Model Context Protocol

Connect your systems to AI once, not once per vendor.

The Model Context Protocol is the open standard that connects AI to your systems, tools and data. Anthropic created it and gave it to the industry, and it is now supported by OpenAI, Microsoft, Google and hundreds of server implementations. We build and run MCP connections in production, including on our own infrastructure.

In plain terms

Every AI integration used to be a one off. MCP ends that.

One protocol between your systems and every AI tool that speaks it. Here is what changes.

Without it

  • A custom integration for every AI tool and every system
  • Work redone each time a vendor ships a new product
  • Access rules scattered across one off connectors
  • Integration effort that dies with the project

With it

  • One server per system, reused by every MCP client
  • New AI tools connecting to what you already built
  • Access scoped and governed in one place
  • Integration work that compounds instead of expiring

Questions we hear a lot

Common questions about the Model Context Protocol

What is MCP in plain terms?

A standard plug between AI and your systems. Build the connection once as an MCP server and any AI tool that speaks the protocol can use it, with your rules attached.

Is MCP only for Claude?

No. Anthropic created it, but it is an open standard supported by OpenAI, Microsoft, Google and a large ecosystem of tools and servers. Connections you build are portable across vendors.

Is it safe to connect our systems to AI?

With proper design, yes. Each server exposes only what you choose, with authentication, scoped permissions and audit. We treat every connection as a security boundary.

Do we need to build our own servers?

Often not. Hundreds of pre built servers exist for common platforms. Custom servers matter for your bespoke and line of business systems, and that is where we do our best work.

Why does an open standard matter here?

Because it stops every integration being rebuilt for each AI tool. Anthropic created MCP and gave it to the industry, and it is now supported by OpenAI, Microsoft and Google. A connection you build once can serve whichever assistant you use next year.

What does an MCP connection actually let Claude do?

Read from and act on the system at the other end: query a database, look up a record, file a ticket, fetch a document. The difference from pasting information into a chat is that the AI reaches current data itself, under permissions you set.

How do we control what a connection can reach?

By scoping it deliberately and reviewing it. A connection should expose the smallest set of actions the job needs, run under an identity you can audit, and be listed somewhere so it is not forgotten. Broad access granted once and never reviewed is the risk.

How long does a first connection take?

A straightforward one to a system with a decent interface is usually days. The time goes into deciding what it should be allowed to do and getting that agreed, rather than into the building.
