The Model Context Protocol (MCP) offers a standardized, secure approach to integrate AI applications with SAP ERP systems, reducing complexity and improving data access without the need for costly custom interfaces. However, SAP's new restrictive API policy and licensing model threaten to limit third-party AI tool integration, potentially imposing significant costs on customers who use external AI platforms via MCP servers.

This Wire brief sits within Fusion42's coverage of Enterprise Software and AI Infrastructure.

◆ The Wire takeaway

You face new costs and legal risks using third-party AI with SAP ERP despite the MCP server easing technical integration. Prepare to negotiate licensing or explore alternative platforms immediately to avoid costly audits and restrictions.
