Turn your APIs AI-native
reShapr was born out of a hard truth: enterprises are under immense pressure to expose internal APIs to AI-native applications, but the path there is anything but smooth. Manual builds, fragile generators, and one-off integrations burn precious engineering time while introducing security risks and technical debt.
We built reShapr to change that, with one objective: make enterprise API-to-MCP adoption fast, reliable, and secure.
Our platform instantly transforms your existing APIs (REST, gRPC, GraphQL) into governed, LLM-optimized MCP tools: no rewrite, no vendor lock-in, no compromises. You stay in control, deploy anywhere, and accelerate AI initiatives without rewriting a thing.
Behind reShapr is a seasoned team of experts in APIs, network gateways, and security. We've built large-scale infrastructure, tackled edge cases, and felt the enterprise pain firsthand. Our commitment is open source first: build in the open, ship with transparency, and keep interoperability at the core so teams can adopt MCP without lock-in.
Who reShapr is for
reShapr serves every role that takes an API from idea to governed production. See the full detail in the 1.0.0 release notes.
Developer / Agent builder
Turn an API into an MCP server and start consuming it in minutes.
Import an OpenAPI, GraphQL, or Protobuf/gRPC contract and get working MCP tools instantly. Custom Tools then reshape them into the exact action your agent needs.
The win One named action, one input schema, one output shape, instead of an agent replanning the same multi-step loop every time.
API / Platform engineer
Govern Services, Configuration Plans, Expositions, and integrations.
A Configuration Plan controls routing, timeouts, and which operations are visible. Changes stream live to connected proxies, with no restart.
The win The same Service backs several Expositions, so a partner-facing and an internal endpoint share one governed source of truth.
SRE / Kubernetes operator
Deploy, secure, scale, observe, and troubleshoot the platform.
Seven CRDs reconcile reShapr the GitOps way, a webhook injects the proxy as a sidecar, and four Cosign-signed Helm charts install each component.
The win One less network hop and one less shared gateway to run and scale on its own.
Security architect
Apply authentication and authorization consistently across every MCP server.
Bring your own IdP, accept clients registered with Client ID Metadata Documents, and resolve backend credentials through OAuth profiles or MCP Elicitation instead of hardcoding them.
The win One Configuration Plan enforces identical security policy across every Exposition.
Technology decision-maker
Evaluate functional coverage, deployment models, and limitations.
One Apache-2.0 project covers any API contract under a single MCP layer, deployable with Docker Compose, Kubernetes, and Helm.
The win Instead of N servers with N security reviews, a single auditable risk surface and faster delivery of the next integration.
Not a gateway. Better together.
reShapr transforms and governs your APIs into MCP tools. An MCP or AI gateway can sit in front of it for traffic-layer routing and policy. Use them together, or use reShapr on its own.
- reShapr: API-to-MCP transformation, Context Control, tool governance
- Gateway (optional): traffic routing and policy across MCP servers
- Your backends: unchanged REST, GraphQL, and gRPC services
