Built for developers and security teams

MCP server developers

Securely expose your external and internal-facing MCP servers to AI agents with OAuth, client registration, user consent, and more.

AI agent developers

Issue short-lived, scoped credentials purpose-built for AI agents to connect with downstream services without worrying about token management or storage.

Security / identity teams

Enforce fine-grained access to your MCP servers, external connections, and backend APIs with complete auditability and identity lifecycle management.

Agentic Identity Hub capabilities

User authentication

Authenticate users in your AI apps

Add frictionless, secure user auth to any business or consumer-facing AI app.
Prompt users to reauthenticate during sensitive actions.
Issue sessions that identify users across AI conversations, agents, and background tasks.
Delegate admin with self-service SSO / SCIM setup, user / role / access key mgmt. and more.
Save developer time using no / low code user journeys.

Sample app

Agentic Identity Management

Get a unified view of agentic identities

Get dedicated identities for each AI agent alongside several attributes such as associated users, tenants, tool-level scopes, etc.
Filter, group, and tag agents based on business needs and logic.
Bring in existing workforce / customer IDs to make authorization decisions.
Monitor every AI agent action, identify potential misconfigurations, revoke access for potentially rogue agents.

MCP Auth

Secure MCP servers with auth and access control

Securely expose MCP servers to MCP clients with OAuth 2.1 and PKCE.
Validate access to MCP servers with user auth and consent management.
Support context-aware MCP client registration through DCR and CIMD with agent risk assessment flows.
Assign granular per-agent and per-tool scopes to MCP clients.
Manage, monitor, and delete MCP clients connected to MCP servers.

Connections

Manage credentials for your AI agents

Issue portable, revocable tokens designed specifically for agents, independent of platform or downstream authentication requirements.
Manage, store, and refresh credentials for AI agents to access third-party or internal services.
Choose from 50+ prebuilt templates or vanilla OAuth and API key implementations.
Leverage presets to connect AI agents to third-party MCP servers.
Request scopes at the user and tenant level for B2C and B2B coverage.

Policies

Govern AI agent access to MCP servers, tools & resources

Define authorization controls for per-agent and per-tool access to MCP servers or enterprise resources.
Create policies that take context from the user, tenant, MCP server, agent, JWT claim, and downstream service into account.
Bring in existing workforce / customer IDs for authorization decisions.
Ensure least privilege access and have AI agents progressively request elevated scopes if needed.

Auditing and Reporting

Get visibility into the entire AI agent identity lifecycle

Log every AI agent’s identity, the delegating user, and the tools / scopes / MCP servers they have access to.
Identify access misconfigurations and instantly revoke access for potentially rogue or shadow agents.
View detailed audit logs in the Descope dashboard or stream them to your SIEM.

Trusted by AI scaleups and innovators

“Descope is a key under-the-hood component of the Cequence AI Gateway. Their flexible, developer-friendly handling of MCP auth has played an important role in helping Cequence AI Gateway customers securely connect their applications, APIs, and data to AI agents.”

Shreyans Mehta, Co-Founder and CTO

“Descope has been super helpful in managing auth for both our MCP server as well as for managing OAuth tokens when Wisdom connects to various other MCP servers. Both flows have been extremely smooth.”

Tanish Lad, Founding Engineer

“Descope has been a great partner to our IAM team. We appreciate the simplicity of their product, the speed of innovation, and their active and responsive support. Whenever we launch a new application or user portal for external stakeholders, Descope is now the default auth provider in our minds.”

Naveen Zutshi, CIO

"We love Descope SSO flows from a CX standpoint. A customer we onboarded just told us it was the fastest implementation ever. It usually takes weeks but we were done in 15 minutes - small talk included!"

David Li, Senior Software Engineer

"We needed a better provider who would actually pay attention to the platform and not just muscle people around. With the flexibility of the social auth, passkeys, everything Descope has—it was an easy drop-in for our authentication flow. ”
