about us




MCPReady.ai is the official certification authority for platforms supporting the Model Context Protocol (MCP). We provide verification and certification services for technology platforms seeking to demonstrate their MCP compatibility.

Our Mission

Our mission is to establish a trusted standard for MCP implementation across the AI industry. By certifying platforms that correctly implement the Model Context Protocol, we help create a more interoperable ecosystem where language models and service providers can connect seamlessly.

What We Do

  • Certification Process: We evaluate platforms for proper MCP implementation through rigorous technical assessment.
  • Quality Assurance: Our certification ensures platforms meet the technical specifications required for reliable MCP integration.
  • Trusted Badge: Certified platforms receive the official "MCP READ✓" badge to display on their websites and marketing materials.
  • Ongoing Verification: We provide continuous monitoring to ensure certified platforms maintain compliance with MCP standards.

Why Certification Matters

For users seeking reliable MCP-compatible services, our certification provides assurance that a platform has been independently verified. For service providers, our badge demonstrates your commitment to interoperability standards and helps you stand out in the market.
