Deal sourcing

Track investor accounts and surface convergence — multiple accounts following the same entity independently.

# Track accounts
curl -X POST .../v1/track -d '{"username": "pmarca"}'
curl -X POST .../v1/track -d '{"username": "naval"}'
 
# Query convergence
curl ".../v1/convergence?threshold=3&since=7d"

Cross-reference convergence results with your existing deal pipeline to find new opportunities.


Custom classification

Build your own taxonomy on top of Frontrun's AI classification:

# Flag companies in your space
curl -X POST .../v1/classify/rules \
  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  -d '{
    "name": "Competitors",
    "conditions": {"bio_keywords": ["sales automation", "revenue intelligence"]},
    "actions": {"tags": ["competitor"], "priority": "high"}
  }'
 
# All future enriched calls auto-apply your rules
curl ".../v1/follows/enriched?since=7d"

Slack / Telegram / webhook alerts

Push signals to your team's workflow:

Slack example

import requests
 
FRONTRUN = "https://frontrun.vc/v1"
HEADERS = {"X-API-Key": "your_api_key"}
SLACK_WEBHOOK = "https://hooks.slack.com/services/..."
 
convergence = requests.get(
    f"{FRONTRUN}/convergence",
    headers=HEADERS,
    params={"threshold": 3, "since": "24h"}
).json()
 
for signal in convergence.get("convergences", []):
    followers = ", ".join(signal["followed_by"])
    requests.post(SLACK_WEBHOOK, json={
        "text": f"*Convergence signal*: {signal['name']} (@{signal['username']})\n"
                f"Followed by: {followers}"
    })

Telegram example

import requests
 
FRONTRUN = "https://frontrun.vc/v1"
HEADERS = {"X-API-Key": "your_api_key"}
TELEGRAM_BOT_TOKEN = "your_bot_token"
TELEGRAM_CHAT_ID = "your_chat_id"
 
convergence = requests.get(
    f"{FRONTRUN}/convergence",
    headers=HEADERS,
    params={"threshold": 3, "since": "24h"}
).json()
 
for signal in convergence.get("convergences", []):
    followers = ", ".join(signal["followed_by"])
    text = (f"*Convergence signal*: {signal['name']} (@{signal['username']})\n"
            f"Followed by: {followers}")
    requests.post(
        f"https://api.telegram.org/bot{TELEGRAM_BOT_TOKEN}/sendMessage",
        json={"chat_id": TELEGRAM_CHAT_ID, "text": text, "parse_mode": "Markdown"}
    )

Agent integration

Connect Frontrun to your AI agent via the MCP server or REST API. Your agent can monitor deal flow, flag opportunities, and surface signals without manual intervention.

"What are the top convergence signals this week? Flag anything in AI/ML."

See MCP Server and Claude Code for setup.
