Documentation

Fundable MCP Server

Query Fundable's proprietary startup and venture-capital dataset through the hosted MCP server. Connect with an active Fundable account that has a primary email. No paid subscription is required, and new signups receive 250 free one-time signup credits.

This is a remote, hosted MCP server. There's nothing to install or run locally; you connect to the hosted endpoint and authenticate with your Fundable account.

  • Endpoint: https://mcp.tryfundable.ai/
  • Transport: Streamable HTTP (the explicit /mcp path remains available for compatibility)
  • MCP auth: OAuth 2.1 with your Fundable account. The account must be active and have a primary email. No paid subscription is required.
  • API-key auth: Provisioned API keys connect at https://mcp.tryfundable.ai/api-mcp with Authorization: Bearer <key>. API-key sessions receive dataset and preview tools. Exports and contact unlocks require Clerk OAuth.

This repo contains documentation and the MCP manifest only. The server source is proprietary.

Dataset coverage

The dataset covers 101,000 startups, 375,000 startup employees, 67,000 investment firms, 36,000 angels, and 49,000 lead partners. Funding records link to source articles, and data refreshes multiple times daily. Explore Fundable data.

Credit-consuming actions

  • CSV exports: One credit per row actually exported. The caller must set maxCredits from a ceiling the user approved; if the result exceeds it, the export is rejected without a charge. The limit is 1,000 rows. An identical SQL retry within 15 minutes recovers the same export without a second charge.
  • Single email or phone unlock: A newly unlocked contact costs five credits; a repeat of that same contact type for the same account costs zero. Email and phone are separate unlocks, so unlocking both for one person can cost ten credits. Ask for approval before a paid unlock.
  • Batch email or phone unlock: Each call covers 1–20 named people and requires approval of the exact people and a maxCredits ceiling. Each new contact costs five credits, up to the approved ceiling; repeats, misses, unavailable results, duplicates, and invalid identifiers cost zero. Do not break a batch into single unlocks to bypass its ceiling.

Before confirming any of these actions, show the user what will be exported or whose contact details will be unlocked, the unit cost, and the maximum credits that can be charged. Report the actual credits used afterward.

Purchase more credits at $0.06 each.

Pro is $100/month with 2,000 monthly credits, the web app, deal alerts, and integrations. That is $0.05 per included credit; additional purchased credits cost $0.06 each.
