MCP servers that connect your product to Claude, ChatGPT, Cursor, and your own agents - built by a remote dedicated developer.
MCP Integration Services For Australian Teams A Remote Dedicated Developer
A remote dedicated developer who builds your MCP server through your Australian afternoon: tools over your product, Xero, MYOB or Jira, data and logs kept in Sydney or Melbourne, Privacy Act handling in every tool response, and controls an Essential Eight review recognises. Invoiced monthly in AUD.
MCP Server Development From Empiric Infotech LLP
Empiric Infotech LLP provides MCP integration services to Australian software companies and internal teams through a remote dedicated developer who builds your Model Context Protocol server and keeps it current. The server exposes your product's actions and data as tools that Claude, ChatGPT, Microsoft Copilot Studio, Cursor and your own agents can call, alongside the MCP servers that vendors such as Xero and Atlassian already publish. Australian requirements reach the tool layer. Under the Privacy Act, a tool that sends customer data to a model overseas can count as a cross-border disclosure, so tools return only what a task needs and personal details are masked by default. Security reviews from larger Australian customers often follow the Essential Eight, which means multi-factor sign-in, restricted admin access and patching evidence. And many teams want the server, its logs and any stored data in Sydney or Melbourne. Your developer overlaps 2:00 to 5:30 PM AEST and stays online until midnight AEST. You are invoiced monthly in AUD, with no super, payroll tax or Fair Work obligations, and a senior team lead reviews and tests every release.
What our MCP integration services deliver for Australian teams
A production MCP server in your Australian cloud region, built to Australian privacy and security expectations, with a developer behind it every afternoon.
Tools over your product and Australian business systems
MCP tools over your own API, and over Xero, MYOB, Employment Hero, Deputy or Jira where your teams need them, reusing a vendor's official MCP server when one exists instead of rebuilding it.
Privacy Act handling in each tool
Tools return the fields a task needs, personal details are masked unless a role requires them, and any tool that passes data to a model overseas is documented for your privacy policy under the cross-border disclosure principle.
Controls for Essential Eight reviews
Sign-in with multi-factor authentication through your identity provider, restricted admin access to the server, dependencies patched on a schedule and audit logs of every tool call: the controls Essential Eight-based security reviews look for.
Hosting in Sydney or Melbourne
Deployed to AWS ap-southeast-2 or ap-southeast-4, Azure Australia East or Google Cloud Sydney, in your account, with secrets in your vault and logs kept onshore.
Tested in the clients your teams use
Verified in Claude, ChatGPT connectors, Microsoft Copilot Studio, Cursor and VS Code, with admin setup guides and a runbook for adding the next client.
Changes shipped overnight for your morning
Agree the next tools in your afternoon, and they are built, tested and on staging by your next morning, since your developer is online until midnight AEST.
How an Australian MCP engagement starts
An authenticated MCP server in your staging environment inside the first week, worked through your afternoons.
A call after lunch
Thirty minutes on AEST, or late morning for Perth. Tell us which systems an assistant should reach, the AI clients your teams use, and where data must be hosted.
A tool and hosting plan within 24 hours
The first tools and resources, the sign-in design, the Australian hosting region, and an introduction to one developer. The NDA and IP assignment are signed first.
A 7-day risk-free trial
Your developer starts within 48 hours. By day 7 two or three authenticated tools run in your chosen client, and day 7 is a real decision point with a full refund if it is not a fit.
Monthly, invoiced in AUD
One AUD invoice a month, issued without GST and paid by BPAY, direct EFT or wire. No super, payroll tax or Fair Work obligations, and seven days' notice to stop.
MCP integration pricing for Australian teams
Both plans are invoiced in AUD, issued without GST, and include a senior team lead who reviews and tests every release. Monthly is a developer working full time on your MCP server for 160 to 172 hours, billed monthly upfront, with a 7-day risk-free trial. Hourly covers a bounded job, such as moving a server to an Australian region, an Essential Eight review or one new client integration. MCP work is billed hourly above our standard Australian rate because identity and tenant isolation are specialist work; the monthly rate is the same as for any dedicated developer.

The first 90 days of an MCP server with an Australian team
Decisions in your afternoon, builds overnight, results on staging each morning.

Access, region and a first slice
Repository and cloud access, the Australian region set up, sign-in connected, and two or three tools running as the signed-in user in your chosen client. Day 7 is the trial decision.
- Month 1
Production onshore
Core tools live in Sydney or Melbourne with masked personal details, audit logs, rate limits and setup guides for your first teams or customers.
- Month 2
Business systems and more clients
Tools over Xero, MYOB, Jira or your HR systems, vendor MCP servers connected where they exist, and ChatGPT or Copilot Studio tested.
- Month 3
Security review and the agent
A review against the Essential Eight controls your customers ask about and the OWASP risks for LLM applications, performance work, and the agent that uses the tools if you want it.
A dedicated MCP developer vs an Australian AI agency, a contractor marketplace, or an in-house hire
| Empiric Infotech (remote dedicated developer) | Australian AI agency (fixed price) | Contractor marketplace | In-house hire in Australia | |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Hosting | Your Sydney or Melbourne region, your account | Per agency | Varies by contractor | Your infrastructure |
| Privacy Act handling | Minimal tool responses, masking and documented overseas disclosure | To the agreed spec | Depends on the contractor | As your team designs it |
| Essential Eight-aligned controls | MFA sign-in, restricted admin access, patching and audit logs built in | Often extra scope | Rarely included | Yours to build |
| When the spec or a client changes | The same developer updates the server | A new quote | Re-hire or renegotiate | Your team |
| Employment costs | None: no super, payroll tax or Fair Work obligations | None | Check the contractor rules and ABN status | Salary, super, payroll tax, leave |
| Time to start | 48 hours | Weeks: proposal, statement of work, kickoff | Days to weeks | Months of hiring |
| Invoicing | One AUD invoice a month, issued without GST; BPAY, direct EFT or wire | Per agency terms, with GST | Per contractor or platform | Payroll |
The comparison describes how each option usually works, not any one provider.

Why Australian teams use a dedicated developer for MCP
Engineers with production MCP and identity experience are scarce in Sydney and Melbourne, and an agency project ends just as the spec, the AI clients and your customers' security questions start changing. A dedicated developer stays with the server through those changes.
The working day suits this kind of work. You agree priorities in the 2:00 to 5:30 PM AEST overlap, your developer builds and tests until midnight AEST, and the result is on staging when your team starts. Perth teams get 12:00 noon to 10:00 PM AWST.
There is no superannuation, payroll tax or Fair Work process on your side, because the developer is not your employee. You own the code and the infrastructure from day one and can stop with seven days' notice.

Yes. The server, its logs and any stored data run in your own AWS, Azure or Google Cloud account in Sydney or Melbourne, and any tool that sends data to a model hosted overseas is documented so your privacy policy can disclose it.
It shapes what each tool returns and where that data goes. Tools return only the fields a task needs, personal details are masked unless a role requires them, logs record calls without keeping customer content, and overseas disclosure is documented under the Australian Privacy Principles.
Yes, it is built with the controls those reviews look for: multi-factor sign-in through your identity provider, restricted admin access, dependencies patched on a schedule, configuration backups and audit logs of every tool call.
Yes. Where a vendor publishes an official MCP server, as Xero and Atlassian do, we connect and govern it; for MYOB, Employment Hero, Deputy or your own systems, we build permission-scoped tools on their APIs.
