MCP Teams Overview
MCP Teams Overview
In this slide you can see now a full example of how running MCP in Teams. And you might wonder why I'm talking a lot about Teams and business and enterprise setups. The reason being is, even if you're a solo developer and you just want to use MCP for your own sake, like just install some MCP servers in your desktop like in Cloudy, Wind Surf or Curza and use them, it's important that you understand the possible impact you can make with your own MCP servers and can sell them or can integrate them into your company or into your team. They can save a lot of money with it, they can bring AI into their ecosystem and if you are aware about the huge possibilities here, then you are just ahead of time. And that's the reason why I talk about it. And this answers also one of the most questions I get, who in the end is using MCP? Maybe you're one of these guys like a tool or API developer that builds MCP servers for your own or for a team or for the community on GitHub. Other developers can use your MCP servers, can install them and they can build useful applications with it. Like the AI developer installs a PostgreSQL MCP server, they install a browser tools MCP server, whatever and build some chatbot interface for end users and the end users are also using behind the scene MCP servers. So this is a pretty nice diagram of a possible ecosystem, how you can use MCP and also build servers in a team setting. Okay let's move to the next slide. When chatGPD was released, it was a massive breakthrough, not only because of the intelligence but also because it is easily to use. You just have this one chat interface and you can input everything you want in one input field and that makes it really accessible for beginners. And with MCP, we can do the same. So we have kind of our own chatGPD in house. If we're thinking of a team setting in a company, we could just offer the team one chat interface. You can code for example your own chatGPD and offer them one interface and they're just asking about all the things they need. But the problem is or was and if you have about five services like HubSpot, Slack, Notion, I don't know, all the SS services in the company, you need five integrations and until you have finished this integration, this takes a lot of time and money. And with MCP, we can just plug and play the services into our chat. If our chat or chat client supports MCP, the user is asking, hey, what's the today's closed deals? The chat is asking the MCP server, hey, HubSpot give me or calling the tool behind it and give me the latest closed deals can even continue our conversation. That means our chat knows now that we have closed 50 deals and now we can summarize the information and send it to Sarah in Slack. This is another huge advantage. So we can just combine all the responses, form it to a new response like to an email or anything else and send it. We are emailed to our teammates or in Slack or whatever you're using. You can already guess is how powerful this is. Let's move on to the next slide.
