Reviewing your matches

Sorting, filtering, and what each piece of a match row tells you.

Updated 5/14/2026

This page describes a feature that may not be enabled for your account.

My Matches is the list of funding opportunities the system has connected to your profile. Each row shows the fit, the sponsor and title, the deadline, and a set of quick actions.

Sorting

The sort control at the top of the list offers three orders:

  • Match — best fit first (default).
  • Deadline — soonest deadline first.
  • Funding — largest funding amount first.

Filtering

  • Fit — limit to higher-fit matches when you only want to see the strongest results.
  • Pursuit status — show only matches where you've signaled interest, marked Not a Fit, or not yet responded.

New match indicator

Matches added since your last visit are flagged with a "New" pill. The banner at the top lets you mark them all as seen at once.

What's on a match row

  • Fit — the overall alignment between you and the opportunity. See How fit scores are calculated for what feeds it.
  • Deadline badge — color-coded by urgency. See Deadline badges.
  • Reasons — short icon-mapped tags that explain what aligned and what didn't (topic match, eligibility, prior funding, and so on).
  • Actions — expand for the full opportunity, signal interest, mark Not a Fit, save, share with a colleague, or request help.

Deep links

When you open a match from email or the inbox, the page scrolls to that match and expands it automatically so you land directly on the detail.

Locked Not-a-Fit matches

Marking a match Not a Fit removes it from My Matches but preserves your response in All Opportunities. Your decision overrides future re-scoring of that opportunity for you.
