# How to Compare Grant Programs with ChatGPT

Search multiple grant programs and pull full details for a direct comparison. Use `search_opportunities` to find candidates and `opportunity_details` to get the specifics. ChatGPT is a good fit when you need the comparison delivered as a polished table or briefing document.

## Setup

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

## Steps

1. Connect ToolRouter in ChatGPT: {"mcpServers":{"toolrouter":{"command":"npx","args":["-y","toolrouter-mcp"]}}}
2. Describe the type of funding you are looking for: sector, geography, applicant type, and approximate budget.
3. Use `grants-finder` with `search_opportunities` to find relevant programs.
4. Run `opportunity_details` on the top candidates to get complete program information.
5. Ask ChatGPT to create a comparison table with eligibility, funding, deadlines, and a recommendation.

## Example Prompt

```
Use grants-finder to search for climate adaptation funding for a US-based research institute. Pull the full details for the top 4 programs and create a comparison table. Include eligibility, funding range, deadline, and your recommendation for each.
```

## Tips

- Pull opportunity details for at least 3 programs so the comparison is meaningful.
- Ask ChatGPT to produce a summary table first, then expand on any program that needs deeper analysis.
