Levier matches a small business's profile against federal, Quebec, municipal, regional and private funding programs: grants, loans, guarantees, tax credits and local funds. Ten questions give a first number. Subscribers then see the list of programs open to their business, the official source of each one, the dated deadlines and the thresholds that will open other doors; for programs filed by application or form, the guided file asks the program's questions, says which documents to gather and gives a Word document to carry over to the official form.
The database holds more than 1,400 programs. Their official sources are reread every month, and each program sheet shows the date of its last check. The radar's title gives the largest non-repayable aid to check for your project, calculated from the published rate on your budget; it adds nothing up. A sheet whose source could not be verified is marked “to confirm”. Results remain indicative: every program must be validated against its official normative framework before any application is filed.
The subscription is yearly ($390) or monthly ($49), plus tax. No percentage is taken from the funding obtained, and a 14-day guarantee tied to the service's promise applies to an account's first yearly subscription. Levier is designed and run by ASGO, the business name of BORÉAL.IA inc., a company based in Québec City; data is hosted in Quebec.
