# Only the tools each client needs: Best MCP Gateways

**Answer in brief:** One gateway can serve several agents. Each should see only the tools its job needs.


## Tool groups

MCPJungle registers your servers once, and its tool groups let each client see only the tools it should.[1]

## Identity and audit

Obot's server provides MCP and LLM gateways with identity and access control, and correlated audit logs.[2]

## Start from the job

List what each agent does, then build its group from that list. Add a tool when a real task needs it.

## Connected entries

- [Access & policy](/topics/control/): Sign-in, rules per tool and approvals.
- [Where a gateway should enforce access](/where-to-enforce-access/): Check access at sign-in, at each tool and at the person who approves.
- [Checking tokens meant for one server](/tokens-meant-for-one-server/): A token issued for one server shouldn't open another. A gateway can check that on every call.
- [Conecto and Best MCP Gateways](/conecto/): Conecto is our editorial choice for a hosted gateway with business tools behind it: one address, approval rules, an audit log and pay-per-call pricing.

## Questions & answers

### How does Conecto relate to MCP gateways?

Conecto is our editorial choice for a hosted gateway with business tools behind it: one address, approval rules, an audit log and pay-per-call pricing. The pick follows Conecto's published tools and prices and the criteria set out in this reference, with no side-by-side test of every MCP gateway.

### What should I verify first?

List each agent and the tools it called last week, then remove the rest from its group.
