Why the edge:
- Transparency & trust, Unified.to MCP Server +19: SandBase 48 (The editorial half.); Unified.to MCP Server 67 (The editorial half.)

- Reliability, Unified.to MCP Server +10: SandBase 63 (Hosted lines, graded on the HTTP API and the remote MCP server at api.sandbase.ai/v1/mcp, the surfaces an agent calls.); Unified.to MCP Server 73 (Read with the hosted lines.)
- Agent ergonomics, SandBase +10: SandBase 81 (Read on the MCP tools, with the HTTP API where a line covers it.); Unified.to MCP Server 71 (One HubSpot connection lists 81 tools, about 133 KB of definitions without output schemas and 403 KB with them, which scores 5. Eight back for the `tools` and…)
- Security & auth, Unified.to MCP Server +8: SandBase 45 (Standard keys (`sk-` and 64 hex characters) act for one organisation with no user-selectable scopes, can carry an expiry and a spending limit, are shown once an…); Unified.to MCP Server 53 (The workspace API key reaches all connections and the whole account, and it is still the credential for a connection's data tools.)
