Does this MCP work with Claude or Cursor?

Yes. This MCP is built on the Model Context Protocol (MCP) standard. You connect your preferred AI client, whether it's Claude, Cursor, Windsurf, or VS Code, and you get access to the entire catalog, including this funding capability.

What kind of data does it need?

The MCP needs specific inputs about your company, such as its sector, location, and current stage. It uses this data to filter the master list of grants and calculate the economics.

Is this capability just a list of grants?

No. It's a decision support capability. It doesn't just list grants; it tells you which ones are actually applicable to your company and helps you rank them by expected value.

Can I calculate the time investment?

Yes. The calculate_grant_economics capability lets you quantify the financial value alongside the temporal value, so you know the true cost per hour of effort.

How do I use the prioritization capability?

You provide the MCP with a set of grants and a specific resource constraint, like '40 hours of capacity.' It then generates a ranked list, showing you the best use of that time.

How does the capability determine grant eligibility?

The get_eligible_grants capability compares a company's profile (industry, location, etc.) against the specific requirements defined for each available grant.

What is 'Expected Value' in this context?

Expected Value is the calculated financial return of a grant, found by multiplying the total grant amount by the probability of success.

How are grants prioritized?

Grants are ranked primarily by their Expected Value. If two grants have the same value, the one requiring less time investment is prioritized.

Works with modern AI clients that support MCP, including ChatGPT, Claude, Cursor, and more.

Your AI does the work. We keep it safe and sound.

No other AI tool gives you this. Your workflow runs in the client you already love, your account stays protected, and you decide what the agent can and cannot do. It is the whole reason to make the switch.

Each Connector lives inside our infrastructure, the same place where your workflow runs. The three things below are already part of it, working quietly in the background so you never have to think about them. Nothing to add, nothing to set up, nothing to worry about.

V8 Isolate01

Each Connector runs inside its own sealed environment.

Each Connector runs inside its own sealed V8 runtime — no access to your files, your system, or other servers. A Connector never sees past its own request.

Kill Switch02

One switch stops every agent. Instantly.

One action deactivates every Connector, revokes every token, and ends every session at once. AI Governance keeps the record.

FinOps per User03

Spending limits that pause instead of surprise.

Every user keeps their own connections and credentials, isolated from everyone else. Anything that would cross your spending limit is held for your approval, not billed.

Three controls, built into the layer your AI connects through.

Curated set · 3 capabilities

Real work

What teams actually run

Vetting a new cohort

You feed the MCP the profiles of all your startups and ask it to identify all potential grants they are eligible for.

Comparing funding options

You run the economics capability on three different grants to see which one offers the best return for the least amount of work.

Prioritizing limited resources

Your team has 40 hours this month. You use the prioritization capability to ensure those hours are spent on the grants with the highest expected value.

Checking niche eligibility

You input a highly specific company profile, like a 'Green Tech company in Berlin,' to get a tailored list of applicable grants.

Automate a task

Put Accelerator Grant Funding to work on one thing.

Step-by-step automations your AI runs through this Connector: the workflow, the prompts to start with, and the exact capabilities behind each move.

One connector, every AI

Accelerator Grant Funding works with the most popular AI clients.

These are the most popular clients, each with a step-by-step guide: one link, set up once, with governance and visibility built in. And because everything runs on the MCP standard, the same connection also works in any other compatible client — nothing to rebuild.

Building your own app? The connector is yours to use.

You don't need a client to put Accelerator Grant Funding to work: the same hosted connection plugs into your own applications and agent code, with the same governance on every request. Build with it, chat with it — one connection for both.
