Tools

Tool	What it answers	Ask your assistant
`who_owns`	Current PE owner(s) and the full ownership history of a company: entries, exits, routes.	"Who owns Bark.com?"
`gp_portfolio`	Portfolio companies of a PE firm, filterable to active or exited positions.	"List the active portfolio of PAI Partners."
`gp_exits`	Exits of a PE firm, optionally for one year — the query generic AI search gets wrong.	"What did Ardian exit in 2024?"
`search_companies`	Search 21,000+ PE-backed companies by name.	"Find companies named Revima."
`search_gps`	Search 900+ European PE firms, with country, AUM and strategies.	"Search PE firms named Astorg."

All tools are read-only (readOnlyHint: true) and query GP Intel's own dataset — no open-web access, no third-party calls.
