Specter is now native to Claude, ChatGPT, Cursor, Gemini, and any AI workspace your team runs on

Our most-requested feature of the year just shipped. Specter MCP wires our 6M+ companies, 470M+ people, 120K+ investors and proprietary signal layers directly into your AI workspace. Generate founder briefings, break down inbound pitches and run portfolio recruitment without leaving the conversation.

Every fund will have an AI assistant within 18 months. The question becomes what data it can reach. We built this so the answer is Specter.

Built for how you actually work 🎯

Most MCP servers ship a flat list of API endpoints and leave you to wire them together. We designed Specter MCP around the workflows investors actually run. Each tool completes a real job in one call.

Fourteen tools cover the full investment lifecycle. Ask your AI for a full company snapshot before a meeting and a single call returns headcount trends, funding history, key people, and active signals. Pull new results from your saved searches to stay on top of launches, investor interest, and talent moves without opening a tab.

Generate meeting briefings 📋

Walking into an intro cold wastes everyone’s time. With Specter connected, your AI builds a full company briefing on demand: recent funding rounds, department breakdowns, web traffic trends, key people, and active signals. It pulls your calendar, inbox, and other connected tools in alongside.

Investors walk into every meeting already armed with the context that used to take an analyst 30 minutes to compile by hand.

Recruit for portfolio companies without the research tax 🤝

With Specter in your AI workspace, the model pulls real career history, education and role context for any candidate before writing a single line.

Ask it to draft outreach for a VP Engineering hire at a portfolio company and it layers in the candidate’s actual background, previous companies, and technical depth. Every message reads like you did the homework.

Analyze inbound pitches 📊

When a pitch hits your inbox, you want founder experience and company traction in front of you before booking the call. Specter MCP pulls founder profiles, funding history, headcount trend and investor interest signals straight into the analysis.

Ask your AI to break down the deck alongside Specter data and you get a structured view of who’s building, how fast they’re growing and who else is already paying attention.

Founder outreach without leaving your chat 📨

Most outbound runs across two tools: research in one, draft in another. Specter MCP collapses both into a single conversation.

Your AI pulls the company profile, identifies the founder, surfaces their email and drafts the outreach in the same thread. Go from “tell me about this company” to a personalized email ready to send. No tab-switching, no copy-paste, no re-typing what you already learned.

The context you just researched becomes the message.

Review new saved search results 🔔

Your saved searches already capture the signals that matter to your thesis. With the MCP connected, your AI pulls fresh results from those searches on a weekly routine, surfacing new launches, startups gaining investor interest and key people moves directly in your workspace.

Set it up once and your AI delivers a personalized rundown of what’s new since you last looked. New stealth AI founders. A portfolio competitor raising quietly. A senior hire at a company you’re tracking. The signals come to you, filtered by the searches you already built.

Find similar companies 🔎

Mapping the competition usually means hours across multiple tabs. With Specter MCP, ask your AI to surface competitors and adjacent providers for any company and it returns a structured comparison with funding, headcount, web traction and stage data.

Spotted a round in a space you’re watching and want to find who else is building there? Compare twenty similar companies in a single prompt, side by side, grounded in real data.

Connect in minutes 🔌

Setup takes less than five minutes. Open Specter, head to Settings > MCP, and follow the guide to wire your account into Claude, ChatGPT, Gemini, Cursor, or whichever AI workspace your team runs on.
