Turning GitHub signals into deal flow

About

I build data products that help seed and Series A investors spot breakout startups earlier. My current project monitors engineering activity across 2,000+ startup GitHub orgs and surfaces unusual acceleration patterns. Previously worked in conversational AI. Obsessed with alternative data, open-source intelligence, and the signals hiding in plain sight.

VC Deal Flow Signal - Spot breakout startups 3 weeks early via GitHub

GitHub is the largest real-time signal of engineering momentum — and nobody's reading it for deal flow. We monitor 2,000+ startup GitHub orgs and rank them by acceleration: commit velocity spikes, contributor growth, deploy frequency. 54 startups live across 18 sectors, updated daily. Free monthly digest, EUR 9.97/mo dashboard, EUR 97/mo Insider Circle with API access. Also works inside Claude (MCP server) and Crunchbase (Chrome extension). Built for angels, scouts, and technical operators.
