GitDealFlow — GitHub signals for startup investors
48 toolsSTDIOregistry active
Summary
Pulls engineering velocity signals from a curated set of 85+ startups across 20 sectors, surfacing commit activity, contributor growth, and repo expansion as early traction indicators. You get five read-only tools: query trending startups globally, filter by sector (AI/ML, fintech, climate tech, etc.), look up a specific startup's signal profile, grab a dataset summary, or fetch the methodology. All data comes live from a public API updated weekly. Useful when you're sourcing deals and want GitHub activity as a leading indicator before cap tables and pitch decks arrive. The same dataset powers a prediction game and two Chrome extensions for Crunchbase and GitHub if you want the signals in other contexts.
Keep your Mac awake while Claude Code and 40+ AI agents run. Sleeps when they're idle.

VC Deal Flow Signal — MCP Server
Search startup engineering acceleration signals directly from your AI assistant.
Glama A-Tier (4.9 / 5.0 across 6 tools). One-line install for Claude Desktop, Claude Code, Cursor, Cline, and Continue via
npx -y @gitdealflow/mcp-signal.
Tracks commit velocity, contributor growth, and repository expansion across 20 sectors and 85+ startups. Built for angels, scouts, and technical operators looking for traction signals before they show up in traditional deal flow.
Install
Add to your Claude Desktop config (claude_desktop_config.json):
{
"mcpServers": {
"vc-deal-flow-signal": {
"command": "npx",
"args": ["-y", "@gitdealflow/mcp-signal"]
}
}
}
Or for Claude Code (.mcp.json in project root):
{
"mcpServers": {
"vc-deal-flow-signal": {
"command": "npx",
"args": ["-y", "@gitdealflow/mcp-signal"]
}

Data
All data is sourced live from signals.gitdealflow.com public API. No API key required. Updated weekly on Mondays.
Complementary: the Scout Game
If you want to put your own eye on the line, there's a prediction game on top of the same dataset at signals.gitdealflow.com/predict. 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.
