Your Investor List Now Lives Inside Claude and ChatGPT

You get twenty matched investors, a scorecard PDF, a CSV and three drafted emails for every firm. Then you open ChatGPT and start pasting them in, one investor at a time. I call that the copy-paste tax , and you can stop paying it. InvestorMatch now runs an MCP server. MCP, the Model Context Protocol, is the standard that lets an AI assistant such as Claude or ChatGPT talk to another product directly. Connect once and your assistant can search our investor directory, read your matches, open your outreach drafts and pull your deck teardown, with nothing pasted. I've been a CEO three times and an investor since 1996. The work of a raise is the same as it ever was: pick the right investors, write to each one like you mean it, follow up. What changed is where founders do that work. A lot of it now happens in a chat window, so that's where your list should be. There are two doors, and one needs no account The server has two addresses. Pick by what you want to do. The public door: https://investormatch.pro/mcp/public . No sign-in and no account. Your assistant can search the VC directory by stage, sector and location, open a firm's full public profile (thesis, check size, partners, portfolio and funds) and search our fundraising guides. The account door: https://investormatch.pro/mcp . Sign in with your InvestorMatch account when your assistant asks. It gets everything behind the public door, plus your own campaigns and teardowns. Search investors from the chat you already have open Ask in plain words. For example: "Find seed funds in New York that invest in fintech and show me the partners at the top three." Your assistant runs the search, opens the profiles and answers from our directory. Here's the quiet part about asking an assistant for investors without a source: it answers from memory. Memory gives you funds that stopped investing, partners who moved on and check sizes that were never real. An assistant reading a directory can only tell you what's in the directory, and that is the point. Ask for the filters first. The directory uses fixed names for stages, sectors and locations. Have your assistant list them once and every later search lands. Use it to cut your list. The four filters in my playbook for finding investors are stage, check size, sector and geography. Your assistant can now check them firm by firm while you do something else. Your campaign and teardown, without the downloads folder Sign in through the account door and your assistant can read what you already have with us. Your matches. Every matched investor, best fit first, with the fit score, the reasons and the partner to pitch. Your outreach drafts. The three cold-email variants and two LinkedIn messages we drafted for each investor. Your files. Download links for your deck, the investor CSV, the scorecard PDF, the warm-referrals PDF, a PDF for each investor and a ZIP of all of it. The links work for 24 hours. Your deck teardown. The readiness score, the critical issues and the action plan, plus the report PDF. Then put it to work. A few requests to start with: "Read my teardown and tell me which slide to fix first, and why." "Take the email draft for my top match and cut it to five lines. Keep the line about why this partner." "Build a tracking table of my matches with the partner, the fit score and the date I plan to email each one." "Which of my matches fit best, and what do they have in common?" Two things to know. If you haven't paid for a campaign yet, your assistant sees what the site shows you: your top three matches in full and the rest as rank and score. And the outreach drafts get written the first time you open the Outreach tab on the site, so open it once before you ask for them. You decide what it can touch Before you connect an AI to anything with a payment button, ask what it can do when you aren't looking. When you connect, an InvestorMatch sign-in screen lists what the assistant is asking for. Reading your campaigns, matches, drafts and teardowns is the base. Some assistants also ask to create and edit campaigns, start teardowns, send pitches or make purchases. Read the list, then approve it or deny it. Anything that spends money or sends email takes two steps. The first call returns a quote, or refuses, and does nothing. It runs only when the assistant calls again with an explicit confirmation. So tell your assistant in plain words: ask me before you confirm anything. You can disconnect any assistant from your account settings whenever you like. Setup is one address and a sign-in Copy the address. Use https://investormatch.pro/mcp if you have an account, or the public address above if you don't. Add it as a custom connector. In Claude, go to Settings, then Connectors, then Add custom connector. In ChatGPT, go to Settings, then Connectors or Apps, and add a custom connector. The menus move between versions and the address stays the same. Whether custom connectors are available depends on your Claude or ChatGPT plan. Sign in when asked. With the account address, your assistant opens an InvestorMatch sign-in page. Approve it and you're connected. Ask a first question. "List my campaigns" is a good one. If the answer has your company name in it, you're done. If you use Claude Code, it's one line: claude mcp add --transport http investormatch https://investormatch.pro/mcp The full tool list and the rate limits are in the MCP docs . A list is worth nothing until it turns into sent emails I could have built another dashboard. I built this because a match list only pays off when it becomes emails sent and meetings booked. The founders who close fast work the list: one investor, one specific email, one follow-up, repeat. That work is writing and judgment, and an assistant that can see your real matches and your real deck feedback is a better partner for it than any screen I could design. Keep downloading the PDFs and the CSV if you like them. They aren't going anywhere. And if your raise already runs through an assistant, let it read your list. No campaign yet? Upload your deck and you'll have matches to ask about in minutes. If you have one, copy the address, connect it and ask for your top five investors. Then send the first email before you close the chat. Frequently Asked Questions What is the InvestorMatch MCP server? The InvestorMatch MCP server lets an AI assistant such as Claude or ChatGPT use InvestorMatch directly. It follows the Model Context Protocol, an open standard for connecting assistants to other products. Through it an assistant can search the investor directory and, once you sign in, read your campaigns, matches, outreach drafts and deck teardown. Do I need an InvestorMatch account to use it? No. The public address, https://investormatch.pro/mcp/public, needs no sign-in and covers investor search, firm profiles and fundraising guides. You need an account only to reach your own campaigns, files and teardowns through https://investormatch.pro/mcp. Can my AI assistant spend my credits or send emails for me? Only if you approve that permission when you connect. The sign-in screen lists everything the assistant is asking for, and a read-only connection cannot spend or send. Even with permission, each purchase or email needs a second, explicit confirmation call before it runs. You can disconnect an assistant from your account settings at any time. Which files can my assistant get from a campaign? Your deck, the investor CSV, the scorecard PDF, the warm-referrals PDF, a PDF for each investor, a ZIP of everything and your teardown PDFs. The download links last 24 hours. Files from a campaign you haven't paid for, or a teardown you haven't bought, are listed as not available yet. Does it work with assistants other than Claude and ChatGPT? Yes. Any assistant or agent that supports remote MCP servers can connect to the same two addresses. Developers can also authenticate with an API key instead of the sign-in page.
