D2C Watch
D2C onboarding is starting to look AI-native
AppCharge is launching a hosted Model Context Protocol server for mobile game DTC onboarding.
The point is not that every D2C workflow suddenly becomes automated. The more interesting signal is where setup work is moving. If developers can inspect APIs, configure integration steps, and validate onboarding from AI-native tools, vendor integration becomes less like a static documentation handoff.
For publishers, that could compress the boring but expensive parts of D2C setup. Faster integration does not solve strategy, trust, or offer design, but it can reduce the friction between deciding to test a web store and getting a real implementation into the hands of players.
