# Funding for your development project

We build software and AI solutions for projects that seek public funding. We do not write funding applications ourselves. Our partners do that work, and we are happy to point you to the right one.

[Tell us about your project](https://vertics.co/en/rahoitus/#lomake)

## What funding is available

Funding ranges from a few thousand euros to EU level projects. The right source depends on what you are building and where your company is.

- **Business Finland**

  Innovation and development funding for companies that build something new and aim to grow.
- **Innovation voucher**

  Smaller support, for example to build a prototype or test a new idea.
- **Regional development centre**

  Development grants for SME development and growth projects.
- **EU funding**

  For larger projects, often together with other companies or research organisations.

## How we help

1. **Assessment**

   We go through the project and your company. We tell you which funding could fit and point you to the right partner for the application.
2. **Plan**

   We make the technical plan, effort estimate and schedule that the application needs.
3. **Application**

   Our partner or your own company writes the application. We do not write funding applications.
4. **Delivery**

   Once the decision is in, we build the solution in small agile steps.

## What funders look at

- What is new in the project
- How it grows the business
- Can the company deliver the project
- Are the budget and own share in order

## Typical projects

- **Prototype**

  A quick experiment to test the idea. A prototype typically takes about 7 to 10 person days.
- **MVP**

  A first version you can put in front of users. Effort starts from about 50 person days.
- **AI project**

  AI as part of a process or product, for example an AI agent or putting data to use.

## Frequently asked

Do you write the application for us?

We do not write funding applications ourselves. Our partners do that work, and we are happy to point you to the right one. The applicant is always your company.

Who owns the results of the work?

You do. The results of the work and the intellectual property belong to you.

Can a prototype alone be funded?

Yes. A small prototype is often a good first step, and there are funding types for it.
