78 funding calls about AI are open or announced, out of the 2,014 open or announced calls the funders' feeds list. Every call links to its official page, and every value is the feed's own: nothing here is summarised by a model. The feeds were last read on 30 Oct 2026. A call leaves this page on the day its last deadline passes.

How this list is made
Our funding engine reads the funders' own feeds by code: the search service behind the EU Funding & Tenders Portal (grant topics, external action calls and the open calls of EU-funded projects), every forecasted and posted opportunity on grants.gov, the scheme pages of RVO, and a short list of programme pages no feed carries. A call is on this page when it is open or announced, a deadline is still ahead (or none is set yet), and it is about AI: artificial intelligence, machine learning, AI or large language models are in its title, or in at least two sentences of its description that are about the work it funds. A passing mention ("technologies such as AI") or a rule about using AI to write the proposal does not count. Budgets are the feed's own words: an EU topic's budget is for the whole topic, not one grant, and a US figure is the posting's award ceiling. Read the official page before you apply: eligibility, the share a project must fund itself and the documents to file are there.
