Arcade AI is an MCP runtime platform for secure agent authorization, reliable tool execution, and governance, enabling enterprises to deploy authenticated AI agents across Gmail, Slack, Salesforce, and over 100 other services without managing OAuth complexity or token refresh cycles. It solves the critical challenge of giving AI agents secure, auditable access to enterprise applications by providing a centralized authorization layer that handles authentication, permission scoping, and compliance for every tool call an agent makes. Arcade positions itself as the security and governance layer that sits between AI agents and the external services they need to access.
Arcade provides pre-built integrations for common enterprise services with OAuth authentication handling, SDK support for building custom tools, evaluation frameworks for testing agent tool usage, and flexible deployment options for cloud or on-premise environments. The platform includes SOC 2 compliance processes, audit trails for every action, configurable spend limits for commerce applications, and fine-grained permission controls that ensure agents only access what they are authorized to use. Arcade offers a generous free tier with 1,000 tool executions monthly, 100 user authentications, and access to all pre-built integrations without requiring a credit card.
Arcade AI targets enterprise development teams, platform engineers, and AI architects building production agent systems that need secure, compliant access to business-critical applications. It integrates with popular agent frameworks and supports the Model Context Protocol for broad compatibility across the AI ecosystem. Arcade is particularly valuable for organizations in regulated industries like finance, healthcare, and legal that need audit trails, access controls, and compliance guarantees when deploying AI agents that interact with sensitive enterprise data and external services.
