What it can do

Tool names and descriptions exactly as the server reported them on Nov 11, 2026. The maker wrote them, not us; we show them as plain text.

  • complete_profile

    GrantIQ complete_profile: fills in the user's matching profile field-by-field via chat. Partial-update semantics — null/missing fields leave existing values untouched. Server filters beneficiary/mission tags to canonical taxonomies. After this returns saved=true, call find_opport

  • search

    GrantIQ search: find UK & EU grants matching a free-text query. Returns a ranked list of grant references (id, title, funder, deadline, amounts) the caller can pass to the `fetch` tool for full detail. Results are limited to currently-open, AI-enriched grants — closed, suspended

  • explain_opportunity

    GrantIQ explain_opportunity: plain-English unpack of a single grant. Returns a summary, what the grant funds, target applicant profile, hidden constraints (e.g. state aid, consortium requirements), application mechanics (stages, duration, key dates), structured eligibility essent

  • should_apply

    GrantIQ should_apply: opinionated apply / don't-apply decision for a specific grant. Returns a verdict (yes / borderline / no), confidence (0-1), specific blockers, an effort estimate with confidence band, competition-risk label (or 'unknown' when funder data is absent), and the

  • fetch

    GrantIQ fetch: return the full record for a single grant by id. The id must come from a prior `search` call. Returns 'not found' when the grant is unknown OR not currently open/visible — there is no leak between those cases.

  • find_opportunities

    GrantIQ find_opportunities: runs the user's profile through the AI matching engine to find the top grants. Uses the canonical StagedMatchingService. Requires a complete profile (Location, OrgType, etc.).

Common questions

Is GrantIQ safe?

It passed 4 of 4 applicable basic checks. We have not read the code. Before adding a key or token, see what access the server asks for and use a key with only the permissions you need.

What keys or codes does it need?

The registry does not list a required key, though some servers ask you to sign in on first use.

Does it run on my computer or in the cloud?

It runs in the maker’s cloud. Connect over the internet with nothing to install, but what you send passes through the maker’s servers.

Is it still maintained?

The GitHub repo last changed 4 months ago, and the latest version (1.0.1) reached the registry 5 months ago.

Which apps can use it?

Apps that support MCP, such as Claude Desktop, Claude Code, Cursor and VS Code. It connects by URL, so apps that accept remote MCP servers work too, such as ChatGPT on the web (full MCP on Business and above; Pro read-only).

What can I use instead?

GrantIQ MCP

Eligibility-first UK & EU grant discovery, inside ChatGPT and Claude.

GrantIQ is a hosted Model Context Protocol server that lets ChatGPT, Claude, and any MCP-capable assistant find the UK & EU grants your organisation is actually eligible for — checking eligibility *before* recommending, explaining why each grant fits, and citing the funder's own page on every answer.

This repository is the install/docs home for the GrantIQ MCP server. The server is hosted by GrantIQ at https://grantiq.co.uk/mcp — there's no package to run locally.

Install

Claude (Code / Desktop):

claude mcp add --transport http grantiq https://grantiq.co.uk/mcp

ChatGPT: Settings → Connectors → add an MCP server with URL https://grantiq.co.uk/mcp.

The first tool call opens an OAuth consent screen. Approve it, then — first time only — ask your assistant to *"complete my GrantIQ profile"* (organisation type, location, sectors, focus). Personalised matching needs a profile; without one, find_opportunities tells you exactly what to add.

Tools

ToolWhat it does
find_opportunitiesRuns your profile through the eligibility-first matching engine; returns top grants with a fit score, rationale, and eligibility verdict
should_applyOpinionated yes / borderline / no for a specific grant, with blockers, an effort estimate, and an honest competition_risk
explain_opportunityPlain-English unpack of one grant: what it funds, who it's for, hidden constraints, application mechanics, citations
searchFree-text grant discovery across 100+ UK & EU funding sources
fetchFull canonical record for one grant, with embedded evidence links
complete_profileSet up your matching profile through chat (organisation, sectors, focus, funding range)

Why GrantIQ

  • Eligibility before list. It checks what you're eligible for *before* recommending — no scrolling grants you can't apply for.
  • UK & EU in one place. 100+ funding sources (UKRI, Innovate UK, Horizon Europe, EIC, Wellcome, Arts Council, National Lottery, and 90+ more), with daily refresh.
  • Honest by design. Every answer cites the funder's own page, and competition_risk returns unknown rather than inventing a number when the funder doesn't publish one.

Built for UK & EU charities, researchers, SMEs, and grant consultants.
