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` (distinct funders), `avg_grant_size_received`, and `funder_concentration_hhi`. CHOOSING THE RIGHT TOOL: - Want FUNDERS to apply to → use search_funders. - Want to research/benchmark RECIPIENT nonprofits (peers, "who received $X", landscape of a cause) → use search_nonprofits. - Found a well-funded peer and want their funders → note its `funder_count`, then use get_foundation_grants / search_funders to find who funds that work.
