## Pick Where You Work

Every option needs an [aVenture account](https://aventure.vc/sign-up); the free
plan works.

#### [AI Apps (MCP)](/mcp)

Add `https://mcp.aventure.vc/mcp` as a custom connector in Claude,
ChatGPT, or Grok, or as an MCP server in Claude Code or any MCP client, then sign in.

#### [Terminal (CLI)](/cli)

Install `@aventurevc/aventure-cli` from npm, then sign in with
`aventure auth login`.

#### [Your Code (API)](/quickstart)

Send REST requests to `api.aventure.vc` with an API key as the bearer
token.

#### [Researchly](https://researchly.chat/profile/mcp-servers)

aVenture is built in. Under Profile, then MCP servers, choose
**Connect aVenture**.

## What the Data Covers

| Records                                                                        | What you get                                                                                         |
| ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ | ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- |
| [Companies](/api-reference/entities/list-entities)                             | Companies, investors, and accelerators, filterable by industry, stage, location, funding, and cohort |
| [People](/api-reference/people/search-people)                                  | Founders and investors, their roles, and their investments                                           |
| [Funding rounds](/api-reference/entity-fundraise/list-entity-fundraise-rounds) | Round, amount raised, valuation, and investors                                                       |
| [News](/api-reference/news/list-news)                                          | Articles linked to the companies and people they mention                                             |

[Search](/api-reference/search/federated) queries all four record types in one
request. [Answer a real question](/first-answer) walks one research flow end to
end: filter companies, open one, and list its funding rounds.

## What You Can Build

[Use cases and examples](/use-cases) has a copy-paste recipe for each of these
jobs: a company's brand kit from its website, matching a list of websites to
companies, target lists, funding histories, investor portfolios, founder
backgrounds, competitors, and news monitoring.
