Connectors & MCP
Plugging your AI into your calendar, inbox and drive.
Connectors link an AI assistant to apps you already use, like Google Calendar, Gmail, Drive or Notion, so it can read and sometimes act on your real information. MCP (Model Context Protocol) is an open standard that makes these connections work in a common way, a bit like USB for AI.
How it works
- 01You connect an app and approve what the AI is allowed to access.
- 02When you ask a question, the AI uses that connection to fetch what it needs.
- 03It answers with your real information. For actions like sending or booking, it should ask you first.
One charger for everything
Remember the drawer full of different chargers, one for every device? Then USB came along and one plug fit almost everything. MCP is trying to be that for AI. Instead of every AI app needing its own special connection to every other app, there's one common plug. For you, it means more of your apps can talk to your AI, safely and with your permission.
Where you'll use it
What's our week?
Ask about this week's appointments straight from your shared family calendar.
Inbox triage
Summarize unread client emails and draft replies for you to check.
Find that file
Ask for "the daycare contract" and it finds it in your Drive.
Your nap-time experiment
See which connectors your AI app offers (look under Settings, Connectors, Apps or Integrations). Connect one you're comfortable with, like your calendar, then ask:
Look at my calendar for the next 7 days. 1. Give me a simple day-by-day overview. 2. Point out any busy days or clashes. 3. Suggest two short windows where I could fit 30 minutes just for myself. Don't change or add anything in my calendar. Just read it.
