# Track Funder Award Patterns Before You Apply

Applying to a funder without understanding their track record wastes time. You need to know the types of organizations they fund, the average award size, the sectors and geographies they favor, and whether applicants like you have ever succeeded.

Grants Finder lets you pull historical award data for any funder, then score your own profile against those patterns. The result is a clear picture of whether a particular funder is a realistic target or a long shot, before you invest in the application.

**Tool:** [Grants Finder](https://toolrouter.com/tools/grants-finder)
**Skills:** search_grant_history, match_applicant_profile
