What Membrane does

Membrane is a private B2B software company founded in 2021 and headquartered in Middletown, USA, that provides agentic integration infrastructure enabling self-integrating software. The platform allows developers, SaaS product teams, and AI agent builders to connect any software product to any external application through a unified data model, eliminating the need to hand-build and maintain individual API connectors. The company claims a catalog of 100,000+ pre-built, production-tested integrations (Membrane Universe) and supports any agent framework, including ChatGPT, Claude, OpenClaw, and custom agents, via native Model Context Protocol (MCP) integration.

The product portfolio centers on three pillars announced in November 2025: Membrane Agent (AI agent tooling for tool discovery and action execution), Membrane Engine (core integration engine handling authentication, API calls, and credential management), and Membrane Packages (pre-built connector packages). Supporting modules include Membrane Connect, Act, React, Agents, Console, CLI, and SDK, plus the Membrane Universe integration catalog. Technical differentiators include automatic code generation of API integrations, unified data models, automated OAuth token refresh with locking, and auto-reconnection with exponential backoff. The platform meets SOC 2 Type II and GDPR compliance standards and can be deployed via multi-tenant cloud or self-hosted on AWS, GCP, or Azure. AWS and MongoDB Atlas are listed as core infrastructure subprocessors.

Membrane operates a hybrid product-led growth and enterprise sales motion. Developers self-serve via a freemium tier through API, CLI, SDK, and MCP, while larger customers access enterprise contracts with self-hosting, custom rate limits, and per-tenant configurations on annual billing. The disclosed customer base spans enterprise names such as PandaDoc, Bridgestone, Constant Contact, Dialpad, and Storyblok, alongside mid-market and startup accounts including Sequence, RemotePass, Sembly AI, Glyphic, and Hireology. The company has raised approximately $5M across two early-stage rounds: a $1.5M pre-seed led by Cortical Ventures in April 2022 and a $3.5M seed led by Crew Capital in November 2023.
