Workflow

From sign-up to matched grants in 2 minutes

01

Sign in with ORCID or Google

Enter your name and institution. Takes 30 seconds. No institutional account required — your personal ORCID is enough.

02

We build your research profile

Stella fetches your PubMed publication history, extracts research themes with Claude, and identifies your recent focus — the work you've done in the last 2 years weights more.

03

See your first matches in 2 minutes

Stella runs matching immediately when you complete your profile — no waiting for a nightly job. Matches refresh weekly as new opportunities are posted, and you get a digest email every Sunday.

Why Stella

Built for the way PIs actually find funding

Grant discovery today is mostly luck — you catch a listserv email, a colleague mentions an RFA, or you stumble across a PAR while doing something else. Stella makes it systematic.

Semantic matching, not keyword search

Claude reads your PubMed abstracts, builds a research profile with emphasis on your last 2 years, and scores every opportunity against your actual science — not just grant titles.

Specific Aims skeleton on demand

Click any matched grant to generate a Specific Aims skeleton — three aims, a significance statement, and an innovation paragraph — drafted from your own research profile.

Deadline reminders — 7 days out

Stella emails you when a matched opportunity is 7 days from its deadline, so you never discover a perfect R01 the morning it closes.

Weekly digest in your inbox

Every Sunday at 8pm you get a ranked digest of new and updated matches — tier A (strong fit), B (moderate), and C (stretch) — formatted for a quick scan over coffee.

Specific Aims generator

From match to draft Aims in one click

Click any matched grant to generate a Specific Aims skeleton. Claude drafts three aims, a significance statement, and an innovation paragraph — grounded in your actual publications, not a generic template.

  • Grounded in your PubMed publication history
  • 3 aims + Significance + Innovation sections
  • One-click review and AI critique of your draft
  • Formatted as plain text you can paste directly into Word
Stella — Specific Aims draft

Specific Aims The progesterone receptor (PGR) plays a central role in gestational length, yet the genetic architecture of PGR-mediated effects in admixed populations remains poorly characterized. We identified a genome-wide significant association at PGR V660L (p = 2.1×10⁻⁹) in a EUR–AFR admixed cohort, with strong colocalization with uterine eQTLs (PP.H4 = 0.903). This proposal seeks to characterize the ancestry-stratified functional impact of V660L on gestational age. Aim 1. Define the population-specific effect of PGR V660L ... Aim 2. Determine the tissue-specific regulatory mechanism ... Aim 3. Assess clinical predictors of carrier status ...
