has a subsidizable project, it likely also has a financial need. That’s where banking can play a much more strategic role,” says Estevan.
Cross-border operations in five European countries
The third novelty is the platform’s international dimension. WeGrant aims to position itself as one of the first European subsidies platforms with cross-border operating capabilities, currently working in Spain, France, Portugal, the Netherlands, and Poland.
This reflects a growing market reality: companies no longer design their investments solely with a national lens. Increasingly, corporate groups need to compare financing opportunities across countries, locate tax incentives, analyze regional or national subsidies, and structure international projects with varying levels of public support.
The new version of WeGrant enables moving toward a model in which a company can analyze, from a single environment, where it makes the most sense to execute an investment, what programs exist in each country, what level of subsidy it can obtain, and which financial partners or consultants can support the operation.
“Europe has a huge amount of public resources for innovation, industry, digitization, sustainability, and competitiveness, but access remains too fragmented. Our goal is to build a platform that enables cross-border operation, comparison of opportunities, and the connection of subsidies, financing, and execution,” explains Elena Femenía, COO of WeGrant.
