Search Grantmakers

Look up grantmaking organizations by name, topic, or location. This tool searches 174K+ grantmaking organizations from IRS data using organization names plus grant-purpose/topic signals. Use it when you know the funder's name, want aligned funders for a cause area, or want to browse by location/size/NTEE code. Multi-word searches are ranked by relevance; simple browse/name fallback results are ordered by total assets. IMPORTANT: Use search_open_grants when the user needs active grant programs

Get Funder Profile

Get detailed profile information for a specific funder. Polymorphic identifier — pass ``ein`` for US 990 foundations OR ``funder_id`` (bare UUID / ``n9f:<uuid>``) for non-990 funders such as European, UK 360Giving, and Canadian CRA T3010 funders. ``search_funders`` returns both fields on every hit, so the caller can hand either one back here. At least one identifier must be supplied. Use this after searching for funders to get detailed information about a specific one.

Get IRS 990 Summary

Get IRS 990 filing summary and financial trends for a foundation. This tool retrieves IRS 990 filing data (Form 990 or 990-PF) for a foundation, showing financial information over time. It calculates year-over-year trends for assets, grants, and revenue.

Get Foundation Grants

View grants made by a funder across IRS, web-extracted, and registry records. Merges five stores. **(1) IRS 990-PF filings** — structured grant lines from the ~143K US private foundations that file 990s, keyed by EIN. **(2) Web-extracted grant records** — our enrichment pipeline crawls funder websites and an LLM extracts their grant lists. This second store covers ~15K additional US foundations AND ~17K non-990 funders (European foundations, US community foundations, DAFs, corporate giving prog

Browse NTEE Codes

Browse NTEE (National Taxonomy of Exempt Entities) classification codes. NTEE codes are used to classify nonprofit organizations by their primary purpose. This tool helps you find the right NTEE code for searching or understanding a foundation's focus area.

Search Open Grants

Search open grant opportunities from Kindora's active foundation-program corpus plus federal and state government grants. FOR-PROFIT APPLICANTS: pass for_profit_applicant=true to search capital a for-profit can take (PRIs, loans, revenue-based financing, patient equity) from CDFIs, impact investors, and PRI-active foundations. The default pool is 501(c)(3)-shaped and will NOT contain those programs. Searches both private foundation grant programs (from IRS data and funder websites) and governm

Search Funder Jobs

Search OPEN PHILANTHROPY JOBS at grantmaking foundations. Surfaces roles involved in giving away money, running philanthropic programs, or executive leadership of philanthropic work. Backed by a weekly scrape of ~50K funder careers pages + GPT-5.4-mini classification against an 8-category taxonomy. Categories (use the `category` param to filter): - grantmaking: Program officers, grants managers, RFP reviewers - program_leadership: VP Programs, Chief Program Officer, Program Director (c

Search Nonprofits (Grantee Benchmarking)

Search the ~2M-org universe of US nonprofits (IRS Business Master File) — the RECIPIENT / grantee side, distinct from search_funders (the grantmaker side). Use this to benchmark peer organizations, research a cause's landscape, or find well-funded peers and then look up WHO funds them. Each result carries 990 financials (revenue, program-expense ratio, employees, governance score) and recipient-side funding signals: `total_grants_received` (tracked foundation $ received), `funder_count` (distin

Find Funders for Peer Orgs

Find grantmakers that have ACTUALLY funded organizations LIKE the caller's, using the real 7.5M-edge who-funds-whom grant graph (IRS 990-PF, 2022-2026). This is the strongest free-tier prospecting move: collaborative-filtering peer prospecting, distinct from search_funders (name/topic lookup) and search_open_grants (active RFPs). HOW IT WORKS: for each peer organization, it looks up every foundation that granted to that peer, then merges funders across peers. A funder that gave to several of yo

Find Funders of a Nonprofit

Find the foundations that have ACTUALLY granted to ONE specific nonprofit — the reverse of get_foundation_grants, over the real 7.5M-edge who-funds-whom grant graph (IRS 990-PF, 2022-2026). Use this when the question is about a SINGLE org: "who funds Greater Chicago Food Depository?", "which foundations support this nonprofit?", or to prospect from one well-funded peer. To aggregate the same signal across SEVERAL peer orgs, use find_funders_for_peers instead. Pass recipient_ein when known (mos

Get Funder Statistics

Get comprehensive giving statistics for a funder. This tool calculates aggregate statistics about a funder's grantmaking from IRS 990-PF data, web-extracted grant records, 360Giving rows, CRA T3010 rows, and ACRI rows. It provides lifetime totals, focus areas, geographic distribution, and year-over-year trends. Pass ``ein`` for US 990 foundations, or ``funder_id`` (bare UUID / ``n9f:<uuid>``) for non-990 funders.
