# Kindora Funder Discovery — AI Connector Kindora Funder Discovery publishes 8 MCP tools to Claude. Marketplace availability, tool surface, verification tier, and what Node8 measured against the live endpoint. Source: https://node8.ai/ai-connectors/nonprofit/kindora-funder-discovery/ --- [AI Connectors](https://node8.ai/ai-connectors/) · [Nonprofit](https://node8.ai/ai-connectors/nonprofit/) # Kindora Funder Discovery Funder research across 168,000+ foundations and their giving patterns Listed in Claude · 8 published tools · Verified partner [Claude connector docs](https://kindora.co/mcp) [kindora.co](https://www.kindora.co) Overview ## What Kindora Funder Discovery does Kindora searches foundations by what they have actually funded. The listing puts coverage at over 168,000 foundations with grant records behind them, which supports the question a fundraiser really asks: not who gives money, but who gives money to organisations like this one. Two tools answer that directly by working backwards from examples, finding the funders of peer organisations and the funders of a named nonprofit. Around them sit foundation profiles, IRS 990 summaries, grant histories, NTEE code lookups and open grant search. Job listings at funders are searchable too. This connector carries the partner tier. ### Who it is for Nonprofit leaders identifying funders that already support comparable causes. ### Tool surface Thirteen tools answered against eight claimed. Beyond search\_funders and get\_funder\_profile sit get\_990\_summary, get\_foundation\_grants and get\_funder\_stats, plus two that work from example: find\_funders\_for\_peers and find\_funders\_of\_nonprofit. Availability ## Where Kindora Funder Discovery is listed Kindora Funder Discovery is listed in the Claude connectors directory only. Kindora has no app under the same domain in the ChatGPT directory; 392 of the 3,150 products here are on both marketplaces, and this is not one of them. The MCP server behind a Claude connector is usually the same server a ChatGPT app would need, so the absence is a distribution decision rather than a technical one. Claude listing ## In the Claude connectors directory Kindora Funder Discovery publishes 8 tools to Claude. That is a mid-sized surface: 37.7% of the 1,253 Claude-listed connectors expose fewer. The median Claude-listed connector filed under Nonprofit publishes 5.5, so this one runs 2.5 tools above its bucket's median and ranks 2nd of 8 by tool count. It falls in the 7-10 tools band, which holds 14.6% of the Claude directory. ### Measured against the live endpoint A direct call to the endpoint returned 13 tools, 5 more than the 8 the listing publishes. Probed 2026-08-07. #### Tools the server actually returns - `health_check` - `list_tools` - `search_funders` - `get_funder_profile` - `get_990_summary` - `get_foundation_grants` - `get_ntee_codes` - `search_open_grants` - `search_funder_jobs` - `search_nonprofits` - `find_funders_for_peers` - `find_funders_of_nonprofit` - `get_funder_stats` Kindora Funder Discovery publishes a remote MCP endpoint. Claude connects to it over HTTP; there is nothing to install locally. Every connector in the Claude directory is remote, all 1,253 of them, so transport is not a differentiator there. Publisher Kindora Verification Verified partner (37.8% of the Claude directory) Filed under Nonprofit Endpoint `https://kindora-mcp.azurewebsites.net/mcp/` Documentation [Publisher setup docs](https://kindora.co/mcp) Published tools 8 · 7-10 tools band Depth rank in Nonprofit 2 of 8 Snapshot August 2026 Kindora Funder Discovery carries partner verification in the Claude directory, which 474 of 1,253 listings do (37.8%). That is a review step past self-publishing, not an Anthropic-built server.
