Alternatives to Connected Apps

Connected Apps is a MCP server by pollinations: Read Gmail, search GitHub, update Sheets, and post to Slack through Composio. If it doesn't fit your setup, these 12 MCP servers cover similar ground. They are ordered by how closely they match Connected Apps and by our rank, which weighs adoption, freshness and documentation; money never changes the order. Inbox Zero leads the list (more GitHub stars (12.8K)). 1 of them is published by the company behind the product. 7 offer a remote endpoint, so there is nothing to install locally. Each entry shows data reasons to switch, and you can open a side-by-side comparison with Connected Apps.
