The Brains turns founders, CEOs and investors into searchable MCP servers built from their public talks, essays, interviews and posts. Ask how Pieter Levels prices, what Paul Graham says about fundraising, or how Ryan Hoover launched Product Hunt, right inside Claude, Cursor, ChatGPT or Codex. Every answer quotes the source with a link. 37 brains today, one URL per brain or one for all. Free, open source (MIT), unofficial and not affiliated with the people.
