Who We Serve

Scale your readiness work across more countries without scaling your team.

Delivery Partners operate at the front end of climate finance — building the institutional foundations, policies, and early-stage proposals that make countries ready to access funding. CFI gives Delivery Partners a research and drafting engine that travels with them, country by country.

What They're Saying

"Integrating this software into our workflow means we can deliver superior quality proposals faster. This isn't about replacing expertise — it's about amplifying it."
Qavah Earth · Cape Town
"The ability to rapidly evaluate a concept note against Donor criteria is a game-changer. It saved us days of work and allowed us to deliver a superior product at a fraction of the traditional cost."
Project Developer · South Africa
"It would be wise to have the Concept Note Evaluator in the initial assessment and in the final stage as well. Useful for project developers, private players, and Donor applicants with limited experience."
Development Bank · Southern Africa
"The Converter tool was a lifesaver, migrating our Concept Note to the new Donor format in under two hours. The summary of changes would have taken us days of research."
Project Proponent · Africa
"I found your AI assistants very helpful in organizing ideas and aligning them with Donor criteria. Most importantly, it saved loads of time."
International Delivery Partner · Africa
"The Concept Note Converter has been an invaluable resource that bridges this gap, ensuring our CNs were aligned with the latest Donor standards."

Delivery Partners

You build the foundations that make funding possible. CFI makes that work faster.

The Business Case for CFI
Delivery Partners carry readiness mandates across multiple countries simultaneously, often with lean teams and limited per-country research capacity. CFI makes it possible to deliver higher-quality country packages faster — without proportionally scaling headcount. Country-specific retrieval and Donor-aligned readiness frameworks mean your team spends less time on background synthesis and more time on the strategic judgements only your staff can make. More countries served. Stronger deliverables. Same team size.
Country-specific from the first query
CFI's corpus includes national policy documentation — NDCs, National Adaptation Plans, and National Communications — maintained separately by geography. When you're working in a new country, the research starts with that country's actual climate commitments, not generic guidance.
Readiness proposals, built faster
Structure readiness grant requests against the criteria Donors use to evaluate them — with comparable precedent projects retrieved and cited automatically. Draft faster, submit stronger, and move on to the next country engagement without losing quality.
Capacity you can hand off
CFI outputs are fully cited and traceable, making them easier to hand off to in-country teams and national authorities. The work product builds institutional understanding — not dependency on the consultant who produced it.
The CFI Toolkit

The tools that matter most for readiness work.

From country-specific research to pre-submission concept note review — CFI covers the readiness workflow end to end.

Understanding the Landscape

Delivery Partners and Accredited Entities play different roles — CFI serves both.

The tools that matter differ by where you sit in the climate finance pipeline.

Delivery Partners
Readiness, policy, and capacity building
Focus on preparatory work — writing readiness grant requests, designing adaptation policies, training local institutions, and shaping early-stage concept notes before full project accreditation. Do not always require full financial accreditation to guide initial nation-building tasks. CFI provides country-specific research, drafting support, and concept note quality checks for this work.
Accredited Entities
Full-scale project management and implementation
Directly manage, fund, and execute large-scale financial mitigation or adaptation projects approved by the Donor board. Carry out proposal development, project management, and outcome monitoring — often across multiple geographies simultaneously. CFI supports the full proposal development arc from research through submission-ready draft.
Built for multi-country practices

One platform. Every country engagement.

Delivery Partners working across multiple countries can deploy CFI with their own institutional documents loaded into the Resource Center — internal templates, country briefs, Donor readiness frameworks — so every consultant on the team is working from the same knowledge base, regardless of which country they're in.
