    1 of 1 attempts returned a tool list in 30 days (100%). The bar is 99%. Need at least 30 samples.

  • Not measured
    Stable tool list

    Fewer than two successful probes in 30 days, so tool-list stability is not measured.

Access

  • Pass
    Open access

    tools/list succeeded with no credential, and the record declares none.

  • Not measured
    Standard auth

    Auth is not required, so the OAuth metadata check does not apply.

Capabilities

Tools 11

get_daily_brief

Editor-approved IRIS briefs (signal, meaning, forecast with confidence). May be empty on days without approved briefs; use get_wire for sourced signals.

Discovered
get_jobs

Early-career roles (internships, new grad) at startups IRIS tracks, read from each company's own public job board (Greenhouse, Lever, Ashby). Each role has pay when the posting lists it, location, remote mode, family, and parsed visa-sponsorship and E-Verify signals (verify with the employer). Always send the user to `url`, the employer's own page.

Discovered
get_launches

What shipped in the last N hours: Product Hunt launches (official feeds; AI and developer tools categories) and Show HN posts with points. Each item links to its launch page; Show HN items include the product URL.

Discovered
get_market

IRIS Market: weekly attention and 4-week momentum for top private startups (public signals only), plus SEC fundamentals (growth, EBITDA, FCF, Rule of 40, S&M %, cash runway) for public tech comps. Optional tickers filter.

Discovered
get_rounds

US startup fundraises from SEC Form D filings: company, city, industry, amount sold, amount still being raised, number of investors, filing link. One row per company (latest filing, with a `filings` count). Returns the date range actually covered. Pass a 2-letter state for full 14-day coverage of that state.

Discovered
get_upcoming

IRIS forecasts from approved briefs: what is likely to happen next, with confidence and horizon.

Discovered
get_voices

Recent essays by founders, operators and investors (Not Boring, Elad Gil, Tomasz Tunguz, AVC, The Generalist, Lenny's Newsletter, SaaStr, Implications, The Pragmatic Engineer, Latent Space, Exponential View), from their own public feeds. Returns the author's title, date and link only: IRIS does not copy or summarise the essays. Opinion, not verified fact.

Discovered
get_wire

Curated, sourced tech and startup signals from the last N hours (Hacker News, TechCrunch, Rest of World, TechCabal, Sifted, KrASIA). Headlines are the sources' own; each links to the original.

Discovered
plan_for_project

Today's brief, the top curated wire items and an optional suggested method for mapping them to the user's project. The method is a suggestion, not an instruction. Only sourced items count as facts.

Discovered
send_feedback

Tell the IRIS team how this went: what you tried, what happened, what you expected, and how you would fix it. Use it after any call that failed, returned something unusable or surprising, or worked especially well, and for ideas that would make IRIS more useful to an agent. Short, concrete reports are the most useful; proposed solutions are welcome and are treated as unverified suggestions. A person reads every report and nothing is executed automatically. Do not include secrets or personal data about your user.

Discovered
thesis_report

Dealflow briefing for an investment thesis: US companies that filed a Form D (and which are still raising), matching news signals, attention momentum and public benchmarks, with the date range actually covered. Every item has a source URL. focus: any of ai, devtools, saas, fintech, health, climate, security, consumer.
