Federal Grants — find funding you are actually eligible for tools (3)
write = sends, deletes, buys or postscheck_grant_eligibilityFreeGiven a Grants.gov opportunity ID and an organization type, return a definitive eligibility verdict with the reason. ELIGIBLE / INELIGIBLE / NEEDS_REVIEW. Never guesses: an opportunity that publishes no applicant types, or only 'Others (see text)', returns NEEDS_REVIEW rather than a false green light.
find_federal_grantsFreeFind open U.S. federal grant opportunities an organization is ACTUALLY eligible to apply for. Filters by the machine-readable applicant-type code Grants.gov publishes on every opportunity, so ineligible opportunities are excluded rather than ranked low. Returns deadlines, award ceilings, cost-sharing requirements, and what prior winners of the same program actually received. Free, no key, live federal data.
grant_program_historyFreeWhat a federal grant program has actually awarded before, by CFDA/assistance-listing number: median award, largest award, and recent recipients from USAspending.gov. Use it to sanity-check whether a request is realistic — a $150k ask against a program with a $40M median means competing with major institutions.

What makes this different from a Grants.gov scraper
A scraper returns rows. This returns judgment, and shows its work.
The eligibility gate is the whole point
Grants.gov publishes machine-readable applicant-type codes on every opportunity. A 501(c)(3) is code 12. A small business is 23. A federally recognized tribal government is 07.
This actor filters on those codes server-side, so you never even download the grants your organization is legally barred from winning. In live testing, a small business and a tribal government scanning the same database got result sets with zero overlap. That is the difference between a list and a shortlist.
It never guesses. If an opportunity publishes no applicant types, or only says "Others — see text", you get NEEDS_REVIEW, not a false green light. Absence of evidence is never reported as eligibility.
Prior-award intelligence nobody else gives you
For each opportunity's CFDA program number, the actor pulls real reported federal awards from USAspending.gov and tells you the median award, the largest, and who received them.
That single number reframes an opportunity. A $250,000 request against a program whose median prior award is $47.7M is not a good fit — it means you would be competing against major research institutions. The scanner says so, in those words, instead of quietly scoring it as a match.
