Launch HN: Manufact (YC S25) – MCP Cloud
manufact.com pzullo
Manufact, a YC S25 startup, launched a cloud platform for deploying and managing MCP (Model Context Protocol) servers in production, positioning itself as the Vercel equivalent for MCP development. The platform offers deployment, testing across ChatGPT and Claude, automated submission checks for app stores, and MCP-specific analytics, with usage-based pricing and free credits for new users. Developers can now more easily build, test, and distribute MCP integrations as AI applications increasingly rely on these protocol-based connections to external services.
Why it matters
Hi HN, we are Pietro and Luigi, cofounders of Manufact (https://manufact.com), a cloud for MCP apps and servers. We used to be called mcp-use, and still build open source SDKs for MCP under that name: https://github.com/mcp-use/mcp-use. We did a Show HN about that last year: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=44747229.Today we want to tell you about our cloud product, Manufact, which is to mcp-use as Vercel is to Next.js. Manufact is an MCP vertical cloud designed for dev teams putting MCP Apps and servers in production.You can ship, iterate on, test and monitor your MCPs, and get them ready for the store submissions. All with the best developer and agent experience in mind.Here is a demo video of the product: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=R2rbr5OT9LI.We have been working on MCP since April 2025. Our first focus was making it easy to build agents that could use any MCP server, and a lot of people started using our SDKs. Then the harness revolution kicked off: Claude Code, Claude Co
