Platforms that support MCP for connecting AI to your apps quick comparison

MCP (Model Context Protocol) is the standard that lets AI tools like Claude and ChatGPT actually interact with your business apps instead of just talking about them. Here’s what I’ve tested: Val Town: Interesting approach for developers. Cloud-based runtime where you write small TypeScript functions that become MCP-accessible tools. Great for custom, code-first integrations where you need full control. But you’re building each connection yourself. Stainless: Takes a unique angle on API standardization. Generates strongly-typed SDKs from OpenAPI specs.
