How we research fundsConnect your agentDescribe your company to your agent. It searches 950+ tracked funds and returns the ones that fit your stage and sector. A fund that just closed has fresh capital to deploy. We cover those closings as our own research, so the list reflects who raised, when.
Find funds with your agent →Raising Fund I or II? LP Radar tracks how LPs behave toward emerging managers. Filter to the ones that have backed a first or second fund before you send one email.
Open LP Radar →Offer Fund Momentum to your cohort or portfolio as a perk. Founders get fund search inside the agent they already use. Fund I managers get LP Radar.
See the partner offer →From question to shortlist inside your agent.
Add the Fund Momentum MCP server to Claude or ChatGPT. One URL. No key needed to start.
Tell it your stage and geography in plain words. It searches the tracked funds and pulls each profile.
Each fund comes with its thesis and deployment signals. Fields we could not confirm are marked unverified.
Only closes we reported ourselves. The date is the day we reported it, not the day the fund signed.

Learn moreAsk your agent. It queries the live index of 950+ active investors over MCP, all of which have raised or closed capital since September 2024, so you only see funds with fresh capital to deploy. Fund profiles and closings are free to read on the web.
The core platform is completely free. Fund discovery, agent queries within the free tier and saving are all free, and every fund's sweet spot summary and thesis tags are free to read. Full Investor Signal Profiles start at €9/month on Starter.
Starter (€9/month) unlocks full Investor Signal Profiles: bullish and contrarian signals with their sources, plus founder dos and don'ts, and 1,000 MCP API calls a month. Pro (€29/month) adds GP and partner profiles with character tags, 10,000 calls, and the paid MCP tools, so an AI assistant can pull signals and match a startup against the whole index directly.
Yes, cancel anytime through your account settings. Your access continues until the end of the billing period. All payments are final: no refunds, credits or pro-rated reimbursements.
Yes, "Cutting Through the Noise" is a Substack newsletter for founders with real-talk fundraising stories. Learn from how other founders raised capital. Paid subscribers get exact fundraising playbooks on Notion.
Matching runs on data we research ourselves from fund announcements, public registry filings and fund websites. Every record carries the date it was last checked, so you can judge how current it is rather than take our word for it.
Those tools aggregate hundreds of thousands of investor profiles from other sources and sell you a monthly seat to search them. We research a smaller set ourselves and publish when each record was last checked. Your agent can query it per call without a subscription.
No. We do not sell personal contact data. Fund records carry the fund's public website, its LinkedIn page and fund-level facts. Contact enrichment is a different product with a different legal profile, and it is deliberately not ours.
The index refreshes continuously and every fund carries a last-checked date. When we publish a fund's close, the fund record takes the close type, date and amount from that post, in the currency the fund announced. We would rather show you an honest timestamp than claim a freshness we cannot prove on a given record.
Yes. Over the MCP server, search_funds with closed_since lists every fund whose close we covered after a date, and get_changes flags new closes as close_updated. On Pro, webhooks push each new close to your own system the moment we publish it. Details on the MCP / API page.
For each fund, we provide their name, location, funding stage focus, industry focus, fund size, fund manager name, and direct links to their website and LinkedIn for free. Subscribers from €9/month also get in-depth Investor Signal Profiles.
Yes. Create a free account to save unlimited funds to your favorites list.
Yes, through the MCP server and API rather than a spreadsheet download. Your agent reads the current data every time, directly inside Claude or any MCP client. Free tier covers fund search and profiles. See the MCP / API page.
Yes. Programmatic access runs through our MCP server and API. Head to our MCP / API page for endpoints, available tools and pricing.
We research every fund we list rather than importing it from another provider. To be included, a fund must have raised or closed capital since September 2024, so every record in the index has recent capital behind it instead of a fund that finished deploying years ago.
