Agent Infrastructure

Evaluating

Composio

MCP Gateway and unified authentication layer for AI agents. One endpoint, 1000+ integrations, OAuth lifecycle managed for you, SOC 2 and ISO certified — with a single switch to revoke an agent's access to every connected system at once.

The AIE Angle

Why Composio made the cut

The hidden cost of giving agents real tools is auth — every Slack, Gmail, Notion, Linear, HubSpot, and GitHub connection is its own OAuth dance, its own token storage problem, its own revocation footgun. Composio collapses that into a single MCP endpoint. You paste the endpoint into Claude or Cursor, SSO authenticates, and the agent gets scoped access to whatever subset of 1000+ tools you've authorized for that team. Authentication, credential storage, and execution are handled inside Composio with SOC 2 + ISO certification, action-level RBAC, and zero data-retention architecture. The argument for adopting it is the same argument for not letting every employee have their own AWS root key: centralized credential management is a one-time effort that pays off the first time you need to off-board someone — or revoke an agent that has misbehaved. We're listing it as **evaluating** while we run the MCP Gateway against our own stack.

5 Ways To Use It

Composio for business

  1. 1

    Replace dozens of one-off MCP server installs with a single Composio endpoint that gives an agent scoped access to Slack, Gmail, Notion, HubSpot, Linear, GitHub, and more.

  2. 2

    Manage OAuth lifecycles (refresh tokens, scope upgrades, revocations) for AI agents centrally instead of in every individual tool integration.

  3. 3

    Enforce action-level RBAC so a customer-support agent can read tickets but not delete them, and an analytics agent can query Snowflake but not write to it.

  4. 4

    Off-board an agent or a team member with a single revocation that kills access across every connected system at once.

  5. 5

    Stand up a compliant production agent stack quickly using Composio's SOC 2 + ISO certification and zero data-retention architecture.

Common Questions

Composio FAQ

The questions business professionals most often ask about Composio.

What is Composio's MCP Gateway?+

It's a single MCP endpoint that fronts 1000+ tool integrations across major SaaS apps. Instead of installing and authenticating an MCP server for each service, you point Claude/Cursor/ChatGPT at the Composio endpoint, authenticate via SSO, and the agent sees only the tools your team is authorized to use. Composio handles OAuth, token storage, RBAC, and execution underneath.

What does Composio's MCP Gateway replace?+

It replaces dozens of individual MCP server installs and their separate OAuth setups. Instead of authenticating Slack, Gmail, Notion, HubSpot, Linear, and GitHub each on their own, you point an agent at one Composio endpoint and it gets scoped access to whatever subset of 1000+ tools you've authorized — with credential storage, token refresh, and RBAC handled centrally.

Why use Composio instead of installing MCP servers directly?+

Three reasons: (1) one endpoint instead of dozens, with unified auth; (2) centralized revocation — off-boarding kills access everywhere with one switch; (3) compliance baked in (SOC 2 + ISO, action-level RBAC, sandboxed execution). The trade-off is you're routing tool calls through a third party — if that's a non-starter for your data, run MCP servers in-house instead.
