Eliminates credential exposure and NAT traversal friction when connecting Claude to APIs.

Connect AI agents to any API, anywhere. Securely. Open-source gateway that proxies requests, injects credentials automatically, punches through NAT to reach localhost services, and wraps REST APIs as MCP tools. Per-agent isolation. Never expose a raw key.

Why it matters

Eliminates credential exposure and NAT traversal friction when connecting Claude to APIs. Enforces per-agent isolation so compromised agents can't access other services' credentials.

Best for

Teams deploying Claude agents that need secure, isolated access to internal APIs, SaaS platforms, or localhost services without credential sprawl.
