ActionKit by Paragon

What is ActionKit by Paragon?

ActionKit by Paragon is an integration layer for teams building AI agents, workflow tools and SaaS products. It exposes a catalog of pre-built Tools, which are actions in a third-party system such as creating a HubSpot contact, and Triggers, which are events such as a new Slack mention, through one consistent interface. You can reach them over a REST API or through a hosted MCP server, and each call resolves to the credentials of your own customer, who authorizes their apps through Paragon's embedded Connect Portal using OAuth 2.0 or API keys. Paragon manages authentication, token refresh, retries and rate limits, and it logs every tool call. A universal filter schema and dynamic field reloading cover custom objects and fields. ActionKit is one of three products, with Managed Sync and Workflows, available on every plan. Paragon lists a free start on the Platform plan, with Pro and Enterprise plans quoted through sales, and it can be run in Paragon's cloud or self-hosted.
