Fundable MCP: Private-Market Research in Your AI Assistant

Fundable MCP lets an AI assistant research private companies, funding rounds, investors, founders, and verified contact information using Fundable’s private-market dataset. Describe the outcome you want in plain language; the assistant can explore the dataset, run read-only queries, and—with your approval—export results or unlock emails.

Source companies

Turn an investment thesis or ideal customer profile into a qualified company list.

Research markets

Analyze funding activity, competitive landscapes, investors, and syndicates.

What you can do

Venture and growth-equity sourcing

Turn an investment thesis into a targeted sourcing pipeline using sector, geography, stage, funding, investor, and company-maturity signals.

Example prompt

Find private companies that match this investment thesis: [sector or business model],
[target geography], [funding stage or company maturity], and [other investment
criteria]. Explain why each company fits, summarize its funding history, identify its
founders, and retrieve available contact information.

GTM lead generation and sales prospecting

Build prospect lists for B2B products and services using funding events, company stage, location, industry, and organizational information as buying signals.

Example prompt

We sell [product or service] to [ideal customer profile]. Find companies at [target
stage or maturity] in [target region] that show relevant buying signals. Identify the
founders or likely decision-makers, retrieve available contact information, and draft
personalized outbound messages.

Investor discovery for founders

Identify firms, angels, and partner-level professionals using sector, stage, geography, round size, and evidence from previous investments.

Example prompt

Using this company description, website, or fundraising deck, find angel investors,
venture firms, and relevant investment partners that could be a fit for our next
round. Explain why each investor matches, show relevant prior investments, and
retrieve available contact information.

Venture and private-market landscape research

Compare funding activity across sectors, stages, geographies, and time periods to identify active companies, investors, emerging categories, and shifts in momentum.

Example prompt

Analyze funding activity in [sector] across [stages], [locations], and [time period].
Show changes in deal volume and capital invested, identify active companies and
investors, and summarize the most important market trends.

Co-investor and syndicate research

Map disclosed investors, recurring co-investment relationships, partner-level professionals, and other deals where relevant investors participated together.

Example prompt

Find the disclosed investors and co-investors associated with [company, investor,
sector, or group of deals]. Identify recurring investment relationships, relevant
partners at each firm, and other deals where these investors participated together.

Market mapping and competitive landscapes

Organize private companies by maturity, funding, geography, business model, customer segment, and specialization to expose crowded categories and potential market gaps.

Example prompt

Map the [market or industry] landscape. Find relevant private companies funded during
[time period] and organize them by stage, funding, geography, customer focus,
business model, and domain specialization. Identify mature platforms, emerging
specialists, crowded segments, and potential market gaps.

Previews, exports, and approval

Fundable separates research from paid retrieval:

Analytical previews are free and return at most 15 rows at a time.
Preview queries are read-only and cannot modify the dataset.
A CSV export happens only after you explicitly request a file or download and approve a maximum credit amount.
Exports support up to 1,000 rows, 25 columns, 4,096 bytes per cell, and 10 MB per file. A result above your approved ceiling or a file limit is rejected without a charge.
Retrying identical export SQL within 15 minutes recovers the same export without a second charge.
Email unlocks require explicit approval. Missing emails, invalid identifiers, duplicates, and emails previously unlocked by the same account use 0 credits.

Begin broad research with a free preview. Ask for a CSV only after the filters and columns look right.

A reliable workflow

Ask the assistant to understand the Fundable dataset and your research goal.
Refine names, sectors, locations, stages, and time periods with a small preview.
Review the matches and adjust your criteria.
Ask for a CSV or verified contact information only when you want a paid action.
Confirm the scope and maximum credit amount before the assistant proceeds.

Troubleshooting

The connection says I do not have access

Confirm that you signed in with the Fundable account attached to an active Pro+ or Enterprise plan. You can manage your plan from Fundable billing.

A query returns too few results

Ask the assistant to inspect the dataset schema, validate exact filter values, and run a small diagnostic query. Avoid guessing internal identifiers or category names.

The assistant will not export or unlock an email

Paid actions require an explicit request and a bounded credit approval. State that you want the file or email, identify the intended scope, and approve the maximum number of credits. For help connecting Fundable MCP, contact jacob@tryfundable.ai.
