What Paragon does

Paragon is integration infrastructure that a company embeds into its own application, using Paragon's SDK and user authentication, so it can display and manage third-party integrations for its end users. Each end user who connects an integration is tracked individually in Paragon as a 'Connected User', and through the same platform the company can call third-party API endpoints and listen for third-party webhook events.

Why teams reach for it: Teams give agents authenticated access to third-party app tools without hosting their own integration and MCP infrastructure.

How will tools receive safe access to external systems?

Credentials & connections tools manage how an MCP server safely accesses external systems, like databases or APIs, on a user's behalf.
