Bluesky + Perplexity integration
Connect Bluesky to Perplexity
ConnectChats brings your Bluesky chats into Perplexity. Ask Perplexity to catch you up, find any message and draft replies. Nothing gets sent until you approve it.
Free to start. No app to install. Every send needs your OK.
What Perplexity can do with your Bluesky
ConnectChats gives Perplexity a small set of tools. Perplexity calls them when you ask about your Bluesky chats, and only for the chats you share.
-
Catch you up
Ask what you missed and Perplexity reads your unread Bluesky chats, then gives you the short version: who needs an answer, what was decided, what can wait.

Find any message
The address someone sent last month, the price a client agreed to, the link from a group chat. Perplexity searches your Bluesky history and quotes the message.

Draft replies
Perplexity writes the reply in your tone, in the chat's language, with the context of the whole thread. You read it, edit it, and send it.

Send with your OK
When you approve a draft, ConnectChats sends it from your own Bluesky account and confirms delivery. Auto-send only runs in chats where you switch it on.

How Bluesky and Perplexity work together
ConnectChats connects to your Bluesky direct messages with a Bluesky app password that has access to your DMs. Your main password stays private, and your AI app sees only the conversations you choose.
-
Bluesky in ConnectChats
Your direct messages appear in the dashboard, where you choose which conversations your AI app can see. Only direct messages are included. Posts, replies and your feed are not. An app password can be revoked in Bluesky at any time without changing your main password. Messages your AI app sends go out from your own account, after you approve them.

ConnectChats in Perplexity
Perplexity adds custom remote connectors on its paid plans, and ConnectChats works as one. Add it once, sign in with your passkey, and Perplexity can search the chats you share alongside the web. Custom remote connectors in Perplexity need a paid plan. On Enterprise, an admin has to allow members to add them. The same ConnectChats account works in every AI app, so the chats you already linked are available in Perplexity without linking them again. ConnectChats only sees the chats you choose to share, and it asks for your approval before any reply is sent.
Your Bluesky stays under your control
-
You pick the chats
Perplexity only sees the Bluesky chats you share. Unshare a chat and it disappears from every AI app at once.
-
Drafts by default
Perplexity prepares replies. You approve each one before it reaches Bluesky, unless you turn on auto-send for that chat.
-
Stored messages are encrypted
Stored messages are encrypted with a key that only your passkey can unlock. We never train models on your messages.
