## What is Callisto?

Callisto is the career infrastructure for working artists - discovery, applications, CV, and deadlines in one place.

Whether you're applying for your first residency or your fiftieth grant, Callisto helps you find the right opportunities, keep every deadline in view, and put together stronger applications - without drowning in tabs, spreadsheets, and bookmark folders.

Browse grants, residencies, open calls, awards, and exhibition opportunities from organizations around the world, updated regularly. Filter by region, medium, career stage, eligibility, and fee.

▸ Personalized fit
Tell Callisto about your practice, medium, and career stage and see opportunities ranked by how well they match your profile, so you spend time on the calls that actually fit.

▸ Draft applications faster
Use Callisto Drafts - AI-assisted writing tools that help you put together artist statements, project proposals, and application answers based on your portfolio and goals. You stay in control - every draft is yours to edit, refine, and submit.

▸ Build your artist CV
Create and maintain a professional artist CV with your exhibitions, residencies, awards, publications, and education - formatted to industry standards and ready to export.

### 5/5 — Life changing

*2026-08-18*

I am a full time artist and for the last 3 years I spent half of my work time looking for opportunities, which diluted my creative energy. Callisto is doing that part for me, All the searching and FOMO is gone and I’m spending more time doing what I do love doing; applying to the grands, and creating work. 
Also, the app will remind you of the deadline and this is literally replacing my open call calendar, I don’t have to worry about my favorite grand passing. GAME CHANGER!!

### 4/5 — Missing music

*2026-07-24*

Can we please get categories for musicians, singers, composers? The onboarding process already shows this to be skewed toward non-musicians (e.g. I had to choose 'sound art' as my practice; music wasn't an option). Other than that, love abd appreciate this app!

**Developer response:** Thanks for your feedback! We’re already working on it and will have it done in the near future 🖖🏼

### 5/5 — Super app
