Its Connect product helps developers add connectors to agents and apps, with managed auth, where Pipedream runs OAuth flows and refreshes credentials. Connect Link and an embeddable browser SDK are included, along with prebuilt tools and triggers, an MCP remote server for per-user auth, and a proxy for calling any API endpoint with the credentials of a given user. Conduit, in early access, is a gateway for companies that offers SSO, access policies, per-user permissions, and an audit trail.
