  • we need to fill templates that customers give us, we’ve already built an agent harness with python-docx. It’s not perfect but it ~works. Does Vespper completely replace that or can our harness be used alongside your MCP?

  • Btw we open sourced a Word add-in project that shows how to build a Word add-in with Vespper MCP: https://github.com/vespperhq/examples/tree/main/word-add-in

  • I've built tools using the agent in https://github.com/eigenpal/docx-editor. I can use my existing AI and don't need to connect to an external service, plus it is open source. Why would I use your solution instead?

  • The people who need this most are not going to want to use an external MCP server. This is a pretty unusual model for a narrowly scoped product offering like this. I was excited until I realized it’s not something I can run locally.

  • Have been doing https://rcarmo.github.io/projects/python-office-mcp-server/ for a year or so now, and have Go and TS libraries that use the same test fixtures. This is a non-trivial thing in terms of test coverage, but I’ll get there… don’t see a paying market for it though.

  • Agree a good one this is needed but there are 4-5 semi functional Word MCP servers including one from the vendor. This one still isn't feature complete. This is going to sound rude, and I don't mean it that way, but how did you get accepted to YC for this? Was this some kind of pivot off your accepted idea and business plan?
