The Beta Launch of Contexa AI

Contexa is a web-based platform to help you *find, deploy, and even generate* MCP tools effortlessly.

Here’s what you get in the beta:

*Prebuilt, hostable MCP servers*

We’ve built and hosted servers for:

- `PostgreSQL` - `Context7` - `Magic MCP` - `Exa Search` - `Memory MCP`

(And we’re constantly adding more — join our [Discord](https://discord.gg/f6ZBC6kE) to request new ones.)

*OpenAPI-to-MCP tool generator*

Have an internal REST API? Just upload your OpenAPI spec (JSON/YAML) and hit deploy. Contexa wraps your endpoints into semantically meaningful MCP tools, adds descriptions, and spins up an MCP server — *privately hosted just for you*.

*Works with any MCP-capable client*

Whether you use Cursor, Windsurf, Claude, or your own stack — all deployed MCP servers from Contexa can be plugged in instantly via SSE. No need to worry about the plumbing.

---

We know this is still early. There are tons of features we want to build — shared memory, agent bundles, security policies — and we’re already working on them.

For now, if you’re a dev building agents and want an easier way to plug in tools, we’d love your feedback.

Join us, break stuff, tell us what’s broken — and help us shape this.

Let’s make agents composable.
