AI Expert Network connects businesses with MCP server developers who build Model Context Protocol integrations for Claude Code, Claude Desktop, and other MCP clients. Projects include custom tool servers, enterprise integrations, and SaaS connectors.
Find Model Context Protocol developers. Build tool integrations for Claude and other MCP-compatible clients.
An MCP developer builds Model Context Protocol servers, the open standard Anthropic created to connect Claude to your tools and data. Instead of gluing the API to each system by hand, you get a reusable server that exposes resources, tools, and prompts any MCP client can use.
Done well, one MCP server works across Claude Code, Claude Desktop, and any other MCP compatible client, so the integration outlives any single product.
Ask whether they have shipped a server against a real backend with authentication, not a toy weather example. The hard parts of MCP are auth, error handling, and keeping tool definitions tight enough that the model uses them correctly.
A strong MCP developer can explain why they exposed a given operation as a tool versus a resource, and how they kept the model from calling the wrong thing.
A custom MCP server typically runs $5,000 to $20,000 depending on the number of integrations and the auth model. Simple read only connectors sit at the low end, while multi tool servers with write access and permissions cost more. Hourly, MCP specialists on the platform cluster around $150.
MCP is becoming the default way to give Claude first class access to internal systems. Building it properly once means every future Claude project in your company starts from a working integration instead of from scratch.
MCP (Model Context Protocol) is an Anthropic-developed open standard for connecting LLMs to external tools and data sources. MCP servers expose resources, tools, and prompts that Claude can use during a conversation.
MCP servers let you give Claude first-class access to your internal systems without building glue code every time. An MCP developer builds reusable servers that work across Claude Code, Claude Desktop, and any MCP-compatible client.
