Available components
How this component scores in each security and reliability category. Every signal is checked automatically against the live server, and we only credit what we can confirm. How we score → Why this is hard to score →
Endpoint Security63
- The endpoint's TLS certificate is valid, in date, and uses a strong key. View diagnostics → Pass
- Authorisation not fully verified: no authorisation is required to call this server, and 8 tool(s) never declared a destructiveHint. The MCP spec treats an absent hint as destructive by default, so we cannot call this surface safe. See how to fix → View diagnostics → Unverified
- HTTPS is enforced; there's no plaintext access path. View diagnostics → Pass
- The HSTS (Strict-Transport-Security) header is present. View diagnostics → Pass
- DNSSEC check failed: this domain isn't protected by DNSSEC. See how to fix → View diagnostics → Fail
Transport & Reachability100
- Verified streamable-http transport via a live MCP handshake. View diagnostics → Pass
Schema Quality & AI Usability76
- AI-judged instruction clarity (excellent).Pass
- Context-footprint check failed: tool/resource definitions use about 1060 tokens (~132/item across 8 items; 8 tools + 0 resources), over budget; trim descriptions and params. See how to fix → Fail
- Usage-examples check failed: none of the tools include examples. See how to fix → Fail
Stability & Change Management100
- No destabilizing schema changes in the last 30 days.Pass
Tool Coverage96
- 100% of tools have a non-trivial description (not blank, and not just the tool's name).Pass
- 88% of tool parameters carry a description.Partial
Tool Safety100
- No prompt-injection markers were found in the server instructions, tool names or descriptions we captured.Pass
- We read all 8 captured tool definition(s), and no name or description among them implies an irreversible operation.Pass
- An AI judge read all 9 captured unit(s) of tool text and found none that tries to manipulate the model reading it.Pass
Capabilities100
- Implements a supported MCP spec version (2025-11-25); the latest is 2026-07-28.Pass
How do I install the Tech.eu Funding Explorer MCP server?
Tech.eu Funding Explorer is a hosted endpoint at https://funding.tech.eu/api/mcp, so there is nothing to install locally. Ready-made configuration for Claude, Cursor, VS Code, Codex and 5 more is on this page, copied from each client's own documentation.

The tools this component advertises to a client, with an estimated token cost for each. Expand a tool to see its parameters and schema. The per-tool counts are indicative and are not scored directly; the schema's total context footprint is one signal in Schema Quality & AI Usability. A tool's description is untrusted text the model reads on every call, which is what makes this list a security surface and not just an inventory: how tool poisoning works →
find_companies ~62
Find companies by name (case-insensitive substring). Returns id, location and verified funding totals; pass the id to get_company for the full profile.
| Name | Type | Req | Description |
|---|---|---|---|
| query | string | yes | Company name or fragment, e.g. "Theker", "mistral" |
No output schema declared.
No examples provided.
get_company ~64
Full company profile: description, location, sectors, every funding round with stage/amount/investors, named backers, exit if any. Figures are source-linked on the company page URL.
| Name | Type | Req | Description |
|---|---|---|---|
| id | string | yes | Company id from find_companies or search_rounds |
No output schema declared.
No examples provided.
get_investor ~84
Investor profile: deal count, companies backed, stage mix, portfolio and recent deals.
| Name | Type | Req | Description |
|---|---|---|---|
| compact | boolean | – | Lean profile to save context: top 15 portfolio companies by €, top co-investors, no year-by-year breakdown |
| name | string | yes | Investor display name, e.g. "Accel" or "High-Tech Gründerfonds (HTGF)" |
No output schema declared.
No examples provided.
list_changes ~206
Incremental sync: what was ADDED or REMOVED since a timestamp. Use this — not repeated search_rounds calls — when you keep a local copy in step with the dataset. Sorted oldest-first by ingestion time, so `nextCursor` is resumable: store the last one and start there next run. Reports additions and removals only; the source tables have no modification timestamp, so a silent edit to an existing row is not reported (re-read that record by id when you need its current state). Exits are not available here — that table has no ingestion timestamp.
| Name | Type | Req | Description |
|---|---|---|---|
| after | string | – | Opaque nextCursor from a previous call |
| limit | number | – | Max results (default 25, cap 100) |
| since | string | yes | Start of the window: a date (YYYY-MM-DD) or the ISO timestamp your last sync ended at |
| type | string | – | What to sync — "rounds" (default) or "companies" |
No output schema declared.
No examples provided.
market_map ~106
Aggregate the European funding picture for a period in ONE call: totals (disclosed €, rounds, companies, investors, exits), concentration, and breakdowns by country, sector and stage — with provenance (disclosed %, high-confidence %, ECB reconciliation Δ). Beats paging every round to sum client-side. Defaults to the current year.
| Name | Type | Req | Description |
|---|---|---|---|
| period | string | – | A year ("2026"), quarter ("2026-q1") or month ("2026-01"); defaults to the current year |
No output schema declared.
No examples provided.
search_exits ~141
European tech exits and M&A (acquisitions, IPOs), newest first with a nextCursor. Filter by date window and by the exited company's country (use it for "European exits"). Most deal values are undisclosed — valueEur is null in ~65% of exits.
| Name | Type | Req | Description |
|---|---|---|---|
| after | string | – | Opaque nextCursor from a previous call |
| country | string | – | Exited company country, e.g. "UK", "Germany", "France" |
| from | string | – | Earliest exit date, YYYY-MM-DD |
| limit | number | – | – |
| to | string | – | Latest exit date, YYYY-MM-DD |
No output schema declared.
No examples provided.
search_investors ~81
Search investors (entity-resolved: name variants are merged). Sortable by deal count or company count.
| Name | Type | Req | Description |
|---|---|---|---|
| page | number | – | – |
| query | string | – | Investor name or fragment, e.g. "accel" |
| sort | string | – | – |
| type | string | – | Investor type filter, e.g. "Venture Capital" |
No output schema declared.
No examples provided.

| country | string | – | Country filter, e.g. "UK", "Germany", "France", "Türkiye" |
| from | string | – | Earliest round date, YYYY-MM-DD |
| limit | number | – | Max results (default 25, cap 100) |
| minAmountEur | number | – | Only rounds of at least this many EUR |
| sector | string | – | Sector filter (canonical), e.g. "AI", "Fintech", "Healthtech", "Software", "Cleantech", "Energy" |
| stage | string | – | Stage filter, e.g. "Seed", "Series A", "Debt", "Grant" |
| to | string | – | Latest round date, YYYY-MM-DD |
No output schema declared.
