GimmeTheSauce MCP
A read-only MCP connector that brings public founder research into AI assistants. It allows users to find makers by product or specialty, look up published decisions, and retrieve source links, summaries, and dates to judge relevance. The server supports tools like find_mentors and search_sources to query public libraries without accessing private data.
Endpoint and access
