Why List on Melven?
In the age of AI agents, discoverability matters. Learn why MCP server developers choose Melven to market their tools and reach more users.
The Challenge
You've built an amazing MCP server. Your tools are powerful, your API is clean, and your documentation is thorough. But there's a problem:
How do AI agents and developers discover your server?
Unlike traditional APIs with established marketplaces, the MCP ecosystem is new. There's no "App Store" for MCP servers. AI agents can't search Google to find the right tool. They need structured, machine-readable information about what servers exist and what they can do.
The Solution
Melven provides a discovery platform purpose-built for MCP servers. It's like SEO for the agentic web—making your server findable by both humans and AI.
AI Agent Discovery
AI agents use discovery platforms to find relevant tools. By listing on Melven, your MCP server becomes discoverable by AI systems looking for capabilities you provide.
SEO-Optimized Pages
Every server gets its own dedicated, SEO-optimized page. When developers search for MCP tools, your server can appear in search results.
Custom Branding
Customize how your server appears with your own logo, colors, cover images, and design preferences. Make your listing stand out.
Instant Updates
Update your discovery.xml file and request re-indexing anytime. Changes appear within seconds, keeping your listing always up-to-date.
You Control Your Data
