What is the PitchBook MCP Server?

What you can do

Connect AI agents to the PitchBook Direct Data API for comprehensive private market intelligence:

  • Search companies across global private and public markets with industry and status filters
  • Get complete company profiles with founding dates, headquarters, employees, and industry classifications
  • Track financing history from Seed to Series D+ with deal sizes, investor syndicates, and valuations
  • Research deals including VC investments, M&A transactions, LBOs, and public offerings
  • Analyze investors — VC firms, PE firms, angels, family offices, and corporate venture arms
  • Explore investment funds with AUM, vintage years, stage preferences, and sector focus
  • Find professionals — founders, executives, board members, and key decision-makers
  • Identify limited partners — pension funds, endowments, sovereign wealth funds, and family offices
  • Get AI-powered VC exit predictions for portfolio companies with IPO and acquisition probability scores

How it works

  1. Connect your PitchBook account via API token from your Direct Data subscription
  2. Ask your AI agent to research companies, analyze deal flow, or map investor networks
  3. Natural language commands replace manual PitchBook platform searches
  4. Structured market data returned in formatted responses with pagination metadata

Who is this for?

Essential for venture capitalists, private equity professionals, investment bankers, corporate development teams, limited partners, fundraisers, management consultants, and financial journalists. Let AI agents perform company due diligence, track competitor fundraising, identify potential acquirers or investors, research LP backgrounds, map professional networks, and assess exit probabilities. Perfect for professionals who need to answer questions like 'What companies raised Series A in AI/ML last quarter?', 'Which PE firms are most active in healthcare buyouts?', or 'What is the predicted exit probability for this portfolio company?'

FAQ

Frequently asked questions

01

Is a PitchBook Direct Data API subscription required?

Yes. This integration requires an active PitchBook Direct Data API token.

02

How does Claude Desktop discover MCP tools?

When Claude Desktop starts, it reads the claude_desktop_config.json file and connects to each configured MCP server. It calls the tools/list endpoint to fetch the schema for every available tool, then surfaces them as clickable options in the chat interface via the 🔌 icon.

03

What happens if the MCP server is temporarily unavailable?

Claude Desktop handles disconnections gracefully. if the server is unreachable at startup, the tools simply won't appear. Once the server becomes available again, restarting Claude Desktop will re-establish the connection. There is no timeout penalty or error loop.

04

Can I connect multiple MCP servers simultaneously?

Yes. You can add as many servers as you need in the mcpServers section of the config file. Each server appears as a separate tool provider, and Claude can use tools from multiple servers in a single conversation turn.

05

Is there a limit on the number of tools per server?

Claude Desktop can handle hundreds of tools per server. However, for optimal LLM performance, Vinkius servers are designed to expose focused, well-documented tool sets rather than overwhelming the model with too many options.

06

Does Claude Desktop support Streamable HTTP transport?

Yes. Claude Desktop supports both SSE (Server-Sent Events) and the newer Streamable HTTP transport that Vinkius uses. Simply provide the server URL. Claude auto-negotiates the transport protocol.

07

Server not appearing after restart

Ensure the JSON is valid (no trailing commas). Check the file path: ~/Library/Application Support/Claude/claude_desktop_config.json (macOS) or %APPDATA%\\Claude\\ (Windows).

08

Authentication error

Verify your Vinkius token is correct. Go to cloud.vinkius.com to regenerate it if needed.

09

Tools not showing in chat

Click the 🔌 icon at the bottom of the chat input. If it shows 0 tools, the server may still be connecting. wait a few seconds.
