}Tools
Generate startup ideas
Synchronous idea generation - the backing route for the generate_ideas MCP tool. Spends no scan quota or tokens. Free accounts get 5 generations per rolling 24 hours per account (GENERATION_LIMIT when exhausted); paid-or-credited accounts bypass the cap and get limit: null. pro: true (Pro model) requires a paid plan and is refused with PRO_PAID_REQUIRED otherwise. Founder-profile tailoring is automatic on paid plans with a saved profile (fit: false opts out); the response’s fitReason and fitHint state why tailoring did or did not apply.
