Frequently asked questions
How do I find my DeckMatch API Key?
Log in to your DeckMatch or AlphaLens dashboard and navigate to the Settings or API section to generate your secret key.
What deck formats are supported for analysis?
You can provide URLs for PDF and PPTX files, as well as direct view links from platforms like DocSend.
How does semantic startup search work?
The search_startups_semantically tool uses the AlphaLens engine to match your natural language query against a massive database of startups and their strategic metadata.
How does the OpenAI Agents SDK connect to MCP?
Use MCPServerSse(url=...) to create a server connection. The SDK auto-discovers all tools and makes them available to your agent with full type information.
Can I use multiple MCP servers in one agent?
Yes. Pass a list of MCPServerSse instances to the agent constructor. The agent can use tools from all connected servers within a single run.
Does the SDK support streaming responses?
Yes. The SDK supports SSE and Streamable HTTP transports, both of which work natively with Vinkius.
