You can't just send out cold emails hoping for the best. This MCP provides a specialized engine that evaluates the alignment between your startup profile and the profiles of major accelerator investors. It doesn't just give you a list; it calculates a match score and ranks introductions based on how well your business fits their specific investment thesis. You can use the MCP to identify potential partners using `find_investor_matches`. Beyond general fit, you need to vet the risk. The MCP lets you confirm if an investor has sufficient unallocated capital for your funding ask with `get_investor_capacity`.

It's a critical step that moves you past basic research and straight into actionable, vetted connections. ## Tools ### get_investor_capacity Checks if an investor has remaining capital availability to meet a startup's funding need ### check_portfolio_conflicts Determines if a specific investor has a direct conflict of interest with a startup ### find_investor_matches Identifies and ranks all investors that align with a specific startup's profile ## Prompt Examples **Prompt:** ``` Find me investors for a Fintech startup in the Seed stage located in Europe needing $2M. ``` **Response:** ``` I have found 3 matching investors.
