About this server

Input schema
{'type': 'object', 'required': [], 'properties': {}, 'additionalProperties': False}
funding_summary
Funding totals
Counts for a slice of the funding database: rounds, countries, totals per announced currency, undisclosed rounds and rounds per category. Note: rounds, per_currency and undisclosed count equity rounds only, while by_category covers every category (equity, debt, fund, grant, ipo), so the category split can sum higher than the round count.

get_funding_index
Get the Funding Index
The weekly Builders Fintech Funding Index of approved equity rounds (ISO weeks). Arguments: week (optional, 'YYYY-Www', e.g. '2026-W39') returns that week; otherwise the latest weeks, newest first. weeks (optional, 1–104, default 1) sets how many. Count Index = rounds this week / average of the prior 12 weeks × 100. USD median index uses disclosed USD rounds only (needs 5). Amounts are never converted. Published values are frozen; revised_* shows later corrections. coverage_affected is true when a coverage change falls in the week or its 12-week baseline; coverage_note then explains how the index overstates activity. Unknown arguments are rejected.
