Genuine Good Grants API

Account-free, pay-per-call U.S. federal grant discovery for AI agents, grant software, and small research teams. Genuine Good Grants turns current Grants.gov public records into structured search, official opportunity detail, transparent mission-fit scoring, sourced briefs, and deterministic shortlist checks.

No API key is required. Calls settle in USDC on Base mainnet using x402 v2.

Start here

  • Agent overview: https://genuinegood.online/grants/agents
  • Agent instructions: https://genuinegood.online/skill.md
  • Quickstart: https://genuinegood.online/grants/quickstart
  • OpenAPI 3.1: https://genuinegood.online/openapi.json
  • Remote MCP (Streamable HTTP): https://genuinegood.online/api/grants/mcp
  • MCP Registry descriptor: https://github.com/Froydinger/grantsignal-us/blob/main/server.json
  • x402 manifest: https://genuinegood.online/.well-known/x402
  • Free $5-result preview: https://genuinegood.online/api/grants/preflight-sample
  • Human overview: https://genuinegood.online/grants

Discovery and verification

  • AgentCash-compatible OpenAPI: https://genuinegood.online/openapi.json
  • Live 402 Index directory: https://402index.io/directory?q=genuinegood.online
  • x402scan listing request: https://github.com/Merit-Systems/x402scan/issues/1163
  • Public API source: https://github.com/Froydinger/grantsignal-us

The OpenAPI document includes machine-readable x402 pricing metadata, and the paid routes return the expected HTTP 402 challenge before payment. These links are provided for discovery and independent verification. Directory review and indexing status are controlled by the directory maintainers.

Choose the first call

If you already have one to five Grants.gov opportunity IDs, start with the free preview to inspect the output shape, then use the $5 preflight. If you are building a repeated research workflow, the non-renewing $15 pass covers 30 days or 1,000 calls, whichever comes first.

Pricing

Prices in this table mirror the current live catalog. The HTTP 402 response and its PAYMENT-REQUIRED header are authoritative for each request.

Inspect before paying

~~~bash curl -i -X POST https://genuinegood.online/v1/grants/search -H 'content-type: application/json' -d '{"keyword":"rural clean water","statuses":["posted","forecasted"],"rows":5}' ~~~

The unpaid request returns HTTP 402 with a PAYMENT-REQUIRED challenge. An x402-compatible client signs the quoted EIP-3009 authorization and retries the identical request with PAYMENT-SIGNATURE. A successful retry returns JSON plus PAYMENT-RESPONSE.

Use from an MCP client

The hosted Streamable HTTP server exposes the grants tools at:

~~~text https://genuinegood.online/api/grants/mcp ~~~

VS Code and GitHub Copilot users can add it with this configuration:

~~~json { "servers": { "genuine-good-grants": { "type": "http", "url": "https://genuinegood.online/api/grants/mcp" } } } ~~~

A ready-to-copy version is available at examples/mcp.json. The server can list its tools without an API key. Paid tool calls return an x402 challenge containing the current USDC price and Base settlement details.

JavaScript buyer

Install the x402 client packages and use examples/search.ts:

~~~bash npm install @x402/core @x402/evm @x402/fetch viem EVMPRIVATEKEY=0x... npx tsx examples/search.ts ~~~
