Agencies are shipping AI agents to their clients โ Claude, Cursor, Vercel. But before any AI runs, they need to plug into the client's tools: Meta Ads, Google Ads, GA4, HubSpot, Shopify, Stripe. Building OAuth flows and MCP servers for each client burns 4-8 hours per client. That's infrastructure tax, not a feature.
Dev time to build one MCP server for one client's tool stack from scratch
Client accounts an average agency runs โ each requiring isolated MCP endpoints
Hosted MCP-as-a-service solutions for agencies that are natively multi-tenant
"We spent 3 weeks building MCP integration plumbing before we could run a single AI report for a client. That's not a product -- that's infrastructure tax."

Agency connects a client's tools through Nango OAuth. No API keys to manage.
A scoped, multi-tenant MCP server is auto-provisioned instantly.
One URL. Your Claude agent connects immediately.
Built on Nango's OAuth infrastructure
Nango handles the hardest part: OAuth token lifecycle and 300+ integrations. We handle the MCP layer.
4,700+ MCP servers registered
20x growth in 4 months
MCP is now THE way for AI to connect to external systems.
MCP is 4 months old. Everyone else is still building.
OAuth + 300 integrations are solved. We layer MCP on top.
Agencies are shipping AI. They need a path to integrate clients.
API/integration tooling + AI infrastructure market. Growing 50%+ YoY. Includes Zapier, Make, n8n, custom integrations, and now MCP servers.
Digital agencies running AI agents: 50K+ agencies globally. Avg 12 client accounts. Total addressable spend on integration infrastructure: ~$4K/yr per agency.
Year 1 target: 2,000 subscribers at $157 ARPU ($3.14M/yr). Year 2: 8K subs at $157 ARPU ($12.56M/yr). Conservative but achievable.
Reference: Nango raised $14M Series A doing half of what MCPGateway does (just OAuth, no MCP layer).
