Good Grants runs applications for grant programs, awards and scholarships. FlowMattic posts the steps of each application to Slack: submitted, found eligible or ineligible, moderated, allocated and paid. Program officers follow the round from a channel, and finance hears about payment changes without waiting for a report.

Each one uses only triggers and actions the two integrations ship today, plus FlowMattic's own tools. Where the library has a ready-made template, import it instead of building from scratch.
Ready-made templateA submitted application is ready for review. The program team sees the applicant and category in Slack and can start checking it the same day.
Application SubmittedSend Channel Message
View the template Application Eligible means the entry cleared your eligibility checks. Posting it to the reviewers' channel lets them pick it up without waiting for a batch.
Application EligibleSend Channel Message
Automated eligibility can reject good applicants over a missing answer. A private channel lists ineligible applications so an officer can look before the applicant is told.
Application IneligibleSend Private Channel Message
Payment Status Changed posts each grant payment's new status to the finance channel, so failed or delayed payments to grantees are followed up.
Payment Status ChangedSend Private Channel Message
When funds are allocated to an application, the committee channel hears about the amount and recipient, so members know the decision has been recorded.
Allocation CreatedNumber FormatterSend Channel Message
A Counter adds one for each User Registered event and the running total goes into the channel topic, so staff see how many people have started the process.

A trigger starts a workflow. An action is something FlowMattic does in the app as a step.
Good Grants and Slack connect through FlowMattic on your own site, with no separate automation account in the middle and no charge per run.
Reviewers, officers, the committee and finance each get the events for their part of the round, in their own channel.
Ineligible results posted for a human check give borderline applicants a second look before they are turned away.
FlowMattic runs on your own WordPress site with unlimited runs, so a round with thousands of applications costs nothing extra to automate.
Connect Slack in FlowMattic, start a workflow with the Good Grants Application Submitted trigger and add Send Channel Message. Map the applicant and category, submit a test application and switch the workflow on.
