## Description

Securely connect your AI agents and chatbots (Claude, ChatGPT, Cursor, etc) with Granted MCP or direct API to discover grant opportunities, compare eligibility criteria, track application deadlines, and shortlist relevant funders through natural language.

## Summary

Granted MCP is a grant discovery service for finding funding opportunities across funders.
It helps teams compare eligibility details and deadlines without digging through scattered grant portals.

## Categories

- finance & accounting

## Suggested Prompts

- Find grants matching our nonprofit mission
- List upcoming grant deadlines this month
- Check eligibility for federal research grants

## Supported Tools

| Tool slug | Name | Description |
|---|---|---|
| `GRANTED_MCP_GET_FUNDER` | Get funder | Get a full foundation profile including mission, 5-year financials, recent grants awarded, key officers, and application info. Accepts a foundation slug (from search_funders results) or EIN (e.g. '13-1684331'). |
| `GRANTED_MCP_GET_GRANT` | Get grant | Get full details for a specific grant by its slug. Returns eligibility criteria, application link, deadline, amount, funder info, and tags. Use search_grants first to find valid slugs. |
| `GRANTED_MCP_GET_PAST_WINNERS` | Get past winners | Competitive intelligence: see who has won a specific federal grant program. Shows top recipients grouped by organization with award counts, total funding, and year-over-year trends. Filter by CFDA number, agency, program name, or state. Supports agency abbreviations: NIH, NSF, EPA, DOE, DOD, USDA, NASA, SBA, etc. |
| `GRANTED_MCP_SEARCH_FUNDERS` | Search funders | Search 133,000+ US foundations by name, state, NTEE code, asset range, and annual income range. Returns key metrics: name, state, total assets, annual income (from IRS 990), NTEE category, and mission. Use get_funder with the returned slug for full profiles including actual giving history. |
| `GRANTED_MCP_SEARCH_GRANTS` | Search grants | Search 140,000+ grant opportunities by keyword, state, source type, funder, and more. Uses semantic search (embeddings + full-text + scoring) combined with live AI-powered web discovery for comprehensive results. Returns active grants ranked by relevance with fit scores, deadlines, amounts, and application links. Use this as the starting point to find relevant grants. |

## Installation and MCP Setup

### Path 1: SDK Installation

#### Path 1, Step 1: Install Composio

Install the Composio SDK
```python
pip install composio_openai
```

```typescript
npm install @composio/openai
```

#### Path 1, Step 2: Initialize Composio and Create Tool Router Session

Import and initialize Composio client, then create a Tool Router session
```python
from openai import OpenAI
from composio import Composio
from composio_openai import OpenAIResponsesProvider

composio = Composio(provider=OpenAIResponsesProvider())
openai = OpenAI()
session = composio.create(user_id='your-user-id')
```

```typescript
import OpenAI from 'openai';
import { Composio } from '@composio/core';
import { OpenAIResponsesProvider } from '@composio/openai';

const composio = new Composio({
  provider: new OpenAIResponsesProvider(),
});
const openai = new OpenAI({});
const session = await composio.create('your-user-id');
```

#### Path 1, Step 3: Execute Granted MCP Tools via Tool Router with Your Agent

Get tools from Tool Router session and execute Granted MCP actions with your Agent
```python
tools = session.tools
response = openai.responses.create(
  model='gpt-4.1',
  tools=tools,
  input=[{
    'role': 'user',
    'content': 'Find grant opportunities for a climate education nonprofit with deadlines in the next 90 days'
  }]
)
result = composio.provider.handle_tool_calls(
  response=response,
  user_id='your-user-id'
)
print(result)
```

```typescript
const tools = session.tools;
const response = await openai.responses.create({
  model: 'gpt-4.1',
  tools: tools,
  input: [{
    role: 'user',
    content: 'Find grant opportunities for a climate education nonprofit with deadlines in the next 90 days'
  }],
});
const result = await composio.provider.handleToolCalls(
  'your-user-id',
  response.output
);
console.log(result);
```

### Path 2: MCP Server Setup

#### Path 2, Step 1: Install Composio

Install the Composio SDK for Python or TypeScript
```python
pip install composio claude-agent-sdk
```

```typescript
npm install @composio/core ai @ai-sdk/openai @ai-sdk/mcp
```

#### Path 2, Step 2: Initialize Client and Create Tool Router Session

Import and initialize the Composio client, then create a Tool Router session for Granted MCP
```python
from composio import Composio
from claude_agent_sdk import ClaudeSDKClient, ClaudeAgentOptions

composio = Composio(api_key='your-composio-api-key')
session = composio.create(user_id='your-user-id')
url = session.mcp.url
```

```typescript
import { Composio } from '@composio/core';

const composio = new Composio({ apiKey: 'your-api-key' });
const session = await composio.create('your-user-id');
console.log(`Tool Router session created: ${session.mcp.url}`);
```

#### Path 2, Step 3: Connect to AI Agent

Use the MCP server with your AI agent (Anthropic Claude or Mastra)
```python
import asyncio

options = ClaudeAgentOptions(
    permission_mode='bypassPermissions',
    mcp_servers={
        'tool_router': {
            'type': 'http',
            'url': url,
            'headers': {
                'x-api-key': 'your-composio-api-key'
            }
        }
    },
    system_prompt='You are a helpful assistant with access to Granted MCP tools.',
    max_turns=10
)

async def main():
    async with ClaudeSDKClient(options=options) as client:
        await client.query('Find grant opportunities for a climate education nonprofit with deadlines in the next 90 days')
        async for message in client.receive_response():
            if hasattr(message, 'content'):
                for block in message.content:
                    if hasattr(block, 'text'):
                        print(block.text)

asyncio.run(main())
```

```typescript
import { openai } from '@ai-sdk/openai';
import { experimental_createMCPClient as createMCPClient } from '@ai-sdk/mcp';
import { generateText } from 'ai';

const client = await createMCPClient({
  transport: {
    type: 'http',
    url: session.mcp.url,
    headers: {
      'x-api-key': 'your-composio-api-key',
    },
  },
});

const tools = await client.tools();
const { text } = await generateText({
  model: openai('gpt-4o'),
  tools,
  messages: [{
    role: 'user',
    content: 'Find grant opportunities for a climate education nonprofit with deadlines in the next 90 days'
  }],
  maxSteps: 5,
});

console.log(`Agent: ${text}`);
```

## Why Use Composio?

### 1. AI Native Granted MCP Integration

- Supports both Granted MCP and direct API based integrations
- Structured, LLM-friendly schemas for reliable grant search and filtering
- Rich coverage for discovering opportunities, checking eligibility, and tracking deadlines

- No OAuth apps, API keys, or token refresh flows to manage
- Composio still gives you a central place to route, monitor, and control agent access

### 3. Agent Optimized Design

- Tools are tuned using real error and success rates to improve grant discovery reliability over time
- Clear tool schemas help agents ask for funder matches, eligibility details, and deadline windows correctly
- Comprehensive execution logs so you always know what grant searches ran, when, and on whose behalf

### 4. Enterprise Grade Security

- Fine-grained RBAC so you control which agents and users can access Granted MCP
- Scoped access patterns for grant research workflows across teams and environments
- Full audit trail of agent actions to support internal review and compliance

## Frequently Asked Questions

### Do I need my own developer credentials to use Granted MCP with Composio?

No. Granted MCP uses NO_AUTH in Composio, so you don't need developer credentials to search grant opportunities. Composio still manages the Tool Router session, execution logs, and access controls for your agents.

### Can I use multiple toolkits together?

Yes! Composio's Tool Router enables agents to use multiple toolkits. [Learn more](https://docs.composio.dev/tool-router/overview).

### Is Composio secure?

Composio is SOC 2 and ISO 27001 compliant with all data encrypted in transit and at rest. [Learn more](https://trust.composio.dev).

### What if the API changes?

Composio maintains and updates all toolkit integrations automatically, so your agents always work with the latest API versions.
