Hosting, testing and analytics for MCP servers and ChatGPT apps
Alpic is a cloud platform for building, deploying and monitoring MCP servers and ChatGPT apps. MCP (Model Context Protocol) is the standard that lets AI assistants like ChatGPT and Claude call your tools and data. Alpic hosts those servers for you, gives you a live HTTPS endpoint, and tracks how AI clients use your tools. It also maintains Skybridge, an open-source TypeScript framework for building ChatGPT and MCP apps with interactive widgets. This is a developer tool. You need to write or generate an MCP server in TypeScript or Python, though starter templates help. ## Key features - **Git-based deploys.** Connect a GitHub repo or use the Alpic CLI, and Alpic builds and deploys your MCP server with a live HTTPS endpoint. Logs and Git-native CI/CD are included on every plan, including the free one, so each push can ship a new version. - **Skybridge framework.** An open-source TypeScript framework for ChatGPT and MCP Apps with React hooks, widget state management, type safety and hot reload through Vite. There are also TypeScript and Python MCP templates and a ChatGPT Apps starter kit. - **Testing and auditing.** You can test tools and widgets in simulated ChatGPT and Claude environments and share them with early users. Alpic Beacon audits tool quality, widget rendering and app behavior. - **MCP analytics.** Monitoring covers which MCP clients connect, sessions, tool calls and user intent. Paid plans add user insights and session replay, and Pro includes a helper for submitting your app to AI platforms. If you would rather not build it yourself, Alpic Studio is a managed service where the Alpic team designs, builds and submits the app, and you own the IP. ## Best for Alpic suits developers, technical founders and agencies building ChatGPT apps or MCP servers for clients who want hosting and analytics without managing their own infrastructure. It is useful if you want to put a product inside ChatGPT or Claude and see how people use it. Agencies can also hand the build to Alpic Studio. It is not for no-code builders who cannot work with TypeScript or Python code, and if you only need a local MCP server for your own use, you do not need hosting at all. ## Pricing summary Alpic has a free plan with 10,000 requests per month, one user, one project and 7 days of analytics. Pro costs $50 per month for 200,000 requests, three users, two projects, custom domains and 30 days of analytics, with extra requests at $150 per million. Enterprise is custom priced and adds options like static IPs, bring your own cloud and longer session replay. ## Quick verdict If you are building an MCP server or ChatGPT app, Alpic is worth trying, since the free plan covers testing and small launches and the deploy flow is quick. Its MCP specific analytics and testing are the main reasons to choose it over generic hosting. The catch is that you still need to write code, and the platform only matters if AI assistants are a real distribution channel for your product.
