This is a Medicaid financial operating system for grant-dependent organizations. This web app is for a grant manager or finance director at a nonprofit or healthcare org drowning in manual work — tracking multiple grants with different reporting requirements, budget allocations, compliance deadlines, manual data entry across spreadsheets, reconciliation between grant rules and actual spend.
This will be a SaaS app with a subscription model. Users belonging to the same organization will be able to access the app and the data related to that organization, ensuring strict data isolation.
