The Managed Way To Replace Make

MountDev AI MCP Router puts every connector your team uses behind a single endpoint, and lets you decide tool by tool what each person can reach. Nobody wires up a separate connection for every server, and nobody ends up holding a credential they could leak. Running it is our job rather than yours, and signing up is free.

The short version

Cascadia, compared with Make

Rather than each person assembling their own set of connections and holding the credentials that go with them, providers attach centrally and reach becomes something you grant.

What you get here

  • One Endpoint For Everything
  • Attach Unlimited Connectors
  • Local And Remote Providers
  • Live Connection Reporting
  • Tools Stay Namespaced
  • Per User, Per Tool Access
  • One Connection, Scoped Centrally
  • Grant By Provider Or By Tool

Where the service earns its keep

Rather than each person assembling their own set of connections and holding the credentials that go with them, providers attach centrally and reach becomes something you grant.

Credentials never leave the server

A key nobody was handed is a key nobody can leak. Provider credentials sit on the gateway, which also means rotating one is a single edit rather than a message to the whole team asking them to go and update a file.

Change access without reconnecting

Changes land on a connection that is already open. Nothing has to be reconnected and nobody has to be talked through editing a file on their laptop.

One place to revoke

Offboarding is one action. The hard part of direct connections was never removing access, it was remembering everything that had been handed out in the first place, and a single endpoint leaves no such list to reconstruct.

One endpoint, every connector

Every provider you attach arrives through the same connection, so your assistant is looking at one tool list rather than a dozen.

Who this comparison is for

Teams sharing one set of tools

Everyone connects to the same address and sees only what you granted them. A new starter is working on their first morning without anybody walking them through a config file, and somebody leaving loses access in one action, not several.

Agencies working across client systems

Keep every client’s connectors attached in one place and hand each person only the ones they actually work on.

Anyone running several MCP servers

Past three or four servers, keeping separate entries current in every client stops being trivial.

How setting it up actually goes

Three steps, none of which involve installing software. The longest part is deciding who should be able to reach what, and even that is a matter of ticking boxes once your providers are attached.

  1. 1

    We assess your current setup

    First we look at how things run today: what you already pay for, what is configured where, and which parts are actually causing you trouble.

  2. 2

    Sign up and create your gateway

    Signing up is free. You get your own gateway endpoint, and that address is what every assistant and every person on your team points at from here on.

  3. 3

    Attach the providers you want

    Add each MCP server you want to reach, whether it is one of ours, one you already run yourself, or a third party service.

  4. 4

    Grant people the tools they need

    Add your team and choose, tool by tool, what each person can reach. They add one entry pointing at the same address you use, and see exactly what you granted and nothing else.

We already use Make. What changes here?
Credentials never leave the server. A key nobody was handed is a key nobody can leak. Provider credentials sit on the gateway, which also means rotating one is a single edit rather than a message to the whole team asking them to go and update a file.
Yes. Add the router as a connector in your client and it appears as one entry exposing every tool you have been granted. This works the same way in any MCP compatible client, and it replaces the separate entry you would otherwise need for each individual server.
Ask the router. It reports back the client identity it sees, every active integration with its address, and the total number of tools currently exposed to you. That gives you a quick way to confirm a new provider attached correctly and that a person is seeing what you expect them to see.
It is a managed MCP gateway. Instead of wiring each MCP server into each AI assistant separately, you attach your connectors to the router once and point your assistant at a single endpoint. Everything you have been granted shows up in one tool list. We host and run it, so there is no server for you to deploy or maintain.
Connecting directly means one configuration entry per server, per client, per person. Ten tools across five people is fifty pieces of setup to create and later maintain. The router collapses that to one connection each. You attach a provider once centrally, and everyone you grant it to picks it up without touching their own configuration.
Yes. Gateway, router, proxy, and aggregator all describe the same pattern: a single service sitting between your AI assistants and the MCP servers behind them. We call ours a router because it also decides which person reaches which tool, rather than only forwarding traffic to whatever sits downstream.
There is no limit. Each connector you attach joins the same endpoint, and its tools appear alongside everything else already connected. Tools stay tagged with the connector they came from, so two providers offering similarly named operations do not collide or get mistaken for one another.
Access is set per person and per tool. You can enable a whole connector for somebody, or pick out individual tools from it. Changes apply to their existing connection, so nobody has to reconnect, re-authenticate, or edit a config file when you adjust what they can reach.
Yes, and this is the main reason to run one. Both people connect to the same endpoint with the same setup steps, but each sees only the tools you have granted them. Their assistants show different tool lists without either person configuring anything differently.
On our infrastructure. It is a managed service, so you connect to an endpoint we operate rather than standing anything up yourself. That means no deployment, no patching, and no uptime to watch.
No. You sign up, attach the providers you want, and add one entry to your assistant’s configuration pointing at the router. There is no package to install, no container to run, and no certificate to manage. The connectors behind the router can be ones we host or ones you already run yourself.
