We’ve just begun implementing Composio. Would love to reconsider if you help clarifying the main differences. From my perspective it looks like you have more robustness features to me as a developer and you’re fully open source (not just the client) whereas Composio has more integrations. But would love your input to clarify. Congrats on the launch!

Wen here, the co-founder. I actually spent a couple hours today to take the time to give you a comprehensive answer. 1. As you said, Composio doesn’t allow self-hosting and the source code isn’t available. We want to follow PostHog’s playbook in letting devs run everything on their own infrastructure and open sourcing all our MCP containers. 2. A huge benefit of this approach is that we can let you fork any MCP serve…

Wow, thanks a LOT for that comprehensive answer! Very helpful!

Two questions I didn’t manage to find answers to: * Do you have or plan support for webhooks? The scenario for us is that we’d ideally have one platform for setting up customer integrations for which we will make requests to and await request from * When you host, do you expose the access and refresh tokens for the connected integrations? The use cases for us are: * If we wanna make a feature / request that seems out of scope for Metorial * If we wanna migrate from Metorial, we don’t want to force our customers to have to reconnect * I love that we can bring our own OAuth apps which would be the default for us. But to try out an integration out or for (from our perspective) low prio integrations we’d still like to offer - do you offer your own OAuth apps that we can piggy back on. Just to save the customer from the effort of having to set up an OAuth apps foe each service. I know it comes with a lock in, but it’s worth it in some cases for us.

You’ve made me very excited to try you out, so I’ll implement support for both Composio and Metorial.

Thanks again for taking the time and efforts to answer so thoroughly!

I wrote a book about MCP: https://leanpub.com/practical-mcp I'm considering adding more chapters to the book: security, easy deployment, etc. So, I may look into your solution. I believe there are other players also, like Klavis AI, FastMCP and some MCP startups that I cannot remember. Congratz!

Alpic.ai also provides a really sweet solution for simple MCP hosting, with MCP analytics and DCR delegation for Oauth

I was wondering when books were going to start popping up. Looking forward to reading. Have you written about MCP gateways for helping companies route all MCP traffic through one plane for observability, security, and compliance? Happy to chat through that. I just recorded an end to end demo of what we are working on: https://vimeo.com/1127330739/ee1fe5245b

Not yet. I'm still considering what content to add to the existing book. I'll likely (90% probability) include security and easy deployment. But since you said that, I'll consider the observability and compliance topics.

Thx. I'll look into it.

Possibly some overlap with https://www.utcp.io ?

That looks very interesting. Though, we’re also a hosting platform in addition to the nice APIs and SDKs. Plus, we provide observability and much more. Still, something to explore. Thanks for sharing.
