Hi Product Hunt!

At Merge, our mission from day 1 has been: make secure data access easy.

We started with our Unified API product, which today powers customer-facing integrations for thousands of B2B SaaS companies including BambooHR, Ramp, Drata, BetterHelp, and MistralAI.

5 years into building integrations, we’re seeing a growing interest in third-party connectors for agentic use cases. Companies building agents need an easy, scalable way to securely give their agents access to third-party tools.

That’s why we’re so excited to launch Merge Agent Handler: the most secure platform to deploy, manage, and connect AI agents to third-party tools.

The platform offers:
- Comprehensive authentication management for tools
- A Connector Studio for building and maintaining custom integrations and tools
- Preconfigured security rules, plus support for fully customizable rules
- Detailed logging and real-time alerts for security violations
- An evaluation suite to validate connector quality and consistency

We’re bringing everything we’ve learned from building integrations to agents. We’d love for you to try out Merge Agent Handler (it’s free to sign up and get started) and leave us any feedback!

Thanks for checking us out! We can’t wait to see how you power your agents with Merge Agent Handler!

Farhan Nazir ✪

The connector studio sounds good . Curious how it lowers the overhead for building and maintaining niche integrations ?

Jonathan Gitlin

Thanks for the question, @farhan_nazir55 . One of our product managers will get back to you on this shortly!

Yash Gogri

Hey @farhan_nazir55! Connector Studio is designed to make spinning up new connectors as seamless as possible. You can generate them just by dropping in API doc URLs, GitHub links, or even a short description of the system and functionality you want supported.

Once generated, Merge continues to handle authentication and credential management, so the end-user experience remains the same between Merge-managed and custom connectors.

You can mix and match custom connectors with Merge-managed ones in the same tool pack, and expose them together through a single MCP server for a unified experience. On top of that, we provide issue management, observability, and alerting—so you’ll have full visibility into performance and be instantly notified of any problems.

Irene Hu

@farhan_nazir55 Thanks Farhan! Yeah - we're really excited about the Connector Studio being a game changer for our users!

Abdul Rehman

Awesome launch! Any plans to open-source parts of the Connector Studio?

Jonathan Gitlin

That's a great question,@abod_rehman . One of our product managers will get back to you on this shortly!

Yash Gogri

Hey @abod_rehman — really appreciate the feedback! 🙌

We do have longer-term plans to open-source parts of Connector Studio, starting with connectors themselves. The goal is to make it easy for developers to contribute updates and new connectors that the whole community can benefit from. We’d love to see an ecosystem of builders working together to expand what’s possible here.

Shensi Ding

@abod_rehman Yes! That's definitely a part of the plan. :)

Thank you for engaging and checking us out!

Irene Hu

@abod_rehman Thanks Abdul for the support! In the meantime, if you have any connectors you need let us know and we'll put it on the roadmap!

Amazing! What's next on the roadmap?

Shensi Ding

@garymlin SO MUCH -- more connectors, more security features, more evals!!! Should be good. :)

Yash Gogri

Hey @garymlin - happy to share more!

The next quarter alone, we're planning on adding:

  • 40+ new connectors

  • Third-party webhooks / triggers to kick off agentic workflows based on third-party updates

  • More Connector Studio functionality to make building custom connectors and tools even easier

  • More tracing features to log tool calls with chat sessions identifiers and custom groupings

  • Tons more security features, including things like anomaly detection

  • SO much more

As you're getting into the product - feel free to flag any feedback directly to me! Looking to iterate fast and make sure you're getting lots of value from us 🙂

Muthu

Merge has already made integrations so much easier for our team, and I’m really excited to see how Agent Handler takes it even further - especially with the way it’s checking all the boxes on security and auth which is critical in our space.

Looks super promising for some of the use cases we’ve got on our roadmap. Big congrats to the team!

Shensi Ding

@muthurg Oh my gosh, thank you so much for the kind words!!
