Any tab you connect, as a table, ready to ask about.
Always today's numbers
Targets and forecasts, synced from Google Sheets automatically, so answers use today's numbers.
Connect all your tools
Questions like "Is the forecast holding?" use Google Sheets and GA4, Google Ads at once.

Good to know
- Custom connectors work on Claude Free, Pro, Max, Team and Enterprise. Free accounts can add one.
- On Team and Enterprise, an owner adds the connector first under Organization settings → Connectors → Add → Custom → Web. Members then connect their own accounts.
- Remote connectors belong to your Claude account, so the same connection shows up in Claude Desktop and Cowork. Requests come from Anthropic's cloud, not your computer.
