Santa Monica, CA October 8th, 2025 — Carrot today announced the release of Carrot Platform, a powerful new system that modernizes procurement, grantmaking, and prize management. Designed for organizations that run competitive programs, Carrot Platform brings together everything needed to collect proposals, evaluate solutions, and select the best results — all in one place.
“We’ve spent years helping organizations manage complex, high-stakes competitions,” said Jaison Morgan, CEO of Carrot. “The launch of Carrot Platform represents the culmination of that experience — a faster, smarter, and more intuitive way to manage procurement and grants from start to finish.”
Carrot Platform replaces outdated, manual systems with a unified digital environment that allows teams to design custom applications, recruit and train judges, track results in real time, and communicate seamlessly with participants. Every feature is built for transparency, consistency, and measurable impact.
Key platform capabilities include:
Carrot has supported more than 60 organizations — including NASA, the MacArthur Foundation, and National Geographic — in launching and managing large-scale programs that surface innovative solutions to global challenges. With Carrot Platform, those capabilities are now available in a modern, accessible system purpose-built for scale.
“Carrot Platform is not just a tool — it’s an ecosystem for innovation,” said Morgan. “Our clients needed something built for the complexity and creativity of their work. This is that step forward.”
Carrot Platform is available now.
