Artificial intelligence has moved far beyond simple chatbots. Businesses now need AI that can reach into their actual systems, and MCP is how that connection gets standardised.
Why this matters now
This piece sits in Kirshi's AI & Automation series, published on August 14, 2026. It looks at the practical engineering and commercial decisions behind the headline — what actually changes for a team building or buying in this space, and what tends to go wrong when the decision is made on enthusiasm rather than evidence.
The Kirshi view
We build AI, IoT and custom software for enterprises and startups across twelve countries, and our position on most of these topics is shaped by what survived contact with production rather than what demonstrated well. Where we think a technology is being oversold, we say so — and where it genuinely changes the economics of a problem, we say that too.
