Funding your AI

Most of this can be paid for.

In Portugal and Canada, governments are actively subsidizing AI adoption. If you're going to put AI to work anyway, a large share of the cost may come back to you. We build the work that qualifies; your accountant confirms what you can claim.

Funding support

Build the project. Document the work.

You appear to be in the US, where there is no single AI grant; the programs below are for our Portugal and Canada clients. Ask us what applies to you.

Portugal · EU

The PRR "AI for SMEs" grant

Check current programme terms

Funding programmes have specific application windows and eligibility rules. Your grant specialist confirms the current terms; we scope the implementation and documentation for the proposed project.

  • We scope and deliver the project agreed with your team.
  • We work alongside your contabilista and a grant specialist, who handle the application and confirm eligibility.
  • We agree invoicing and delivery requirements before an engagement begins.
Grant terms, eligibility, and deadlines are set by the program and change; this is not grant or accounting advice. We point you to the right people and build the work.
Canada

Development documentation for specialist review

Eligibility is assessed separately

We document the software development, technical work and project records. Your Canadian tax adviser determines whether a claim is available and how it should be filed.

  • When we build custom AI for you (Bespoke, Sovereign, automation), the development work may be SR&ED-eligible.
  • We document the build so your accountant or a SR&ED specialist can assess and file the claim.
  • Any credit depends on the relevant rules and assessment; we do not guarantee an award.
SR&ED eligibility is determined by the CRA and your tax advisor; this is not tax advice. We deliver and document the development; the claim is theirs to make.
United States

No grant hook, so we lead with the return

There's no single SME AI grant in the US the way there is in Portugal. Some R&D tax treatment may apply to custom development; your accountant is the one to ask. For US clients we lead the same way we always do: a paid audit, a fast win, and proof you can measure, like the live demos you can try on our homepage.

Any tax treatment of development costs is for your accountant to determine. We build and document; we don't give tax advice.
How we fit

We build. They fund. You decide.

Feerasta is a builder, not a grant consultancy and not your accountant. We stay in our lane: we deliver and document the AI work to the standard these programs expect, and we connect you with the specialists who handle the paperwork and confirm what you can claim. Clean, honest, and in your favor.
