```ts theme={null}
import { Deepline } from 'deepline';

const deepline = await Deepline.connect();
const result = await deepline.tools.execute(
  'fundable_search_investors',
  {
    "identifiers": {
      "ids": [

## Input reference

Use this endpoint when the requested result is a list of investor firms. Filters under `company_investments` identify qualifying portfolio companies and deals, then return the firms that participated in those deals. For example, use this route to find San Francisco-based investors that participated in a Seed round during the last year. Use `POST /people` with investor filters instead when the desired result is an individual angel investor or lead partner attached to a firm. Use `POST /deals` when the desired result is the matching funding rounds themselves. ## Request Body Structure Send a JSON body with up to 3 filter sections plus pagination/sort at the top level: - `identifiers` - Look up specific investors by UUID, domain, LinkedIn, or Crunchbase - `investor` - Filter by investor entity attributes (location, employee count) - `company_investments` - Filter by portfolio (industries, See the live schema below for the complete notes.
