MCP Servers
Bridging AI and Business Systems
MCP (Model Context Protocol) Servers act as intelligent translators between AI agents and business systems, transforming complex enterprise APIs into AI-understandable interfaces. They provide secure, scalable, and semantically rich connections that enable AI agents to interact naturally with any business system.
