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.

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.


Add it to your client

Claude Desktop / Cursor / Cline / Continue — add to your MCP config (claude_desktop_config.json, .cursor/mcp.json, etc.):

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "netgrant": {
      "type": "http",
      "url": "https://mcp.netgrant.ca/mcp"
    }
  }
}

Claude Code (CLI):

claude mcp add --transport http netgrant https://mcp.netgrant.ca/mcp

Claude.ai (web): Settings → Connectors → Add custom connector → paste https://mcp.netgrant.ca/mcp.

No account, no key, no rate-limit signup. Restart your client and the tools appear.

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.
