GitDealFlow — GitHub signals for startup investors
io.github.kindrat86Published by GitHub account kindrat86v2.2.2Updated Oct 24, 2026
GitHub engineering acceleration signals for venture deal flow across 15 sectors.
The publisher's own server: SentientData Market Scan
Overview
A local MCP server that lets an assistant search GitHub engineering-acceleration signals on 350+ startups across 15 sectors for venture deal flow.
- What you can do
- Search and rank startups by engineering acceleration, overall or filtered by sector, stage, geography or signal type, and shortlist the strongest signals. Retrieve a single startup's signal profile, compare two to five startups side by side, and get a scored funding-likelihood claim with its evidence chain. Pull a cited public-source diligence dossier or a Scout Score from a GitHub username. Read dataset metadata, refresh dates and methodology notes, or use paid tools for enriched dossiers, investment theses and multi-cohort sector scans.
- When to use it
- Useful for angels, scouts and technical operators who want early traction signals from GitHub activity before they appear in conventional deal flow, and for quick sector scans, startup comparisons or diligence lookups inside an assistant.
- Requirements
- Runs as a local process via npx from the npm package @gitdealflow/mcp-signal, so Node.js is needed. The free tools need no API key or account. Paid tools cost €0.10 per call and require credits; the hosted remote endpoint also offers a €0.19 per-call tool. Network access to the provider's public API is required.
Installation
In SourceWeft
- Open GitDealFlow — GitHub signals for startup investors in the dashboard and add it to a workspace.
- Enable the server for the chats that should use its tools.
Desktop only via STDIO. STDIO servers start a local process, so they need the SourceWeft desktop host.
Other MCP clients
Follow the launch instructions in the repository.

Call which tracked startups raise a round in the next 6 months, earn points when your calls resolve, climb a public rank ladder from Curious to Oracle. Free tier: 3 predictions per month. Paid: 10 per month. Leaderboard: signals.gitdealflow.com/leaderboard.
Complementary: two Chrome extensions
Same dataset, different surfaces. Install one or both:
- VC Deal Flow Signal — Crunchbase + Wellfound badge: a green "Accelerating" engineering-acceleration badge appears inline on any Crunchbase or Wellfound startup profile where the GitHub data is interesting. For investors who research deals in browser tabs.
- VC GitHub Lookup — Startup Signals on Hover (NEW, May 2026): hover any GitHub repo or org link to see commit velocity (14d), velocity change vs prior period, contributor count and growth, signal type, and stage estimate. Chip injected on direct repo and org page loads. Toolbar opens a manual lookup form for any GitHub URL. For developer-investors who live on GitHub.
Both are free in perpetuity. Manifest V3, no analytics, no account.
