Your team is pasting API keys into a dozen MCP configs, with no idea who can reach what. Switchboard is one governed endpoint for all your tools — connect 36+ integrations to Cursor, Claude Code, Claude Desktop, Codex, Windsurf, and any MCP client, with SSO, policy controls, and up to 90% token savings.

Connect your entire stack. Every integration is available through a single MCP endpoint.
One MCP endpoint replaces dozens of separate tool configs. Your AI client gets GitHub, Datadog, Slack, Linear, AWS, Google Workspace, and 30+ more through a single connection.
Switchboard's compaction pipeline strips redundant fields, columnarizes tabular data, and renders markdown before responses reach the LLM. A built-in dashboard tracks exactly how many tokens and dollars you're saving in real time.
Multi-tenant from the ground up: organizations, departments, SSO, and fine-grained role-based access. ABAC policies and glob tool-filtering decide exactly which member's agent can reach which system — and the audit log proves it.
Let agents query Postgres and Kubernetes behind your firewall through a customer-run, outbound-only agent. No inbound ports, no credentials stored in the cloud, and read-only enforced on your side — not ours.
Need something we don't support? Import any OpenAPI or GraphQL spec, or build custom integrations as Wasm plugins and deploy them to your org. They get the same compaction, policy controls, and audit logging as built-in ones.
The difference is obvious the moment you open your config.
Most gateways dump every tool definition into the prompt — hundreds of schemas the model has to read on every call. Switchboard exposes just two meta-tools.
Your agent searches for the capability it needs in plain language. Only the handful of matching tools come back — not the entire catalog. Adding your 40th integration costs zero prompt tokens on unrelated calls.
Run any tool by name, or chain several across integrations in a single server-side script. Intermediate results never round-trip through the model, so a five-step workflow costs one call's worth of context.
Set shared context once (owner, repo, environment) and it's injected automatically. Every result is pinned and referenceable by handle, so the model reuses data instead of re-fetching and re-reading it.
One gateway, three very different problems solved.
Roll out MCP to the whole org from one place. Add or remove integrations centrally, push config without touching a single developer's machine, and onboard a new hire with zero credential sharing.
Credentials encrypted at rest, ABAC policies deciding who reaches what, and an audit log that proves it. Reach private data through an outbound-only, read-only tunnel — no inbound ports, no keys in the cloud.
Skip the per-tool setup dance. One endpoint in Cursor or Claude Code and your agent can reach everything — with ~90% fewer tokens per call. Free forever for solo use.
You can — until you have a team. Here's what changes.
| Raw MCP servers | Generic tool hubs | Switchboard | |
|---|---|---|---|
| Setup per developer | One config entry per tool | Per-tool connectors | One endpoint URL |
| Credential storage | Plaintext local files | Vendor cloud | AES-256-GCM, self-hostable |
| Context / token cost | Full tool catalog in prompt | Varies | search + execute meta-tools |
| Access control | — | Basic roles | ABAC + glob tool filtering |
| Audit log | — | Some | Every mutation & tool call |
| Data behind your firewall | Manual | Rarely | Outbound-only read-only tunnel |
| Source-available | Varies | Usually closed | Elastic License 2.0 |
Switchboard sits between your AI clients and your tools, handling auth, routing, and context optimization.
Need to reach data behind your firewall? A customer-run tunnel agent dials out to Switchboard, so agents can query private Postgres and Kubernetes with read-only enforcement on your side — no inbound ports, no credentials stored in the cloud.
Free for individuals. Flat monthly team plans — no per-seat surprises. Most teams save more in tokens and consolidated tool subscriptions than the plan costs.
