interop.io was formed in June 2023 through the merger of Finsemble and Glue42 to create the global powerhouse driving application interoperability in capital markets and beyond. Leveraging FDC3 and workflow automation, interop.io allows clients to create Straight Through Workflows™ and benefit from unparalleled levels of business agility, a more productive workforce and better operational control.

At OSSF, we shared a critical lesson from six months of deploying AI copilots in enterprise environments: you can't just expose FDC3 intents to AI and expect magic.

The counterintuitive finding? Composite intents work better than atomic ones.
Exposing dozens of FDC3 intents (ViewInstrument, GetPortfolio, ViewChart, etc.) creates chaos — the AI picks randomly, skips steps, and delivers unpredictable results. The solution? Design workflow-level capabilities instead, such as "AnalyzeClientPortfolio."

And that's just one of many takeaways around FDC3, MCP and AI that Bob Myers (interop.io SVP Product) and Kalin Kostov (interop.io Lead Engineer) covered at OSSF.

Watch full presentation (and AI & FDC3 demo!) to learn why:

➡️ FDC3-enabled firms already have the foundation for AI — but it requires intentional design


➡️ Rich metadata (detailed descriptions, clear schemas, usage examples) is key to success


➡️ Organizations using this approach are seeing faster deployments and better user experiences


➡️ Mapping FDC3 to MCP isn't automatic. We've tested extensively and have recommendations for navigating the complications.
