# How to Assess Applicant Eligibility with Copilot

Check whether your organization qualifies for a specific grant before investing in the application. Use `opportunity_details` to pull the full requirements and `match_applicant_profile` to score your fit. Copilot is ideal when you want structured eligibility scores you can store in a tracker or CRM.

## Setup

{"mcpServers":{"toolrouter":{"command":"npx","args":["-y","toolrouter-mcp"]}}}

## Steps

1. Connect ToolRouter in Copilot: {"mcpServers":{"toolrouter":{"command":"npx","args":["-y","toolrouter-mcp"]}}}
2. Specify the grant opportunity and your organization profile with all relevant details.
3. Use `grants-finder` with `opportunity_details` to pull the full eligibility criteria and requirements.
4. Run `match_applicant_profile` to generate a structured eligibility assessment.
5. Ask Copilot to format the results as a checklist or scored table you can add to your grants pipeline.

## Example Prompt

```
Use grants-finder to pull the full details for the NIHR Applied Research Collaboration funding call. Then match my profile as a UK NHS trust with a small research team. Return a structured JSON eligibility checklist with pass/fail for each criterion and an overall fit score.
```

## Tips

- Be thorough with your profile description so the match considers all relevant eligibility factors.
- Ask Copilot to produce both a summary score and a detailed criterion-by-criterion breakdown.
