At the Interrupt Conference, LangChain unveiled a new agent platform that allows developers to build and share AI agents. The platform leverages Arcade.dev's support for Model Context Protocol (MCP) to enable agents to perform actions on behalf of users across hundreds of services.

Why This Matters:

Complete Agent Ecosystem: Developers can now build, share, and deploy AI agents through an intuitive platform with flexible hosting options
Powerful Action Capabilities: Thanks to Arcade.dev, agents can securely interact with hundreds of services including Google, Slack, Stripe, and Salesforce
Open Standards Support: Full compatibility with MCP ensures interoperability with any MCP server that supports HTTPS, creating an extensible foundation for agent development

How It Works:

The LangChain agent platform provides a versatile environment with streamlined agent creation and management through a new UI. Developers can choose between LangGraph cloud hosting or local development using LangGraph Studio.

By leveraging Arcade.dev's extensive library of integrations and first-class MCP support, the platform enables agents to securely interact with hundreds of external services while maintaining proper permissions.

Enterprise MCP Guide For Clinical Research Organizations (CROs): Use Cases, Best Practices, and Trends

Clinical Research Organizations face a critical infrastructure challenge: connecting AI systems to clinical trial data, regulatory platforms, and research databases without building custom integrations for every single connection. Model Context Protocol (MCP), introduced by Anthropic in late 2024, provides the standardized framework CROs need—but only when paired with an MCP runtime and production-grade multi-user authorization platform like Arcade.dev that handles the complex token and secret m

Enterprise MCP Guide For Medical Devices: Use Cases, Best Practices, and Trends

Medical device manufacturers face a critical challenge: connecting AI agents to regulated systems without breaking HIPAA, FDA, or GxP compliance. Model Context Protocol (MCP) offers a standardized solution—but only when implemented with enterprise-grade security and multi-user authorization. Arcade's MCP runtime provides the MCP-compatible infrastructure that enables medical device companies to deploy AI agents with production-grade multi-user authorization, token and secret management, and the

Enterprise MCP Guide For Biotech: Use Cases, Best Practices, and Trends

Your scientists spend significant time searching PubMed, patent databases, and internal documentation manually. Your AI agents can't access proprietary compound data. Every new AI integration requires weeks of custom development. Model Context Protocol (MCP) solves all three challenges by giving AI agents secure, governed access to the specialized data sources biotech R&D relies on—from literature databases to LIMS systems—through one standardized protocol instead of dozens of fragile custom con
