About ClevaBiz
Finding business funding shouldn't be this hard
It's a Tuesday afternoon. You're at your shop, your office, or your kitchen table running a growing business. You have a plan — new equipment, a digital upgrade, expansion into a new market.
And somewhere out there — you know it — there's funding for that.
But where?
The problem we solve
The US has over 1,500 active business funding programs — federal grants, SBA loans, SBIR/STTR, government contracts, state economic development programs. In theory, great news. In practice, a maze.
The research takes time most small business owners don't have. So what usually happens:
- You Google it, find 50 results, understand 3
- Your accountant says “talk to a grant consultant”
- You put it off until “next week”
- Next week becomes next quarter
- The program closes
Billions in unclaimed business funding go unused every year.Not because businesses don't qualify — because finding and matching the right programs takes too long.
We built ClevaBiz to fix that.
Our story
ClevaBiz started with a simple question: Why is this so unnecessarily complicated?
We spoke with contractors who passed on energy efficiency grants because they couldn't spend 20 hours researching. With founders who didn't know their state had a grant for exactly their idea. With established businesses that found out about available funding only after they'd already made the investment.
The pattern was always the same: the information exists — it's just not where you are when you need it.
What we believe
Small businesses deserve equal access
Large corporations have entire departments tracking government programs. We think a 12-person manufacturing shop deserves the same intelligence — without the overhead.
Honesty over hype
We won't promise guaranteed funding — that would be dishonest. What we give you: clarity. The specific programs that match your profile, explained in plain English. In minutes, not weeks.
Simple beats complicated
If a program has 40 pages of eligibility criteria, we summarize what matters. You get what you need to decide whether to apply — without a law degree.
What makes ClevaBiz different

2 minutes. 4 questions. Then you see which programs fit your business. No forced sign-up. No sales calls. Just results.
Current, not stale

Independent
We don't receive referral fees from program administrators or consultants. We show you what fits — not what pays us.
