The AI productivity gap: why 80% feel it and only 37% can prove it
McKinsey's own 2026 survey shows an 80/37 split between feeling more productive with AI and proving it in earnings. Here's how to diagnose which side you're on.
The best argument we've shipped came from a sales call, not a keyword tool
A keyword tool can only surface words that already have search volume. Here's the weekly habit we use to find the words before that happens.
Why we didn't fight for the word "control plane"
Every well-funded AI gateway company is using the same three words to describe itself. Here's why Metorial picked a different problem instead.
"Metorial lets us turn customer connector requests into something we can actually ship. We can focus on building the AI analyst experience, while Metorial handles the OAuth, permissions, and MCP infrastructure underneath."
"With Metorial, we've been able to build a single pane of glass across all our data sources, tools, and messaging platforms, and it's worked incredibly well."
Metorial supports secret encryption backed by AWS KMS, including your own KMS keys. You control the encryption of secrets stored in Metorial, with full audit logs.
Metorial VaultMetorial Vault stores the credentials your integrations need securely and uses them without exposing them, with encryption keys managed by Metorial or by you and every operation audited.
ToolsTools are the individual actions inside a provider. Metorial lets you grant or restrict them one at a time. An agent only gets the specific actions it needs.
Magic MCP ServerMetorial automatically creates a Magic MCP server for each person. A virtual MCP endpoint they paste into their agent. They sign in with SSO once and reach every tool they're allowed to use, with no tokens, no secrets, and no config to manage.
Agent ExplorerAgent Explorer lets you connect any integration in Metorial and use a real AI model to test it with real data. You can see how an agent will actually use your tools before you put them in production.
Metorial ExplorerMetorial Explorer lets you connect to any integration, explore its capabilities, and test it directly, with logs and performance in view so you understand how it works.
Policies + Access ControlMetorial gives you granular, role-based access control over users, agents, and admins, with policies across skills, integrations, and agents, built on your existing identity.
1000+ Managed IntegrationsMetorial provides a library of more than 1000 managed integrations that are verified to work with popular AI agents and ready to use without building connections yourself.
