Really nice video by Neto Camarano explaining why there isn’t that much “hype” around MCP for those who had already been working with LangChain’s tools. Tools were already a solved problem.
Now a counterpoint. LangChain’s products are very much for devs. And they should be. Kudos to the iPaaS that managed to implement it in a more no-code way. And we’ve seen this soap opera before in the low-code world; the difference lies in democratization.
MCP made it easier to expose services than “that octopus” from so many screenshots people show here on LinkedIn. It’s one click — the screenshot — instead of having to configure things. In other words, someone has already configured that “bundle” for me.
To me, MCP is just that. A way to democratize the agent experience for more non-technical people. Is it 100% non-technical yet? No, BUT it increases the number of people using it by an order of magnitude.
Neto, congrats on the video. You summed it up really well!
