## Who we are

Amy Berg is Founder and Lead Strategist. She has 20+ years in nonprofit and small-business strategy, federal funding, and non-dilutive capital. Work includes foundation and corporate grants, federal programs, and competitive SBIR/STTR for biotech and AI companies.

She also writes After Scarcity, a project on cooperation-first AI.

## What we do

- Grant writing for nonprofits: foundation, corporate, and federal proposals
- Grant writing for deep-tech founders: SBIR/STTR and other non-dilutive federal programs
- Agencies named on the site: NIH, NSF, Department of Education, DOJ, USDA, SAMHSA, SBIR/STTR
- Strategic planning: facilitated roadmaps, board alignment, 3–5 year strategy
- Development counsel: prospect research, donor lists, fundraising capacity beyond a single grant
- LaunchReview: rapid funding-readiness assessment; AI review of a draft, with optional human review or writing by Amy

We do not guarantee funding. LaunchReview critiques the applicant’s own draft. It does not copy language from other funded grants or reuse a customer’s proposal as an example without written permission.
