Features overview

Everything you need to connect AI to your business tools

Serve MCP is a hosted Model Context Protocol platform. Connect your apps and databases, then give any MCP-compatible AI client secure, read-only access — in minutes.

The MCP Protocol

What is MCP and why does it matter?

The Model Context Protocol (MCP) is an open standard developed by Anthropic that lets AI assistants securely connect to external data sources and tools. Think of it as a universal adapter between AI models and your business software.

🤖

AI Client

Claude, Cursor, ChatGPT

Your AI assistant sends tool requests via MCP protocol

Serve MCP

Your hosted MCP server

We route, authenticate, and execute tool calls securely

🏢

Your Tools

Shopify, GitHub, PostgreSQL

Your actual business data, accessed safely and read-only

Without MCP, each AI tool needs custom integrations. With MCP, any compliant client works with any MCP server — including yours.

Integrations

Connect the tools you already use

Deep, useful integrations — not just OAuth handshakes. Each connector exposes the tools your AI actually needs.

Shopify

Available now

Connect your Shopify store and let your AI assistant answer questions about inventory, orders, and customers instantly.

Available tools

  • List orders with filters (status, date, customer)
  • Get order details including line items and shipping
  • Search products by title, SKU, or collection
  • List customers and their order history
  • Get inventory levels by location

GitHub

Available now

Give your AI assistant read access to your repositories, issues, pull requests, and code — without exposing your credentials.

Available tools

  • List and search repositories
  • Browse issues and pull requests with filters
  • Read file contents and directory listings
  • Get commit history and diffs
  • Search code across repositories

PostgreSQL

Available now

Connect your PostgreSQL database and let AI query your data using natural language. Read-only — no accidental writes, ever.

Available tools

  • Execute SELECT queries (read-only enforced)
  • List tables and describe schemas
  • Run parameterized queries safely
  • Explore relationships between tables

Security

Built secure from the ground up

We take security seriously. Your credentials, your data, and your team's access are protected at every layer.

Bearer token authentication

Every MCP server request requires a unique bearer token. Tokens are hashed with bcrypt before storage — we never store them in plaintext.

Encrypted credential storage

Third-party credentials (Shopify API keys, GitHub tokens, DB passwords) are encrypted at rest using AES-256-GCM before being written to the database.

Read-only by design

All current tools are strictly read-only. No DELETE, INSERT, or UPDATE operations. Your data is safe while AI explores it.

Workspace isolation

Each workspace has its own isolated set of connections, tools, and tokens. Members can only access workspaces they've been invited to.

Rate limiting

Per-plan call limits prevent runaway AI usage from causing unexpected costs. Soft limits warn you, hard limits stop the requests.

Audit logs

Every MCP tool call is logged with timestamp, tool name, parameters, and response status. Full audit trail for compliance.

Credential encryption flow

1. You enter your Shopify API key in the dashboard

2. Key is encrypted client-side before transmission

3. Stored in DB as AES-256-GCM ciphertext

4. Decrypted only at request time in our secure runtime

5. Never logged, never exposed in responses

Developer Experience

Designed for developers, usable by anyone

A great DX means you spend less time debugging config and more time building with AI.

Hosted MCP endpoint

Your MCP server is hosted at a stable HTTPS URL. No infrastructure, no Docker, no ports to open. Just a URL and a token.

"url": "https://servemcp.com/mcp/{workspace-slug}"

In-app tool playground

Test every MCP tool directly in your browser before connecting to Claude or Cursor. See the exact JSON response each tool returns.

Client-ready config snippets

Copy-paste config for Claude Desktop, Cursor, Windsurf, and other MCP clients. One click, ready to paste.

Token rotation

Rotate your MCP bearer token any time without reconnecting your integrations. Old token is immediately invalidated.
