Agentic Index
Composio vs Klavis AI (2026)
Composio and Klavis both sell agents access to tools with authentication handled, on different foundations: Composio is a commercial integration platform metered by tool calls, free for 100,000 a month then 29 dollars a month on Scale with a 29 dollar usage credit and metered rates beyond it, with SOC 2 Type II and VPC at enterprise, while Klavis builds on the open source Strata MCP server, free to self host, with a hosted tier adding OAuth and multi tenant auth across six hundred plus tools and paid plans for usage. That verdict is the Agentic Index coverage score, graded from each vendor's own published materials.
Composio is the batteries included commercial route; Klavis is the MCP native route with an open core.
On the Agentic Index agent infrastructure ranking, neither Composio nor Klavis AI clears the bar, which asks for all five production contract capabilities documented in full. Composio does not document testing, debugging and optimization in full; Klavis AI does not document security and identity governance in full, nor observability and auditability. 34 of the 186 vendors in the lane clear it.

Integrations & Tool Calling Ability to connect agents to real systems through native integrations, OAuth-authenticated actions, custom tools, APIs, webhooks, or MCP-compatible tools. |
||
|
ComposioIntegrations & Tool Calling Each session gives an agent tools from more than 1,500 toolkits, scoped to one of the customer's users, and Composio manages the OAuth redirects, token exchange and refresh behind them. The agent can pause in the middle of a chat, send the user a Connect Link and retry the tool once the account is connected, and the connected account persists for later sessions. Tools run on the server with the credential injected, never handed to the model. Sourcedocs.composio.dev/docs/how-composio-worksread 2026-09-22 |
||
|
Klavis AIIntegrations & Tool Calling Hosted MCP servers from Klavis cover more than a hundred applications, from Affinity and Airtable to Zendesk and Zoho Mail. Each one connects per end user through OAuth 2.0 or an API key, so an agent reads and writes in that user's own accounts. Tools are reached through each server's MCP URL, through Strata or through the Call Tool API for plain function calling. Strata is one MCP server that lets the agent discover categories and actions across every connected server before executing one. Sourceklavis.ai/docs/mcp-server/overviewread 2026-09-22 |
||
|
Workflow Orchestration Ability to sequence, branch, retry, route, and combine deterministic workflow nodes with autonomous agent steps. |
||
|
ComposioWorkflow Orchestration The sandbox is a persistent Python environment where the agent writes code that calls tools programmatically, with helpers for tool execution, LLM calls, file uploads, direct API calls and web search, error correction on generated code, and state that persists across calls, and a MULTI_EXECUTE meta tool runs several tool calls together. There is no workflow definition, versioned flow, or sequencing and branching that combine deterministic workflow nodes with autonomous agent steps. Sourcedocs.composio.dev/docs/sandbox/remoteread 2026-09-22 |
||
|
Klavis AIWorkflow Orchestration The product executes the tool calls an agent makes and returns the results. Sequencing, branching and handoff live in the customer's own framework, and Klavis publishes guides for LangChain and LangGraph, LlamaIndex, CrewAI, Agno, Mastra, Google ADK and the major model APIs. Strata's discover, browse and execute tools help the agent pick an action. Klavis has no workflow runtime of its own to sequence, branch, retry or route work, or to combine deterministic workflow nodes with autonomous agent steps.

||
|
Triggers & Channel Coverage How agents wake up and where they work: schedules, webhooks, message events, CRM events, inbox events, chat, email, voice, and collaboration tools. |
||
|
ComposioTriggers & Channel Coverage Triggers react to events in connected apps and deliver them to the customer's webhook as structured payloads. A trigger can be activated for a user, events arrive through an SDK subscription or in production, and trigger instances can be listed, enabled, disabled and deleted. A worked example runs an agent when an email arrives. Sourcedocs.composio.dev/docs/triggersread 2026-09-22 |
||
|
Klavis AITriggers & Channel Coverage Slack and Discord clients come alongside the hosted servers, so a person can put MCP tools to work from those chat channels. Klavis gives no setup guide for either client. It names no schedule, webhook, event subscription or inbound queue that starts work without a person asking. Sourceklavis.ai/faqread 2026-09-22 |
||
| Knowledge & context | ||
|
Knowledge Grounding & RAG Ability to ground agent behavior in company data through document ingestion, retrieval, external knowledge APIs, semantic search, or RAG layers. |
||
|
ComposioKnowledge Grounding & RAG There is no retrieval structure Composio maintains over the customer's own documents. Its search finds the right tools for a task, and its sandbox can extract text from files an agent is working on. Sourcedocs.composio.dev/docs/how-composio-worksread 2026-09-22 |
||
|
Klavis AIKnowledge Grounding & RAG MCP servers for Notion, Google Drive, Confluence and similar tools let an agent query those systems live, but Klavis builds no retrieval layer over the customer's own content. Strata finds tools, not documents, by browsing categories and actions instead of semantic search. Klavis names no ingestion, indexing, retrieval or RAG layer of its own, so there are no retrieved passages or sources to show. Sourceklavis.ai/docs/concepts/strataread 2026-09-22 |
||
|
Memory & State Persistence Ability to persist context across a run, conversation, workflow, user, team, or longer-term memory layer. |
||
|
ComposioMemory & State Persistence A Composio session scopes execution state for the run, covering logs, tool memory, MCP state and sandbox files, with sandbox variables and runtime state persisting across calls and cleared after roughly 12 hours of inactivity, and sessions can be reused, updated and deleted. The scope (the session and its user) and the lifetime are stated. This is state carried through one task, and there is no memory layer the agent draws on across runs. Sourcedocs.composio.dev/docs/security/data-retentionread 2026-09-22 |
||
|
Klavis AIMemory & State Persistence Each end user's credentials and integration status are stored so tools act without asking for consent again. A sandbox holds application state for one training or evaluation run. Klavis names no memory layer that keeps an agent's context across runs. Its Mem0 server connects an agent to another vendor's memory product. Sourceklavis.ai/docs/api-reference/user/get-user-integrationsread 2026-09-22 |
||
| Control & trust | ||
|
Human Oversight & Guardrails Approval steps, consent checkpoints, escalation rules, structured guardrails, policy constraints, and pause/resume controls. |
||
|
ComposioHuman Oversight & Guardrails The customer limits what an agent may do. It chooses which toolkits, tools and tags a session exposes, project API keys keep session management and tool execution as separate permissions with an IP allowlist for each key, the scopes on each connected account limit each user's reach, and the agent pauses for the user to connect an account before a tool runs. There is no step where a person reviews, approves or validates an agent action before it commits. Sourcedocs.composio.dev/docs/security/overviewread 2026-09-22 |
||
|
Klavis AIHuman Oversight & Guardrails Each end user authorizes an integration through OAuth consent before its tools act, and a server connection can be set read only through the API. Klavis Guardrails sits as a proxy between MCP clients and servers. It detects tool poisoning and prompt injection, enforces least privilege access and checks tool invocations against allowlists. Klavis names no approval step a person acts on before an action commits, whether at a node, workflow or policy layer. Sourceklavis.ai/docs/enterprise-security/klavis-securityread 2026-09-22 |
||
|
Security, Identity & Governance RBAC, SSO, auditability, encryption, least-privilege tool access, compliance posture, and data handling policy. |
||
|
ComposioSecurity, Identity & Governance SOC 2 Type II compliance is stated, with the report and sub processor list in the Trust Center at trust.composio.dev. Access controls are specific, with organization and project isolation, scoped project API keys that keep session management apart from tool execution with an IP allowlist for each key, MFA an organization admin can enforce, credentials encrypted at rest with AES-256-GCM and redacted by default in API responses, and signed webhook deliveries. Enterprise adds SAML or OIDC SSO with SCIM provisioning and customer managed keys. Sourcedocs.composio.dev/docs/security/overviewread 2026-09-22 |
||
|
Klavis AISecurity, Identity & Governance The API enforces HTTPS with API key authentication. Each end user's credentials are scoped per integration and returned only to the key owner that controls the instance, and customers can run OAuth through their own white label OAuth apps. Connections can be set read only, and Klavis Guardrails enforces least privilege tool access. No attestation or certification is published. On security, Klavis points only to its built in OAuth, and it publishes terms, privacy and cookie policies but no trust center. Klavis names no SSO, roles or audit trail.

|
Observability & Auditability Traces, logs, execution histories, metrics, audit events, and debugging detail for production agent behavior. |
||
|
ComposioObservability & Auditability Every tool execution and trigger event is logged with the toolkit and action, status, connection and auth-config IDs, the supplied user ID, timing and source, and by default the request arguments and response data, kept for up to one year. A Logs API and both SDKs offer search filtered by user, tool and status, cursor pagination and retrieval of single records, and Composio explains how to pull those records into a SIEM or observability platform. Sourcedocs.composio.dev/docs/poc-to-prod/stream-logs-to-a-siemread 2026-09-22 |
||
|
Klavis AIObservability & Auditability The API returns server instances, tools, users and authentication status, and users check authentication in the dashboard. Klavis names no log, trace, execution history or audit event of the tool calls an agent makes through it, and no export to a SIEM. Guardrails' real time threat detection acts on calls as they happen, and Klavis does not say whether it keeps a record the customer can inspect.

Deployment & Data Residency Deployment modes and options, including SaaS, dedicated cloud, VPC, on-prem, hybrid, local runtime, and self-hosting. |
||
|
ComposioDeployment & Data Residency Customers choose among four deployment options, each with its own credential boundary. Besides Composio Cloud there is a private VPC deployment inside the customer's network boundary, a self hosted deployment in the customer's environment with Helm support, and a deployment with customer managed keys, where a proxy in the customer's cloud holds credential plaintext under keys in its own KMS (AWS KMS, Google Cloud KMS or HashiCorp Vault Transit).

Klavis AIDeployment & Data Residency Hosted servers run on Klavis's infrastructure with a stated 99.9% uptime SLA. There are two production servers, api.klavis.ai for the US and api.eu.klavis.ai for the EU. For on premises or custom deployments, every MCP server ships as a Docker image to run in the customer's own infrastructure, and Strata is open source. Customers can pick the US or EU region, or run the servers in their own environment. Sourceklavis.ai/docs/concepts/mcpread 2026-09-22 |

Prebuilt Agents, Templates & Packs Ready-made workflows, packaged employees, templates, blueprints, industry solutions, and role-specific agents that reduce time-to-value. |
||
|
ComposioPrebuilt Agents, Templates & Packs There is no agent or workflow a customer adopts whole. Composio ships toolkits and meta tools that let an agent find and run actions, plus examples showing how to build applications, but a tool catalog is a set of integrations, not ready made workflows, templates or agents for particular roles.

Klavis AIPrebuilt Agents, Templates & Packs The catalog holds MCP servers and tools. They give an agent actions to take and do no work on their own when selected. The framework guides build example agents as tutorial code. Klavis names no ready made workflow, template or role specific agent of its own for a customer to adopt.

| Platform extensibility | ||
|
Model Flexibility & Routing Ability to work across multiple foundation models, route tasks to different models, or let buyers bring their own providers and keys. |
||
|
ComposioModel Flexibility & Routing The agent and its model stay entirely the customer's. Composio never proxies the customer's LLM or runs an agent on its behalf, and its provider adapters serve tools to whatever framework and model the customer runs, so the model is the customer's choice throughout. Sourcedocs.composio.dev/docs/sandbox/remoteread 2026-09-22 |
||
|
Klavis AIModel Flexibility & Routing Tools are served to whatever model the customer runs. The List Tools API returns a server's tools in several model formats, and integration guides cover OpenAI, Anthropic's Claude, Gemini, Mistral, Cohere, Together AI and Fireworks AI, each using the customer's own provider key. Klavis names no model of its own, so the model, the provider and the key are the customer's throughout. Sourceklavis.ai/docs/ai-platform-integration/overviewread 2026-09-22 |

APIs, SDKs & MCP Extensibility Composability layer: stable APIs, SDKs, MCP tool consumption/serving, custom tools, and integration into internal systems. |
||
|
ComposioAPIs, SDKs & MCP Extensibility Developers get Python and TypeScript SDKs, a CLI, a current REST API (v3.1) with a published reference, provider adapters for the major agent frameworks, sessions exposed over MCP, single-toolkit MCP servers and an agent skill for wiring Composio into a coding agent.

Klavis AIAPIs, SDKs & MCP Extensibility Outside callers reach Klavis through a REST API at api.klavis.ai with a published OpenAPI specification. Python and TypeScript SDKs cover servers, Strata, users, OAuth, white labeling and sandboxes. Klavis serves MCP as an addressed service, with each hosted server and each Strata instance at its own URL. The servers and Strata are open source for self hosting.

Testing, Debugging & Optimization Testing, debugging, scoring, retries, fallbacks, quality gates, and optimization loops for improving agent workflows before and after deployment. |
||
|
ComposioTesting, Debugging & Optimization There is no evaluation harness, scored test cases, quality gate or optimization loop after deployment for the customer's agent. Composio's guidance covers building, authenticating and running tools, with advice on production readiness and rate limits, but no gate or debugging path for agent behavior. Sourcedocs.composio.dev/llms.txtread 2026-09-22 |
||
|
Klavis AITesting, Debugging & Optimization Isolated sandboxes of real applications let the customer test and train its agent. A Klavis Sandbox is loaded with a deterministic world state, and the agent works against it through MCP. The full state can be exported to compare against ground truth, and the sandbox resets for the next run. The Universe API acquires benchmark task environments, and its verify endpoint runs the task's check and returns whether the task passed, with the failure reason. Sandboxes can also be configured for the MCP-Atlas, Toolathlon and MCP-Mark benchmarks. Sourceklavis.ai/docs/api-reference/universe/verify-taskread 2026-09-22 |

Browser & Computer Use Browser, desktop, or remote/local computer control for workflows that cannot be handled through stable APIs alone. |
||
|
ComposioBrowser & Computer Use Composio drives no browser, desktop or remote computer session for an agent. It acts through authenticated APIs, and its sandbox runs code, which is code execution, not computer use. It has no headless fetch or browser engine of its own.

Klavis AIBrowser & Computer Use The Local Sandbox API starts a virtual machine hosting interconnected MCP servers, among them Playwright for a browser plus a terminal and Desktop Commander for the machine. It serves filesystem, terminal, browser and document workflows during agent training and evaluation. Klavis restricts it to use outside production and says nothing more about driving a browser through the hosted Playwright server. The hosted MCP servers and Strata work through application APIs, not interfaces. Sourceklavis.ai/docs/api-reference/local-sandbox/acquireread 2026-09-22 |
