Key Capabilities
Run deadline monitoring teams
Instead of just looking at dates, you need a team to track them. You can use `calculate_deadline_calendar` and assign it to a specialized agent role. This tool sorts all global deadlines by urgency, giving the crew actionable timelines. The collaborative nature of CrewAI means one agent researches multiple scholarships while another analyzes the resulting calendar data for gaps.
Generate advisory document plans
A dedicated 'Adviser Agent' can run `generate_document_checklist` to compile requirements. This ensures that mandatory global documents are always listed first, regardless of how complex the scholarship is (FUVEST, Erasmus+). The shared memory in CrewAI allows the initial search results to inform the checklist generation—the process is much smarter than running a single script.
Research and retrieve opportunity context
The 'Researcher Agent' calls `get_scholarship_opportunity` to pull structured details for programs like SISU or DAAD. This provides the necessary foundation for any analysis. By passing these retrieved opportunities into the workflow, your crew can analyze not just the deadline, but also the specific context required for application success.
