How to Use the Harmonic MCP in Vercel AI SDK
Stream real-time startup intelligence and investor data directly into your Next.js UI using Vercel AI SDK and the Harmonic MCP Server.
Works with every AI agent you already use
…and any MCP-compatible client
Connect Harmonic MCP to Vercel AI SDK
Create your Vinkius account to connect Harmonic to Vercel AI SDK and route execution through our secure gateway. The platform manages server hosting, runtime updates, and security layers. Configuration requires no manual server provisioning.
Stream live startup searches to your UI
The `search_startups` tool lets your Vercel AI SDK agent query thousands of early-stage companies based on headcount, industry, and location. Instead of making your users stare at a blank loading screen, this MCP Server feeds raw search results directly into your frontend components as they arrive. You build a cleaner interface because the Vercel AI SDK streams the exact Harmonic company profiles you need without lagging. It runs inside Edge Functions, pulling fresh data on demand so your users get instant updates on high-growth targets.
Real-time enrichment with Vercel AI SDK
The `enrich_company` tool fetches deep firmographics, funding history, and social signals for any domain name your user types in. When combined with the Vercel AI SDK MCP integration, the resulting data structures feed straight into your React state, rendering detailed company profiles dynamically. You skip the boilerplate API glue code entirely. Your Vercel AI SDK app instantly displays employee growth trends via `get_company_stats` and lists recent press coverage with `list_company_news` while the LLM explains the competitive context in a parallel stream.
Instant investor portfolio mapping
The `get_investor_portfolio` tool extracts the full list of backed startups for any VC firm or angel investor. This capability allows your Vercel AI SDK client to map out competitive environments and reveal funding relationships on the fly. Your interface renders these investment networks step-by-step. By querying `list_funding_rounds` alongside the portfolio data, your Vercel AI SDK application builds an interactive, live-updating timeline of venture capital activity directly in the browser.
