AI-Generated Startup Lists

Prompt → curated list of matching startups. Pass a natural-language brief ("stealth AI agent startups in Israel founded after 2024") and the engine runs a Google-grounded search, parses the results, finds or creates the matching startup rows, and returns up to 50 IDs you can hand to /lists/submit to publish. Pair with /v1/lists/submit for a complete prompt-to-public-list workflow. Each call: 5 credits.
