Synorb gives AI agents what venture capital firms publish, such as Andreessen Horowitz, Sequoia Capital, Accel, General Catalyst and Techstars: portfolio updates, investment views, essays and podcasts, each as a short summary with key claims and a link to the source. Agents connect through an MCP server or a REST API, so it works in Claude, ChatGPT and other agents. Synorb publishes this guide.
Why agents need VC firm sources
Venture firms announce new investments, back portfolio companies in public and explain where they think markets are going, on their own sites and podcasts. For founders, investors and anyone tracking a market, that is early signal. It is spread across many small sites that an agent cannot watch on its own.
What Synorb covers
- More than 140 venture capital Streams in Synorb's catalog on October 24, 2026, for example Andreessen Horowitz, Sequoia Capital, Accel, General Catalyst, Union Square Ventures, Madrona, Mayfield, Techstars and AgFunder.

Frequently asked questions
Can ChatGPT or Claude track what VC firms publish?
Yes, when connected to Synorb. They can list new posts and podcast episodes by firm or topic and link each one.
Does it cover funding rounds?
Synorb covers what the firms and companies publish themselves, which often includes new investments. It is not a funding database.
Can my agent watch all the firms at once?
Yes. Start from the Venture Capital Beacon, or save your own list of firms as a Beacon. Synorb never pushes. Your agent runs the Beacon when it wants to, every morning or on demand, and reads only what is new. See how to set up a morning news briefing.
Which firms are covered?
Ask your agent to search Synorb's catalog for a firm by name; searching is free and does not use Manifests.
