MCP Comparison
Compare features, tools, and capabilities of these MCP servers side by side.
OpenMCP
OpenMCP is a dual-purpose framework: a standard for converting web APIs into MCP servers and an open-source registry of servers that follow that standard. Each OpenMCP server exposes a token-efficient MCP interface that enables MCP clients to make requests to a target web API on behalf of users. Together, the servers in the registry enable client LLMs to fetch data and perform actions across a broad set of domains, providing a scalable, interoperable way to integrate external services with MCP clients. The documentation guides you through creating a server, adding it to MCP clients, and converting various web API formats into OpenMCP-compatible servers, covering REST, gRPC, JSON-RPC, GraphQL, SOAP, and PostgREST variants.
NCP - Natural Context Provider (NCP)
NCP is a unified MCP platform that consolidates 50+ tools, skills, and Photons into a single, intelligent interface. It enables code-mode execution, on-demand loading, scheduling, and semantic tool discovery, dramatically reducing token usage and latency while enabling AI assistants to work with external MCPs, skills, and Photons. This documentation covers how NCP works, the available MCPs and tools, installation and integration steps for popular clients (Claude Desktop, VS Code, and more), and practical examples that demonstrate how to find, run, and compose tools across MCPs. Whether you’re building with internal MCPs or exploring external tools, NCP provides a scalable, vendor-agnostic foundation for AI-powered automation and tool orchestration.
