# Accelerator Portfolio Construction MCP for AI Agents AI Agent Connect

> Accelerator Portfolio Construction MCP models the economic outcomes of venture accelerator cohorts. It uses power law distributions to forecast total return multiples, expected value, and necessary follow-on capital reserves based on breakout success rates and graduation velocity.

## Description

Managing a venture accelerator means living and dying by the power law. You aren't just looking for steady growth; you're looking for that one breakout success that carries the entire cohort. This MCP gives your AI agent the mathematical engine to model those exact outcomes. Instead of guessing how much capital you'll need to support winners, you can run simulations that account for failure rates, small exits, and the rare outliers that define the industry. 

By connecting this to your preferred AI client through the Vinkius catalog, you turn a chat interface into a sophisticated financial modeling workstation. You can test how a slight shift in your breakout rate changes your total return multiple or determine exactly how much reserve capital you need to set aside to support companies as they graduate. It moves you away from static spreadsheets and into dynamic, scenario-based planning where you can stress-test your fund's performance against different risk profiles.

## Tools

### simulate_portfolio_outcomes
Runs a simulation of cohort economic outcomes using power law math. It helps you see the likely total return multiples.

### calculate_reserve_requirements
Calculates the follow-on capital you need to keep in reserve. This ensures you can support breakout companies after graduation.

### compare_scenarios
Compares a base model against a modified one. Use this to see how changing failure or breakout rates shifts your returns.

## Prompt Examples

**Prompt:** 
```
What's the expected return for a 25-company cohort with a 40% failure rate and a 6% breakout rate?
```

**Response:** 
```
Based on a power law distribution for a 25-company cohort, here is the projected economic outcome:

| Metric | Projection |
| :--- | :--- |
| **Expected Total Return Multiple** | **1.62x** |
| **Primary Driver** | 6% Breakout Success |
| **Risk Profile** | Moderate-High |

The return is heavily weighted toward the breakout successes, which offset the 40% failure rate.
```

**Prompt:** 
```
How much reserve capital do I need for 30 companies if the breakout rate is 10% and graduation velocity is 0.5?
```

**Response:** 
```
To support your expected breakout companies, you should set aside the following:

* **Required Reserve Capital:** $1,850,000
* **Basis:** Calculated based on a 10% breakout rate across 30 companies with a 0.5 graduation velocity.

This amount ensures you have the necessary follow-on capacity to support high-growth companies as they exit the program.
```

**Prompt:** 
```
How does increasing the breakout rate from 5% to 7% change my total return?
```

**Response:** 
```
Increasing the breakout rate by 2% has a significant impact on your cohort's performance:

* **Base Scenario (5%):** 1.45x multiple
* **New Scenario (7%):** 1.68x multiple
* **Delta:** **+0.23x**

This shift demonstrates how sensitive your total return is to even small improvements in breakout success.

## Capabilities

### Forecast cohort returns
Predict total return multiples and expected value using power law distributions.

### Plan follow-on capital
Determine the specific amount of reserve capital needed to support breakout companies.

### Stress-test risk profiles
Compare different economic scenarios to see how changes in failure or success rates impact performance.

## Use Cases

### Planning for the next cohort
A director uses simulate_portfolio_outcomes to estimate if a 20-company cohort will meet their fund's target return multiple.

### Setting reserve capital levels
A fund manager uses calculate_reserve_requirements to figure out how much cash to hold back for high-growth startups.

### Sensitivity analysis for LPs
An investment professional uses compare_scenarios to show how a 2% increase in breakout rates changes the fund's outlook.

### Risk profiling new programs
An analyst uses simulate_portfolio_outcomes to model the impact of a higher failure rate on the total expected value.

## Benefits

- Predict total return multiples by using simulate_portfolio_outcomes to model power law distributions.
- Avoid capital shortfalls by using calculate_reserve_requirements to plan for breakout company support.
- Evaluate risk shifts instantly by using compare_scenarios to test different success and failure rates.
- Move from static spreadsheets to dynamic simulations that reflect real venture economics.
- Get precise expected value projections based on specific cohort graduation velocities.
