One Orchestrator. All Your MCP Tools.

NCP sits in front of your MCP stack, cutting token overhead from ~11,000 to ~570 tokens for a 100-tool setup, and making tool discovery instant.

The Token Problem

Every MCP tool you add pushes its full schema into the context window. With 100+ tools, that's thousands of tokens gone before your prompt even starts.

How NCP Works

NCP sits in front of your existing MCP servers as a single orchestrator. Tools are loaded on demand, not upfront.

Intelligent Discovery

High-accuracy natural language tool resolution. NCP finds the right tool from your stack without loading every schema into context.

O(1) Scaling

Token cost stays constant whether you have 10 tools or 1,000. Performance does not degrade as your MCP stack grows.

Governance Built In

Tool-level access control, audit logging, and usage analytics. Know which tools are called, by whom, and how often.

Drop-In Setup

Replace your existing MCP config with NCP. Works with Claude Desktop, Cursor, VS Code, and any MCP-compatible client.

Real-Time Analytics

Health checks, performance monitoring, and token savings dashboards. Track exactly how much NCP is saving you.

Production Tested

Battle-tested across a wide range of MCP servers and tool configurations. Deployed in real production environments.

Ecosystem Adoption

NCP has been accepted into 11+ repositories across the MCP ecosystem.
