Horizon Europe Proposals Don’t Fail Because of the Science
They fail because they’re unclear, misaligned, or hard to evaluate. I fix that—before you submit.

Why choose me
Where Proposals Lose Points
Even strong proposals fail for predictable reasons.
Misalignment with the call
Strong ideas fail when they don’t match what evaluators are actually scoring.
Weak impact logic
“Transformative” claims without clear pathways lose credibility immediately.
Confusing work packages
If evaluators can’t follow the structure, they won’t trust execution.
Overcomplex writing
If it takes effort to understand, it won’t get funded.
Lack of narrative clarity
If the story isn’t clear, evaluators won’t connect the pieces—or the value.
Overambitious scope
Trying to do too much reduces credibility and increases perceived risk.
Services

Benefits
Key benefits that set me apart from other firms
Evaluator-Level Thinking
I review proposals the way evaluators actually read them—under time pressure, scoring for clarity, credibility, and risk.
Focus on What Gets Funded (Not Just Good Science)
Strong science is not enough. I help you align your proposal with what Horizon Europe actually funds.
Fast, High-Impact Feedback
Within 48 hours, you get clear, prioritized actions—not vague comments or academic feedback.
Brutally Honest, Actionable Insights
I don’t provide polite feedback—I show you exactly where you’re losing points and how to fix it.
Structural Clarity That Builds Confidence
I ensure your proposal is easy to follow, logically structured, and instantly credible to evaluators.
Strategic Positioning, Not Just Editing
I help position your proposal so it clearly fits the call and stands out in a competitive evaluation process.
