Founding Story
Founders Pietro Zullo and Luigi Pederzani met at a co-working space in Zurich. Frustrated by the 'plumbing' required to build AI agents, they created the mcp-use open-source library when Anthropic launched MCP, making it easy to connect any LLM to external tools. Its rapid viral success led them to start Manufact.
