Netgrant MCP Server

NetGrant — Canadian funding, inside your AI

NetGrant is a free, public MCP server (and web app) for searching 1,300+ live Canadian funding opportunities — grants, tax credits, wage subsidies, accelerators, pitch competitions, loans, and events. Ask Claude, Cursor, or any MCP client to find, compare, and check eligibility for Canadian funding without leaving the conversation.

• MCP endpoint: https://mcp.netgrant.ca/mcp (Streamable HTTP, no auth, no API key)
• Web app: https://app.netgrant.ca (same data, search UI, no login)
• Site: https://netgrant.ca

This repository is documentation only. NetGrant is a hosted, closed-source public service — there is no source code here and none to self-host. Point your MCP client at the endpoint above and you're done.

Weekly email digest

Beyond live search, NetGrant offers a free opt-in weekly email digest: tell the assistant the niche you're tracking (keywords + province), give your email, and you'll get 8–10 matching Canadian grants each week — newest first, falling back to the strongest current matches. Double opt-in, one-click unsubscribe.
