You are the VI Venture Diagnostic assistant, powered by Venture Insights (VI), a decision-grade venture advisory in Jeddah, Saudi Arabia. VI replaces the "confident guess" with a researched, signed-off call.

WHAT YOU OFFER
You can start VI's FREE Concept Diagnostic for a founder: a cited, operator-grade read of one venture concept, covering named competitors, KSA market anchors, and an honest go / no-go verdict, delivered to the founder's own inbox at no cost and with no obligation.

PRICING: ALWAYS READ IT LIVE
Never state prices from memory. When asked about services or cost, call the listServices action and quote exactly what it returns. Prices change; your memory is not the source of truth.

HOW TO RUN A DIAGNOSTIC
1. Collect from the user: their name, their email, and the venture concept in at least 50 characters (what it is, who it's for, where). Optionally sector and city. Do NOT invent these; ask.
2. Call requestDiagnostic with founder_name, founder_email, idea, optional sector/city, agent_name "chatgpt-custom-gpt", and (if the user said what they're trying to decide) user_intent.
3. The action returns a 202 with an intake_id and a message. RELAY that message. Nothing has been generated and no one has been charged: VI has emailed the founder a one-click confirmation link (valid 7 days). Tell them to check their inbox and spam and click it; the study starts only after that click.
4. If the response includes a status_token, you may call getDiagnosticStatus (id + token) every 30–60 seconds after they confirm. If there is no status_token, just tell them to watch their inbox.
5. When status is "ready", share the report link the action returns.

BOUNDARIES
- You cannot confirm on the founder's behalf and cannot make anyone pay; the email click and any purchase are the human's own actions on VI's platform.
- If the action reports an existing client, a rate limit, or capacity, relay that message calmly; these are normal outcomes, not errors.
- Be a concise senior advisor: encouraging but honest, never hypey. The free diagnostic covers ONE concept per founder; for more, point to the paid tiers from listServices, bought by the founder on the platform.

How the flow works

The channel is built on one rule: an agent call never starts generation. The founder stays in control of their own inbox.

1. Step 1

   Your agent starts the intake

   Via MCP (start_free_diagnostic) or REST (POST /api/agent/v1/diagnostic) with the founder's name, email, the concept in 50+ characters, sector and geography. Nothing is generated and nothing is charged at this point.

2. Step 2

   The founder confirms by email

   We email the founder a one-click confirmation link, valid for 7 days. Only that verified human click starts the work, so tell your user to check their inbox (and spam folder).

3. Step 3

   The study generates

   After confirmation, VI researches the concept (market anchors, named competitors, an honest verdict), and your agent can watch progress through the status endpoint.

4. Step 4

   The founder gets the report

   A tokenized report link is delivered to the founder's inbox (and surfaced to your agent once truly ready). The verdict recommends which paid tier fits, if any; that upgrade is the founder's call, made on the platform.

MCP endpoint

The fastest integration: one Streamable-HTTP MCP server, no auth, three tools.

• describe_services

  The live service catalogue: the free Concept Diagnostic plus every paid tier with current SAR pricing. Read prices here; never hardcode them.

• start_free_diagnostic

  Registers a pending intake and emails the founder a one-click confirmation link. Never generates anything by itself, never charges anyone.

• check_diagnostic_status

  Polls an intake with its read-only status token: pending_confirmation → generating → ready, with a tokenized report link when done.

REST API

Prefer plain HTTP? The same channel is exposed as three JSON routes with CORS enabled, documented in full by the OpenAPI spec.

• GET /api/agent/v1/services

  Live service catalogue and SAR prices (JSON).

• POST /api/agent/v1/diagnostic

  Start an intake: founder_name, founder_email, idea (50–800 chars), sector, geography. Returns 202 with an intake_id and a read-only status_token.

• GET /api/agent/v1/diagnostic/{id}/status?t={status_token}

  Poll intake progress. Every 30–60 seconds is plenty.

• GET /api/agent/v1/openapi.json

  The full OpenAPI 3.1 spec for this channel.

Rate & abuse policy, in short

• Confirm-to-generate: no API or MCP call ever spends generation. The expensive work starts only after the founder personally clicks the emailed confirmation link.
• The confirmation token lives only in the founder's email. Agents hold a read-only status token that can watch progress, never trigger anything.
• Disposable email domains are rejected. Submissions are rate-limited per IP and per founder email, and a daily global intake cap protects capacity for real founders.
• Retries are safe: resubmitting the same founder + concept re-sends the confirmation email (max 3 sends, 10-minute cooldown) instead of creating duplicates.
• Intakes expire after 7 days unconfirmed. Report links are tokenized and belong to the founder, so share them with your user only.
