MCP Gateway

Secure AI tool access through the Model Context Protocol

Operational

What Is MCP?

The Model Context Protocol (MCP) is an open standard created by Anthropic that lets AI assistants like Claude securely connect to external tools and data sources. Instead of AI being limited to what it knows, MCP gives it controlled access to real systems.

Our MCP Gateway is the secure bridge between Claude and our infrastructure—allowing AI to manage tasks, search files, execute code, and interact with services on our behalf.

How It Works

Claude
MCP Gateway
Tool Filter
Your Tools

When Claude needs to take action—like managing a project in Dart, accessing files, or running commands—the request flows through our MCP Gateway. OAuth ensures only authorized users can access these capabilities, while our filtering layer controls exactly which tools are available.

💰 How This Saves Clients Money

AI API costs add up fast. Our MCP Gateway includes two features specifically designed to reduce your AI spend:

  • Tool Filtering: Only expose the tools you actually need. Fewer tools in context means smaller prompts, which means lower token costs on every single request.
  • Context Optimization: Our gateway strips unnecessary metadata and compresses tool descriptions, reducing the context window usage by up to 40%.
  • Smart Caching: Frequently-used tool responses are cached, eliminating redundant API calls entirely.
  • Usage Analytics: See exactly which tools cost the most so you can optimize your workflows.

Real impact: Clients typically see 30-50% reduction in AI API costs after implementing filtered MCP access.

Why It Matters

AI without action is just conversation. MCP transforms Claude from a chat assistant into a capable agent that can actually do things—search your documents, update your task manager, deploy code, and more.

This is the infrastructure that makes "AI-powered" mean something real. It's not about fancy prompts; it's about giving AI secure, controlled access to the tools you already use—without breaking the bank.

Capabilities

🎯 Smart Tool Filtering

Expose only the tools each user needs. Smaller context = faster responses and lower costs.

Saves 30-50% on API costs

📦 Context Compression

Automatically optimizes tool descriptions and strips unnecessary metadata before sending to Claude.

Up to 40% context reduction

🔐 OAuth 2.0 Security

Enterprise-grade authentication ensures only authorized users can access tools through the gateway.

🔗 Multi-Server Support

Connect multiple MCP servers through a single gateway—Dart, file systems, SSH, and more.

📊 Usage Analytics

Complete visibility into tool usage, costs, and performance for optimization and compliance.

⚡ Response Caching

Intelligent caching of frequently-requested data eliminates redundant API calls.
