One secure endpoint for every MCP server. Deploy anywhere.

MCP Mesh is an open-source control plane that unifies MCP traffic from various clients to servers, providing a single governed endpoint for authentication, routing, and observability. It replaces complex M×N integrations with a streamlined solution, ideal for multi-tenant organizations needing workspace-level policy and credential management.
