Founderhood exposes a public read API, agent-friendly llms.txt, and a remote MCP server at https://founderhood.app/api/mcp (Streamable HTTP). Submissions are human-reviewed; rate limits match POST /api/submit.

MCP tools

  • search_founders — optional city, country, category, query
  • list_cities — cities with listing counts
  • get_founder — one listing by slug
  • submit_listing — same fields as /api/submit (submission_source=mcp)
