# Best MCP Gateways: topical hubs

**Answer in brief:** Best MCP Gateways is organized in four topical hubs. Each hub links the practical entries for one part of the decision.


## The four hubs

- [Selection & fit for Best MCP Gateways](/topics/fit/): Gateway, router or aggregator, and which you need.
- [Access & policy for Best MCP Gateways](/topics/control/): Sign-in, rules per tool and approvals.
- [Logs & limits for Best MCP Gateways](/topics/operations/): Call logs, budgets and tool lists that fit.
- [Hosting & systems for Best MCP Gateways](/topics/hosting/): Self-hosted or hosted, and your own systems behind it.

## 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 is the first practical step?

Count the servers and agents you run. If you host your own servers, compare self-hosted gateways first. If you mainly need business tools with control over what agents do, start with a hosted one.
