## Documentation & README

# 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.

## Data coverage & freshness

- **1,300+ live opportunities** across federal, provincial, municipal, and private sources.
- Normalized schema: title, category, region, funding range, deadline, eligibility text, source URL.
- Continuously ingested from 60+ source providers; a daily audit agent re-checks live
  listings, archives dead/expired programs, and corrects drifted details.
- Updated weekly; stale items are auto-archived.

NetGrant is not affiliated with any government or funding body. Always confirm
eligibility and deadlines on the official program page before applying.
