    search_roundsSearch European tech funding rounds (cited, EUR-normalized at the ECB rate on the round date). Returns newest first with a `nextCursor` for pagination.
    find_companiesFind companies by name (case-insensitive substring). Returns id, location and verified funding totals; pass the id to get_company for the full profile.
    get_companyFull company profile: description, location, sectors, every funding round with stage/amount/investors, named backers, exit if any. Figures are source-linked on the company page URL.
    search_investorsSearch investors (entity-resolved: name variants are merged). Sortable by deal count or company count.
    get_investorInvestor profile: deal count, companies backed, stage mix, portfolio and recent deals.
    search_exitsEuropean tech exits and M&A (acquisitions, IPOs), newest first with a nextCursor. Filter by date window and by the exited company's country (use it for "European exits"). Most deal values are undisclosed — valueEur is null in ~65% of exits.
    market_mapAggregate the European funding picture for a period in ONE call: totals (disclosed €, rounds, companies, investors, exits), concentration, and breakdowns by country, sector and stage — with provenance (disclosed %, high-confidence %, ECB reconciliation Δ). Beats paging every round to sum client-side. Defaults to the current year.
    list_changesIncremental sync: what was ADDED or REMOVED since a timestamp. Use this — not repeated search_rounds calls — when you keep a local copy in step with the dataset. Sorted oldest-first by ingestion time, so `nextCursor` is resumable: store the last one and start there next run. Reports additions and removals only; the source tables have no modification timestamp, so a silent edit to an existing row is not reported (re-read that record by id when you need its current state). Exits are not available here — that table has no ingestion timestamp.
