Tools & Capabilities Breakdown

Sieve Mcp Tools (8)

sieve_screen

Run a Sieve IMPACT-X Quick Screen on a startup. Analyzes the company across 7 dimensions (Innovators, Market, Product, Advantage, Commerce, Traction, X-Factor) and returns an analysis ID. Takes 2-5 minutes to complete. Upserts -- if the company was previously screened, returns the existing deal (set confirm=true to re-screen). Two ways to use: - v3 (recommended): First add documents with sieve_dataroom_add, then call sieve_screen(deal_id=...) to analyze everything in the data room. - v2 (legacy): Call sieve_screen(company_name=..., website_url=...) directly. At least one of website_url or pitch_deck_text is required in this mode.

sieve_status
