Read directly from the server with tools/list, grouped by what they act on.
If a tool disappears, we record the date.
grail
grail_appraise
PREMIUM. Full GrailQualify appraisal + eligibility-prep payload: live valuation with all comps & scrape date, scheduled-insurance under-coverage gap, grading worth-it call — each rule-cited with authority hand-off. Pay-per-call via x402 (USDC on Base).
grail_value
Value a collector's item from live retail + sold comps (DropWatch price-history) and return a confidence-tiered estimate with the comp shops and scrape date. Free preview of the value; the full appraisal+eligibility prep payload is the premium tool grail_appraise.
applyby
applyby_deadlines
Given a household situation, return the application / recertification / reporting deadlines for the benefits the person likely qualifies for — each with its CFR/statute cite and administering body. The reminder annuity's data spine.
benefit
hr_benefit_scan
Detect under-used EMPLOYER benefits an employee qualifies for (dependent-care FSA, student-loan repayment, fertility/IVF, HSA match), from the plan + the employee's situation. EMPLOYER-PAYS B2B2C, ERISA-aware, non-medical — information + enrollment-nudge only; the plan administrator decides. Hands off to HR / the SPD.
charity
charity_care_check
Detect likely eligibility for a nonprofit hospital's charity-care / financial-assistance (501(r)) + state charity-care law + No Surprises Act, from income vs the Federal Poverty Level. FREE PATIENT INFORMATION — this care is free if you qualify; we never charge a patient to access it. Hands off to the hospital's financial-assistance office.
citizenship
citizenship_descent
Detect eligibility for a second citizenship by ancestry (Italy / Ireland / Poland / Germany), citing each country's descent rule + generational limit + the cut-off that most often breaks a claim. INFORMATION + DOCUMENT-CHECKLIST ONLY — recognition is decided by the foreign government; hands off to the consulate / a citizenship attorney.
grants
rd_grants_check
Screen whether a startup/SMB likely qualifies for the federal R&D tax credit (26 U.S.C. 41 4-part test), the payroll-tax offset (qualified small business), and SBIR/STTR + state grants, from its activities. VIABILITY DETECTION ONLY — not a filing service, never takes a percentage; hands off to a CPA / the program office.
life
life_event_scan
PREMIUM. The reversal mechanic: one life-event trigger (new-baby / bought-a-house / lost-a-job / moved-states / started-a-business) fans out across ALL relevant spine verticals (benefits, missed credits, student-loan relief, DPA) and returns every finding at once — each rule-cited with a free authority hand-off. Pay-per-call via x402 (USDC on Base).
missed
missed_credits_scan
Detect federal tax credits a household LIKELY qualifies for but commonly never claims — EITC (26 USC 32), Saver's Credit (25B), education AOTC/LLC (25A), Child & Dependent Care (21), and home energy (25C/25D) — each confidence-tiered with the exact IRS pub cited and the FREE IRS Free File / VITA hand-off. Detection & explanation only; never files a return.
qualify
qualify_check
Eligibility-navigator: given a household situation (income, size, filing status), return which federal/state benefits & credits the person LIKELY qualifies for but may be missing — each with a confidence tier (LIKELY/VERIFY/UNLIKELY), the exact governing rule cited inline, the verify-date, and the administering body to claim it FREE. Never a guarantee; never files for you.
realtor
realtor_copilot
B2B (RESPA-safe SaaS): given a buyer's 8 fields, return the down-payment-assistance & loan programs (HFA DPA, FHA, VA, USDA, MCC) the buyer likely PASSes, sequenced in apply-order, each program administered by the HFA/approved lender. Flat-fee tool; no per-referral kickback, no lender steering.
visa
visa_match
Detect which U.S. visa categories likely fit a person's situation (O-1 extraordinary ability, EB-2 NIW, H-1B, family-based, EB-5), each with the governing statute (INA / 8 CFR) cited and a confidence tier. INFORMATION ONLY — not legal advice; every finding hands off to a licensed immigration attorney. Never files a petition.

How MCP servers expose tools in the first place →
Is Grant Finder working right now?
We send a real MCP handshake every 15 minutes. Over the last 24 hours 91 of 91 checks got a reply (100.0%), average response time 103 ms. The bar chart above shows every period we have measured.
How do I connect Grant Finder?
Copy the ready config from this page. We generate it for Claude Code, Claude Desktop, Codex, Cursor and VS Code, each in the form that client actually reads. It is a remote server, so there is nothing to install — the client connects to the address.
Does Grant Finder need an API key?
No. Grant Finder completed a full MCP handshake with us as an anonymous client and listed its tools without asking for anything. All 12 of them are readable on this page. This is what we observed, not what the docs claim.
How fast is Grant Finder?
It answers our handshake in 103 ms on average, which is faster than 92% of all working MCP servers we measure. That puts it in the quick quarter of the ecosystem. The comparison comes from our own checks across the whole registry, every 15 minutes.
