# Metorial

> Metorial is agentic infrastructure that connects AI agents to more than 1,200 tools and data sources through the Model Context Protocol (MCP). Its serverless runtime hosts MCP servers that boot in under a second and hibernate when idle, while handling OAuth, permissions, RBAC/SSO, and full tracing so companies can ship customer-facing agents without building integration plumbing. Founded in 2025 by Karim Rahme and Tobias Herber, the open-source, Apache-2.0 project is part of Y Combinator's Fall 2025 batch and is often described as the 'Vercel for MCP.'

## Products & services

- **Metorial Platform** — Serverless runtime that hosts Model Context Protocol servers with sub-second cold starts and hibernation, so tools spin up on demand and idle to zero. Self-hostable core engine.
- **Magic MCP** — A single URL that connects any MCP-compatible agent client (Claude, Cursor, ChatGPT, Copilot) to 600+ integrations with zero configuration.
- **Protoguard** — Security layer that inspects and blocks unsafe agent requests and prompt-injection attempts before they reach connected systems.
- **Integrations Catalog** — 1,200+ verified integrations across SaaS tools, enterprise systems, data sources, and custom MCP servers.
- **Access Control & Tracing** — RBAC, SAML SSO, IAM integration, scoped per-agent permissions, and full audit logs of every agent session and tool call.
- **SDKs & CLI** — JavaScript/TypeScript and Python SDKs for single-function agent integration, plus an agent-first command-line interface and Starbase, an MCP debugging/testing utility.
