AI-Builder platforms helps you to build, deploy, and onboard intelligent AI agents using standardized, containerized tools via the **Model Context Protocol (MCP)** and **gRPC**.
> ⚡ **No custom wiring**
> 🔧 **Define once, deploy anywhere**
> 🚀 **Plug in any tool. Power any agent.**
## 📦 What is MCP?
**Model Context Protocol (MCP)** is an open standard for enabling AI systems to access external data sources and tools in a structured, secure, and composable way.
Think of it as **USB-C for AI agents** — a uniform interface to expose:
- Tools (actionable functions)
- Prompts (reusable LLM interactions)
- Resources (context/data fetchers)
With MCP, LLMs can interact with real-world services with minimal friction.
## 💡 Why FastMCP?
[**FastMCP**](https://github.com/jlowin/fastmcp) is a Python-first framework for building MCP servers.
Define your tool with a decorator, and FastMCP handles the rest.
