Fundz tools (7)
write = sends, deletes, buys or postsget_benefit_plans_in_playFreeRecently funded companies (≤24 months) with a DOL Form 5500 benefit-plan filing on record: plan renewal timing, participant count vs current headcount ('outgrowing their plan'), and the incumbent insurance carrier from Schedule A. For benefits brokers, retirement-plan advisors, PEOs, HR-tech sellers. No API key required.
get_broker_directoryFreeWho broker-of-records whom: directory of 58,000+ benefits brokers from DOL Form 5500 Schedule A Part 1, ranked by filings carried, with sponsor counts and commission volume per broker. For carriers, broker M&A, benefits-tech sellers, and brokers scouting competitors. No API key required.
get_funded_and_hiringFreeCompanies with a verified funding round in the last 12 months AND live hiring evidence (open ATS roles, executive hires, hiring signals) — the strongest buying window, score-ranked and refreshed daily. No API key required.
get_lender_directoryFreeWho finances whom: directory of 11,800+ UCC secured parties (lenders) ranked by filing volume, with active-lien counts and lapsing-soon exposure per lender. California + Colorado coverage (CO refreshed daily). No API key required.
get_money_in_motionFreeCompanies with an executive-move announcement in the last 180 days AND a verified funding round in the last 24 months — the wealth advisor's 'money in motion' moment: a new comp package (often equity), an old 401(k) to roll over, benefits about to be re-evaluated. Score-ranked, refreshed daily. For RIAs, wealth managers, retirement-plan advisors, executive-benefits sellers. No API key required.
get_refinancing_windowsFreeCompanies whose active UCC-1 liens lapse within 12 months (Renewal Radar). UCC liens expire after 5 years — the incumbent lender must re-file or lose priority, so each approaching lapse is a refinancing window with a date on it. For lenders, MCA/ISO, and equipment finance. California + Colorado coverage (CO refreshed daily). No API key required.
get_stacked_borrowersFreeCompanies with active secured debt (UCC-1) from 2+ distinct lenders and a filing in the last 24 months — proven appetite for layered financing; second-position and refi/consolidation targets. California + Colorado coverage (CO refreshed daily). No API key required.

FundzWatch MCP Server
Listed on
The key-less AI-agent gateway to FundzWatch answer sections — real-time business-event intelligence via the Model Context Protocol.
Give Claude, Cursor, Windsurf, Cline, or any MCP client live access to verified funding rounds, executive moves, UCC refinancing windows, Form 5500 benefit-plan signals, and AI-scored leads matched to your ICP.
7 of the 14 tools work with no API key, no signup, and no account — point your agent at the server and it returns live, daily-rescored "answer section" data on the first run, each row carrying the Fundz page that supports it. The other 7 (AI-scored leads, watchlists, full event feeds) need a Fundz Pro or Strategic seat.
Hosted assistants (ChatGPT, Claude.ai, Gemini, Grok) — no install
This package is stdio: your client spawns it as a local subprocess, which hosted assistants cannot do. For those, point the client at the remote endpoint instead — no key, no signup, no account:
https://mcp.fundz.netAdd it as a custom connector / MCP server URL. It speaks Streamable HTTP (protocol 2025-06-18, negotiating back to 2024-11-05) and serves the same seven key-less tools.
Quick Start
Option A — npx (Claude Desktop, Cursor, Windsurf, Cline)
No install needed. Add this to your client's MCP config:
{
"mcpServers": {
"fundzwatch": {
"command": "npx",
"args": ["-y", "@fundzwatch/mcp-server"],
"env": {
"FUNDZWATCH_API_KEY": "fundz_test_your_key_here"
}
}
}
}Config file locations for Claude Desktop:
- macOS: ~/Library/Application Support/Claude/claudedesktopconfig.json
- Windows: %APPDATA%\Claude\claudedesktopconfig.json
- Linux: ~/.config/Claude/claudedesktopconfig.json
The env block is optional. Omit it entirely and the 7 key-less tools still return live data. The keyed tools (AI-scored leads, watchlists, full event feeds) require a Fundz Pro or Strategic seat — see fundz.net/pricing.
For Cursor / Windsurf / Cline, use the same block under their MCP settings (the inner "fundzwatch": { ... } object).
Option B — Smithery (hosted, one-click)
FundzWatch is live on Smithery: smithery.ai/servers/fundzwatch/fundzwatch-mcp
npx -y @smithery/cli install @fundzwatch/mcp-server --client claudeThen just ask
- "Which companies raised in the last year and are hiring right now?" (no key)
- "Show me UCC liens lapsing in the next 12 months in California." (no key)
- "Find recently funded companies with a Form 5500 plan and a named carrier." (no key)
- "Get my AI-scored leads with buyer-intent above 70." (key)
- "Track stripe.com and github.com and alert me on new events." (key)
