Forest's backend connects to your datasources: your databases, your SaaS tools, your systems of record. Inside workflows, MCP tasks call your external tools (KYC providers, PSPs, communications platforms, case-management systems). Customer data travels to a provider only at the point where its service is called, and the response is logged back to the case. Custom actions reach into other resources across your infrastructure. The Forest MCP Server opens all of that up to your AI agents, with the same scoped permissions and audit coverage your team works under.
