3 pilot places for 2027

The operating system for EU grant consortia.

Every partner enters its own figures, and Arturion checks them against 33 Horizon Europe rules across the whole consortium, while there is still time to fix them.

215 days across grants

Remind Partner 3

Every rule traces back to

  • Model Grant Agreement
  • Annotated Grant Agreement
  • Periodic reporting templates
  • Funding & Tenders Portal

You hold the grant together.

Every period, the spreadsheets go out to the partners and come back late, in different layouts, to be merged by hand. The Portal checks the figures only after they are declared, when a fix means another round with everyone.

6 days

Each partner spends a median 6 person-days per period on financial reporting, by the Commission’s own evaluation of Horizon Europe.

3 in 4

new multi-partner Horizon Europe grants pay by lump sum, in the 2026 and 2027 calls so far.

Every partner

working on a lump sum work package has to finish its part before the package can be declared complete and paid. One late partner holds up the rest.

The checks run across every partner, during the period.

33 rules, each with its written source, run on every entry. Arturion shows you only the ones that need you.

Partner data and AI

Partners keep their salaries.

Salaries and each person’s days stay with the partner organisation. You see totals, check results and whatever a partner releases to you.

Why I'm building Arturion

Adrián Dvorský, founder of Arturion

Space is where this started for me. I’ve liked to discover and create things for as long as I can remember, and Stargate SG-1, my favourite show, turned that into a passion for space and science fiction. When I looked closely at how European space companies get funded, I saw teams with excellent technology losing time and bids to paperwork, formats and process rules.

I’m Adrián, a product and delivery manager from Slovakia. For over a decade I’ve worked across fintech, e-commerce, B2B software and digital studios, leading product specification, pre-sales discovery and delivery on complex projects. At the same time, I taught at a private high school, which is where I learned to explain complicated things clearly to people who didn’t ask to be taught them. I build products for a living, so I started building one for this.

My goal is to take that friction away for every EU grant consortium, space included. The people doing the research should spend their hours on what they are good at, and the administration around funding should run in the background.

Pay only when your grant is funded. Partners never pay.

Proposals are free. A running project costs 15 € a month for each organisation in the consortium, and only the coordinator pays.

What coordinators ask first

Can we start on a project that's already running?

Yes. Enter the values from your signed Grant Agreement, or paste its tables. Your partners confirm their lines, and the checks start from the current period.

What do my partners have to do?

Accept your invitation, then fill in the tasks you send them: guided forms for hours, costs and work package progress. Arturion checks each entry when they save it and tells them what to fix.

Can I see my partners' salaries?

No. Salaries and each person's days stay with the partner organisation. You see totals, check results and whatever a partner releases to you.

Who is responsible if a check misses something?

The partner that declares a cost stays responsible for it, as the grant agreement says. Arturion's checks give earlier warning, with the rule and its source. They are not a guarantee.

Do we still submit in the Portal?

Yes, you submit in the Funding & Tenders Portal as you do now. Arturion gives you each partner's financial statement data and the periodic report as copy-ready views, in the order of the Portal's fields.

Is it an eligible cost?

Each project is invoiced separately for the months the grant runs. Whether you can charge that invoice to your grant as a direct cost depends on the grant, and we're asking National Contact Points to confirm the general rule.

We already use Excel and Teams.

Keep Teams and SharePoint for meetings and documents. Move only the figures: partners enter them in Arturion instead of sending spreadsheets, and the checks run as they arrive.

Do my partners need an account?

Yes, a free one. They accept your invitation and add an authenticator app, the same kind of two-step sign-in EU Login asks for. It takes about three minutes, and Arturion then remembers their browser for 30 days. Partners enter salaries and signed time records, so an auditor has to see who entered what.

Does it work for lump-sum grants?

Yes. For each work package Arturion shows which partners have confirmed their part is complete, which packages you can declare complete and which are waiting for whom. It also checks budget transfers between partners and collects the evidence behind each package.

Does AI decide anything?

No. AI drafts text from checked figures, a person accepts it, and only the rules set a check's result.

What happens when the grant ends?

After the final report you stop paying. Coming: a read-only archive that stays free until the audit window closes, two years after the final payment, and an audit pack export.

Three pilot places, at half price for the life of the grant.

You see each part as it is built, try it on sample data or your own, and shape what comes next.

  • Arturion on one running Horizon Europe project
  • Half price for the life of the grant
  • Onboarding for you and your partners
  • A direct line to our product team

Built to pass your data protection review

  • Hosted in the EU with an ISO 27001-certified provider. Two-step sign-in for every user.
  • An external penetration test runs before any real partner data enters the system.
  • Every rule names its written source, so you can check it yourself.

Three short steps, about one minute. Partners always use Arturion free.
