MCP Platform Development Services

We build MCP platforms that manage tool ecosystems for AI: registries, permissions, usage controls, and observability—so tool calling scales safely across teams and products.

Overview

What this service is

This service designs and builds an MCP platform layer: tool registry/catalog, authentication and permissioning, usage controls, and operational visibility.

We implement governance features—access boundaries, audit logs, and safe rollout patterns—so tools can be added without risking uncontrolled actions.

You get a production-ready platform foundation with documentation and an execution roadmap for expanding tools, teams, and workloads.

Benefits

What you get

Scale tool calling safely

Manage permissions and usage so multiple tools and teams can operate without chaos.

Clear governance and auditability

Audit logs and access rules so tool usage is traceable and controllable.

Faster onboarding of new tools

A registry and conventions that reduce one-off integration overhead.

Operational visibility

Monitoring and usage analytics so failures and cost drivers are visible early.

Multi-tenant readiness

Architecture that supports org/team separation and permission isolation where needed.

Maintainable long-term foundation

Clean modules and documentation so the platform can evolve without rewrites.

Features

What we deliver

Tool registry + catalog

A structured registry for tools, versions, and metadata so discovery and onboarding are consistent.

Authentication + permissions

RBAC and scoped credential patterns for controlling tool access at user/team/org levels.

Usage controls + quotas

Rate limits, quotas, and safety checks to prevent runaway tool usage and cost surprises.

Audit logs + observability

Trace tool calls, failures, and downstream actions with logs and dashboards where needed.

Reliability patterns

Retries, idempotency, and safe error routing so the platform behaves predictably under load.

Deployment + operational guidance

CI/CD and runbook notes for releases, upgrades, and safe expansion of tool ecosystems.

Process

How we work

1
1 week

Discovery

We map your tools, users, governance requirements, and success metrics for the platform.

2
1–2 weeks

Architecture

We design registry, auth, usage controls, and observability—then define the milestone plan.

3
3–10 weeks

Build

We implement platform modules iteratively with demos and acceptance checks per milestone.

4
1–2 weeks

Hardening

We validate permissions, audit logs, and reliability patterns under realistic scenarios.

5
3–5 days

Launch + handoff

We deliver runbook notes and an execution roadmap for expanding tools and teams safely.

Use Cases

Who this is for

Internal tool platform for assistants

A governed tool registry that connects to internal systems with permissions and audit logs.

Multi-team AI operations

Enable multiple teams to add tools safely with isolation and usage controls.

Customer-facing AI tool features

Expose controlled tool calling within a product with tenant-safe access boundaries.

Compliance-aware tool execution

Traceability and permission models that support audit requirements for sensitive operations.

Tool ecosystem expansion

Add tools over time with a consistent platform layer instead of accumulating one-off scripts.

FAQ

Frequently asked questions

If you have multiple tools, teams, or governance needs, a platform layer helps manage permissions and usage consistently. We can start with one server and evolve.

Yes. We can design tenant/org isolation and permission boundaries so tool access is separated cleanly.

Yes. Usage controls are important for cost and safety. We can implement rate limits, quotas, and guardrails aligned to your product needs.

Yes. We can log tool calls and actions to support compliance and debugging.

Yes. The platform is designed for incremental expansion with consistent onboarding patterns.
