# The best MCP servers in 2026 — official servers only

Official servers grouped by use case. No community forks, no pay-for-placement, no invented scores — every entry links to a verdict page with the vendor's own evidence.

**How this list is ranked:** only official servers — built by the vendor itself — make the list; that's 212 of the 234 brands tracked. Within each group, entries are ordered by search demand for the server, tie-broken by GitHub stars where the server is open source. Hosted servers have no repo to star, so "—" isn't a mark against them.
