Open Connector Review — Self-Hosted AI Tool
Our review of Open Connector — features, strengths, and trade-offs.
Open Connector is an open-source authentication gateway that bridges AI agents with 1000+ SaaS providers using the universal OAuth 2.0 and OpenID Connect protocols. It exposes a unified auth layer through an SDK, CLI, MCP server, HTTP API, and OpenAPI schema, so agents can connect to Gmail, Notion, Slack, and hundreds of other services without writing provider-specific OAuth flows. Features include runtime tokens, connection management, multi-provider support, and full observability.
