The challenge
Starting every grant proposal presentation from scratch when past ones have been submitted before
No easy way to find how a past successful proposal was structured
Slides from past proposals — methodology diagrams, significance statements — rebuilt rather than reused
Proposal presentation history scattered across individual drives, not shared with the lab
How Slide Barn supports this

What changes when academic researchers teams use Slide Barn

1

All past grant proposals in one searchable library

Upload every grant proposal presentation your lab has submitted to Slide Barn. Every slide is indexed — aims, methodology, significance, budget justification. Find any past proposal by agency, topic, or keyword in seconds rather than searching through email or personal drives.

2

Reuse slides from past funded proposals

Methodology diagrams, significance framing, impact statements, and literature context slides from past proposals are searchable and reusable. Find the version that worked for a previous funded grant and adapt it rather than rebuilding the same content from scratch.

3

Approved lab templates stored for the whole team

Store your lab's approved proposal structure and any standard presentation templates in Slide Barn. Every team member — grad students, postdocs, collaborators — starts from the same approved foundation rather than figuring out the format independently.

Value delivered

What you walk away with

Start from funded work

Past funded proposals searchable by keyword — learn from what reviewers approved before

Reuse before rebuilding

Slides from past proposals are findable and reusable — stop recreating what already exists

Shared lab library

Every team member works from the same searchable proposal history — not isolated on their own drive
