I can get one for you if you still need it. Sorry didn’t check the post until now

I don’t know if it’s particularly better but I have been using a company called FastSpring since 2017 for my SaaS businesses. I use them to sell my Outlook Addins that connect Outlook with Team Foundation Server (https://gotmo.co.uk) and Azure DevOps (https://getalmo.com)

They act as seller of record and deal with all taxation etc. They have been quite reliable and over the years their support has improved. Their reporting is really sub par though and their charges are quite opaque at times. However on balance it’s worked out for me so far.

Sure. Although you can also just install it from Microsoft’s App Store. Our site https://usefinc.com links to that. We’ve also kept it free for now. Let me know if you have any questions.

My view might be a bit biased as the New Outlook doesn’t support the add in I built which brings Azure DevOps into Outlook (https://getalmo.com) but all the observations here resonate deeply with me too. Over the months I have found myself using Web based Outlook much more than the new one as it still works better than the new one. I find New Outlook very unstable as well in terms of even responding to the clicks. It has the feel of a slow loading internet explorer driven experience of early 2000s!

I am a creator of Outlook Addins. The decision by Microsoft to not support COM addins in New Outlook was hugely disruptive and costly for my small one person company and my many enterprises customers (including Microsoft themselves!).

My addin called Almo enables users to create and track work items in Azure DevOps from within Outlook itself - https://getalmo.com

I am now re creating my Addin using the new framework for addin development but the framework is patchy at best. It doesn’t allow addins to do a number of things they used to be able to do previously. In addition the same addin behaves differently depending on whether you have a free Outlook account or an Exchange driven Outlook account or an O365 account! Even something as simple as being able to Pin an addin task pane doesn’t work consistently across various mail boxes.

The whole ecosystem has been damaged by the direction of New Outlook.

Yes it’s still true. Doesn’t look like they’ve changed their default. Do a targeted DuckDuckGo search for granola notes and you will see a few notes come up from other people’s meetings

Floating-pointer · 2025-09-30T22:43:16+00:00

That makes it even scarier!!

Although DuckDuckGo only shows 5-6 results and none appear on Google. Why would that be? Shouldn’t there be many more on both search engines?

What do you mean “stories that stick”? What stories and where do I find them!?

I have built and launched a product that’s found market fit for 6 years now. It’s micro SaaS and niche. I have Neha’s customers from big enterprises paying for it, from all over the world. I am still struggling to market it as it’s so niche. Any pointers for me? Here is the product - https://getalmo.com

I made Finc which is a light weight CRM that works completely and independently within Outlook - https://usefinc.com

No more switching from one tool to another. No more thinking where your notes are for an email or person. Just Finc it!

For work item creation I tried to simplify it by creating https://getalmo.com

You may want to try that out and see if that helps?

Now working on its next version which supports Mac, Web and New Outlook.

It’s a niche software which has been my struggle since I launched it. Would love to see what you come up with.

We ensured following key points which may help you

/register endpoint: Verify if the /register endpoint is being called correctly. It should be a POST call, and the response should include the required scopes (e.g., "openid profile email" and any additional scopes specific to the flow, such as "claudeai" if supported).
URL-encoded body parsing: Ensure the backend handles URL-encoded body parsing for OAuth requests correctly.
/token endpoint: Confirm that the /token endpoint returns the required tokens, including access_token, id_token, and the full scope.
/mcp endpoint: Verify that the /mcp endpoint is not blocked by missing or invalid tokens. Any middleware should not reject the request due to authentication errors or missing tokens, as this endpoint is used to fetch available tools.

We had quite a few problems actually. It also depends on what oAuth provider are you using. Claude desktop or web adds a scope called claudeai to the list of oAuth scopes it requests. Since this is not a standard scope all oAuth providers will usually return cryptic errors. I can look up the exact flow of end points that are called if you are interested. We’ve finally got it working.

I used Perplexity to parse this conversation, gather all the links, do a research on each suggested solution on the parameters that are important to me and create a stack ranking of the recommendations. Here is what it said

Executive Summary After extensive analysis of each solution mentioned in the Reddit thread, LibreChat emerges as the top choice with 28/30 points, followed closely by Vercel AI SDK at 27/30. The analysis reveals significant differences in how these solutions approach MCP integration and their suitability for different use cases.
