The short version
Composio ranks first because its free Hobby plan covers 100,000 tool calls and unlimited connected accounts across 1,500+ toolkits, and the Pro plan starts at $29 a month. Pipedream Connect is a close second with the largest documented catalog, 10,000+ prebuilt tools across 3,000+ APIs, plus a proxy for any endpoint it lacks, though production starts at $99 a month. Arcade.dev is the security-first pick, with delegated authorization and a $25 Team plan. Nango suits teams that want open source roots and per-connection pricing, and Scalekit offers 30,000+ tools with EU data residency on its $99 Growth plan. Zapier MCP is the simplest way to give an existing MCP client access to 9,000+ apps. Merge Agent Handler, StackOne and Paragon ActionKit target B2B products and enterprises, with usage or contract pricing.
Short answer
Composio is the best AI agent tool integration platform for developers who want managed auth and a large tool catalog in 2026, with 100,000 free tool calls a month; Pipedream Connect suits teams that want 10,000+ tools across 3,000+ APIs behind one MCP endpoint. The cheapest verified paid option is Zapier at $19.99 a month, and Composio, Arcade.dev, Nango, Scalekit and Pipedream all have free tiers.
This list is for developers giving AI agents authenticated access to SaaS tools such as Gmail, Slack, Salesforce or Jira on behalf of real users. Every platform here handles the OAuth flow, stores and refreshes tokens, and exposes ready-made tools to the agent through an SDK, an API or an MCP server. We compared documented features, catalog sizes and published prices on each vendor's own pages and docs, and scored capabilities at 40%, ease of setup at 30% and value at 30%. Starting prices are the cheapest paid plan in USD per month. We left out Smithery, which shut down its MCP proxy and managed identity on October 31, 2026, and vendors whose products no longer target this use.

Price
Hobby free with 100,000 tool calls a month; Pro $29 per month with $29 in monthly credits
Quoted from the Composio pricing page on November 9, 2026:
Pro $29 / mo
Composio ranks first because it pairs a large catalog with the most generous free allowance on this list. The Hobby plan includes 100,000 tool calls, 50,000 triggers, unlimited connected accounts and three team members a month without a credit card, and every plan gets the full set of 1,500+ toolkits. Composio handles OAuth consent, token storage, refresh and scopes for each connected account, and exposes tools through SDKs, a CLI for coding agents and a managed MCP gateway. Triggers start background agents from events in connected apps, and the Firewall feature blocks instructions hidden in tool results before the agent reads them. Pro costs $29 a month, includes $29 in monthly credits that do not roll over, and adds unlimited team members and spend controls. The main caveat is the shared OAuth apps: Composio says they work in production but are not built for production scale, so plan to register your own apps before launch.
What it does well
- +Hobby plan includes 100,000 tool calls and 50,000 triggers a month
- +Unlimited connected accounts on every plan
- +Pro adds unlimited team members and spend controls
Where it falls short
- −Composio-managed OAuth apps are not built for production scale
- −Only 20,000 free calls can use Composio-managed apps
- −SSO, SCIM and customer-managed keys need Enterprise
- Hobby
- $0, 100,000 tool calls and 3 team members a month

Price
Free with 2,000 tool calls a month; Team $25 per month plus $0.01 per tool call
Quoted from the Arcade.dev pricing page on November 9, 2026:
$25 / month platform fee
Arcade.dev positions itself as the actions runtime between agents and the systems they reach, and its focus is authorization. Authentication runs against your identity provider, authorization is delegated so the agent acts as its user without exceeding its scope, and your policies are enforced in the path of every action, outside the model where a prompt cannot undo them. The catalog covers 8,000+ permission-aware tools, plus custom MCP servers you build or bring, and Tool Recommendation exposes the full catalog while cutting token costs by up to 37% by Arcade's figure. Every action leaves a record naming the agent, the user and the system. The Free plan includes 2,000 tool calls a month, and Team costs $25 a month plus $0.01 per call, which is cheap for low volume but adds up for chatty agents. Enterprise adds VPC or air-gapped deployment, SSO, RBAC and a private registry. Arcade also now runs the Smithery MCP directory.
What it does well
- +Low $25 platform fee with per-call pricing
- +Cloud, VPC and fully air-gapped deployment options
- +SOC 2 compliant with SSO, RBAC and audit logs
Where it falls short
- −Free tier is capped at 2,000 tool calls a month
- −Number of supported apps is not published
- −Team support is next-business-day email only
- Free
- $0, 2,000 tool calls a month

Price
Free in development; Startup $99 per month with 100 users and 10,000 usage credits
Quoted from the Pipedream Connect pricing page on November 9, 2026:
$99 per month
Pipedream Connect has the broadest catalog here: managed auth for 3,000+ APIs and 10,000+ prebuilt actions and triggers, all published on GitHub so you can extend any tool or write your own. Agents can reach them through one remote MCP endpoint with built-in tool discovery, or through the SDK, and each tool runs with the connected account of the user the agent acts for. When no prebuilt tool fits, the Connect proxy sends any HTTP request to a supported API and attaches the user's credentials, which keeps tokens out of your servers. Hosted Connect Link flows mean there is no auth UI to build, and you can bring your own OAuth clients. The free tier includes every feature but only in development. Going live needs the Startup plan at $99 a month, which covers 100 external users and 10,000 usage credits, then $2 per user and $0.012 per credit. That makes it slightly pricier than Composio for small launches.
What it does well
- +Largest documented tool catalog on this list
- +Every feature and unlimited team members in the free development tier
- +Credentials never route through your servers
Where it falls short
- −The free plan cannot run in production
- −$2 per external user above 100 on Startup
- −SSO, SCIM and HIPAA need the Business plan
- Free
- All features in development, unlimited team members
- Startup
- $99 a month, 100 users included, then $2 per user
- Usage credits

Price
Free with hard-capped limits; Pay-as-you-go $50 per month with $50 in credits
Quoted from the Nango pricing page on November 9, 2026:
Pay-as-you-go $50 /mo
Nango is the most code-first platform on this list. It ships pre-built authentication, credential storage and token refresh for 1,200+ APIs and MCPs, along with 10k+ pre-built tools, triggers and syncs, but its strength is letting you extend those templates or write fully custom integrations that run on Nango's infrastructure. Real-time webhooks feed triggers, embeddable UI components handle account authorization, and white labeling removes Nango's name from the auth flow. Pricing is unusual: the Pay-as-you-go plan is $50 a month in credits, then $0.29 per connection, $0.72 per compute hour and $0.50 per GB of data transfer. That is cheap for products with a modest number of connected accounts, though you need to estimate compute for syncs. The free plan caps you at 10 connections, which is enough to test but not to launch. Nango is SOC 2 Type II certified, and Enterprise adds self-hosting, BYOC and HIPAA.
What it does well
- +Per-connection pricing at $0.29 suits products with few heavy users
- +SOC 2 Type II certified
- +Self-hosting and BYOC available on Enterprise
Where it falls short
- −Free plan has only 10 connections
- −Compute time and data transfer are billed separately
- −No EU-hosted cloud yet
- Free
- 10 connections, 10 compute hours and 10GB a month
- Pay-as-you-go
- $50 a month in credits; $0.29 per connection, $0.72 per compute hour
- Growth add-on

Price
Free with 10,000 tool calls a month; Growth $99 per month with 100,000 tool calls
Quoted from the Scalekit AgentKit pricing page on November 9, 2026:
The default choice as you scale. $99 /month
Scalekit AgentKit focuses on the plumbing between agents and the tools they call on a user's behalf. It offers 600+ connectors and 30,000+ ready-to-call tools that Scalekit says are schema-optimized for LLMs rather than thin wrappers over REST endpoints, with auth, retries and rate limits handled on each call. From one config it generates a per-user authenticated MCP URL that any MCP client can use, and you can define custom tools against any endpoint of an existing connector. Tokens live in an isolated per-tenant vault and are injected at runtime, so the agent never sees them. Tool bundles let you give each agent only the tools it needs, which Scalekit claims cuts token overhead by up to 80%. The free plan includes 10,000 tool calls and unlimited connected accounts. Growth costs $99 a month with 100,000 calls, custom connectors and private Slack support, and EU data residency is a $99 add-on.
What it does well
- +Unlimited connected accounts even on the free plan
- +EU data residency available as a Growth add-on
- +Tool call logs export to Datadog, Splunk or any SIEM
Where it falls short
- −Custom connectors and API proxy need the paid Growth plan
- −EU residency costs an extra $99 a month
- −Smaller connector count than Pipedream or Composio
- Free
- 10,000 tool calls and 10,000 trigger events a month

Price
Free plan with 100 tasks a month; Professional from $19.99 per month; each MCP tool call uses two tasks
Quoted from the Zapier MCP pricing page on November 9, 2026:
Starting from $19.99 /month
Zapier MCP is the easiest route on this list: add it to Claude, ChatGPT, Cursor or another MCP client, choose your apps, and the agent can act in them. It draws on Zapier's directory of 9,000+ apps and 66,000+ triggers and actions, and rather than making you pick every tool up front, the agent searches for the right action from your goal. When no standard action fits, Zapier says it writes and runs code to reach an internal API or reshape data. Auth and permissions come from your Zapier account, and useful workflows can be saved as Skills or deployed as Zaps. Zapier MCP is included in every plan, and each tool call uses two tasks from the shared pool, so the free plan's 100 tasks covers about 50 calls. Professional starts at $19.99 a month. The limit for developers is scope: it is designed around your own connected accounts, with an embed option and SDK, rather than a full multi-tenant auth layer for your customers.
What it does well
- +Included in every Zapier plan with no separate contract
- +Works with Claude, ChatGPT, Cursor, Codex, VS Code and many more clients
- +Largest app directory on this list
Where it falls short
- −Each tool call uses two tasks from your plan quota
- −Built around your own Zapier connections, not your product's end users
- −Fewer developer controls than SDK-first platforms
- Free
- $0, 100 tasks a month
- Professional
- From $19.99 a month
- Usage
- Two tasks per MCP tool call
- Reach
- More than 150,000 people have run agent-led actions

No US price was listed when we checked. See the Merge Agent Handler pricing page.
Merge Agent Handler brings Merge's integration background to agent tool calling. It offers thousands of pre-built connectors that Merge maintains with detailed error handling, plus built-in authentication that guides a user through connecting a tool when the agent tries to act on an unauthenticated connector. Tool Packs bundle the exact connectors each agent needs, scoped by agent type, customer tier or environment, so agents only see tools they can call. On the security side, every tool call can be scanned for sensitive data, with policies that block, redact or mask it before it reaches a model or third party, and audit logs are on all plans. Agent Handler is built on MCP, so it works with Claude, Cursor, ChatGPT or any framework. Merge says it is free to start and priced by monthly credits consumed by tool calls, but the public pricing page did not show Agent Handler figures when we checked, so cost is hard to compare.
What it does well
- +Free to start with usage-based credits
- +Strong security posture with SOC 2, DLP and regular penetration tests
- +Works with any agent framework because it is built on MCP
Where it falls short
- −Agent Handler prices are not listed on the public pricing page
- −Higher volume and seat plans are custom priced
- −Catalog leans toward enterprise rather than consumer apps
- Pricing model
- Monthly credits consumed by tool calls
- Audit logs

No US price was listed when we checked. See the StackOne pricing page.
StackOne describes itself as an AI agent integration platform, and it puts governance at the center. One connection gives an agent access to 44,000+ actions across 640+ enterprise apps, and every connector is included on every plan. StackOne handles OAuth, SAML and API key auth, forwards provider webhooks to trigger agent workflows, and connects through MCP, A2A or its API, so it works with Claude, Copilot Studio, Gemini, Glean, Cursor and n8n. Defender Core, its open source prompt-injection defense, scans tool responses before they reach the model on all plans, and Tool Policies set permissions down to the field. The Gateway offer is for your own employees and internal agents, with a free Starter plan of 1,000 credits per seat a month, while an OEM offer covers embedding in your product. Team pricing is seat-based and the figure on the page changes with seat count, so we left the starting price pending. Custom connectors need a paid plan.
What it does well
- +Free Starter plan with 1,000 credits per seat a month
- +Connects via MCP, A2A or API to 60+ AI clients and frameworks
- +Separate Gateway and OEM offers for internal and product use
Where it falls short
- −Seat-based pricing makes cost harder to compare
- −AI Connector Builder needs a paid plan
- −Advanced capabilities such as browser use cost extra credits
- Starter
- Free, 1,000 credits per seat a month
- Team
- 5,000 credits per seat a month, 3 custom connector slots

No US price was listed when we checked. See the Paragon ActionKit pricing page.
Paragon ActionKit is aimed at SaaS companies that want their AI product to act in customers' external apps. It exposes 1000+ integration actions through one API and an MCP server, with a uniform interface across integrations and schemas tuned either for agents or for UI. At query time your agent calls ActionKit to fetch available actions and parameters, and Paragon's embedded UI components or headless SDK handle each user's authentication inside your product. ActionKit is part of a broader platform: every plan also includes Managed Sync for high-volume data ingestion, with a Permissions API for access control in RAG, and Workflows for asynchronous logic in TypeScript or a low-code editor. That breadth suits products that need integrations beyond tool calling. The downside is cost visibility. Pricing is custom and scales with connected customer orgs, both plans say to talk to sales, and there is no self-serve paid tier to compare with the leaders.
What it does well
- +Every plan includes ActionKit, Managed Sync and Workflows
- +Unlimited integrations and custom connectors
- +Self-host or forward-deploy on Enterprise
Where it falls short
- −No public prices; every plan needs a quote
- −Costs scale with the number of connected customer orgs
- −More setup than the self-serve leaders
- Products
- ActionKit, Managed Sync and Workflows
- Pricing basis
- Connected Users, meaning tenant customer orgs
- Sync frequency
- Up to every minute
- Enterprise
- SAML SSO, SLAs, self-host

Before you pick a product or a plan
Decide whose accounts the agent uses
If your agent acts for your product's customers, you need per-user auth: each end user connects their own Gmail or Salesforce, and the platform stores that token separately. Composio, Pipedream Connect, Arcade.dev, Nango, Scalekit, Merge Agent Handler and Paragon are built for this. Zapier MCP and StackOne Gateway are aimed more at your own team connecting the tools they already use.
Compare how usage is billed
Pricing units differ a lot. Composio and Scalekit count tool calls, Arcade.dev charges $0.01 per call on Team, Nango bills $0.29 per connection plus compute time, Pipedream charges $2 per user above 100 plus usage credits, and Zapier MCP uses two tasks from your plan per tool call. Model your expected users and calls before you pick a plan.
Check MCP and framework support
Most platforms now offer a hosted MCP endpoint as well as SDKs. Pipedream runs a remote MCP server with tool discovery, Scalekit generates a per-user authenticated MCP URL, Paragon ships an ActionKit MCP, and Merge Agent Handler is built on MCP. If you use a framework such as LangGraph or the OpenAI Agents SDK, confirm a native adapter or plain function tool format exists.
Plan for your own OAuth apps
Shared vendor OAuth apps get you started fast, but production users will see the vendor's name on consent screens and you may hit shared rate limits. Composio says its managed apps are not built for production scale, while Pipedream, Nango and Scalekit all let you bring your own OAuth clients. Nango's white labeling removes its name from the auth flow.
Weigh security controls
Agents with write access to business systems need guardrails. Arcade.dev enforces policies outside the model and logs every action, StackOne and Composio scan tool results for prompt injection, Merge Agent Handler adds DLP scanning, and Scalekit isolates tokens per tenant with BYOK on Enterprise. Ask for SOC 2 reports and audit log retention before rollout.
Questions readers ask
- What is the best AI agent tool integration platform in 2026?
- Composio ranks first on our list for most developers, with 1,500+ toolkits, managed OAuth and a free plan that includes 100,000 tool calls a month. Pipedream Connect is second for teams that need the widest coverage, with 10,000+ prebuilt tools across 3,000+ APIs.
- What does an agent tool integration platform do?
- It handles the OAuth flow when a user connects an app, stores and refreshes the token, and gives your agent ready-made tools that call the app's API with that user's credentials. Most also provide an MCP endpoint, triggers from app events and logs of every call.
- Is there a free option?
- Yes. Composio, Arcade.dev, Nango, Scalekit, StackOne and Zapier have permanent free plans with usage caps, and Pipedream Connect is free in development. Composio's free tier is the largest at 100,000 tool calls a month.
- Do I still need MCP if I use one of these platforms?
- No, but most platforms support it. You can call tools through their SDKs or APIs, or point any MCP client at a hosted endpoint. Pipedream, Scalekit, Paragon, Merge Agent Handler and Zapier all document MCP access.
- What happened to Smithery?
- Smithery shut down its MCP proxy, managed identity, API and Connect services on October 31, 2026. It remains a public MCP directory powered by Arcade.dev, so we left it off this list.
- How did you rank these platforms?
- We compared documented features, catalog sizes, auth options and published USD prices on each vendor's own pages and docs. Capabilities count for 40% of the score, ease of setup for 30% and value for 30%.
