Discord + Perplexity integration
Connect Discord to Perplexity
ConnectChats brings your Discord 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 Discord
ConnectChats gives Perplexity a small set of tools. Perplexity calls them when you ask about your Discord chats, and only for the chats you share.
-
Catch you up
Ask what you missed and Perplexity reads your unread Discord chats, then gives you the short version: who needs an answer, what was decided, what can wait.
get_messages_to_summarize -
Find any message
The address someone sent last month, the price a client agreed to, the link from a group chat. Perplexity searches your Discord history and quotes the message.
search_messages -
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.
draft_reply -
Send with your OK
When you approve a draft, ConnectChats sends it from your own Discord account and confirms delivery. Auto-send only runs in chats where you switch it on.

How to connect Discord to Perplexity
It takes about two minutes. You do it once, and the same account then works in every AI app you add.
-
Add ConnectChats to Perplexity
- In Perplexity, open Settings, then Connectors, and add a custom remote connector.
- Paste https://api.connectchats.com/mcp as the server URL and choose OAuth sign-in.
- Perplexity opens the ConnectChats sign-in page, where you sign in with your passkey.
-
Link your Discord account
- Open https://connectchats.com/app and choose Link a chat app, then Discord.
- Sign in by scanning a QR code with the Discord app on your phone, the same way you sign in to Discord on a new computer.
- ConnectChats lists your DMs, group DMs and servers.
- Choose which servers and channels to bring in, since large servers can have hundreds of channels.
-
Pick the chats Perplexity can see
Every chat is listed in your ConnectChats dashboard. Share all of them or only the ones you choose. Perplexity never sees the rest.
-
Ask Perplexity about your Discord
Open a new conversation in Perplexity and ask about your chats. Perplexity calls ConnectChats when it needs your messages.
How Discord and Perplexity work together
ConnectChats links to your own Discord account, so your AI app sees the DMs and server channels you choose. It works as you, so it sees what you see, and nothing is added to the servers you are in.
-
Discord in ConnectChats
Direct messages, group DMs and text channels in your servers are supported, including threads. Voice and video calls are not, because there is no text to read. Text chat inside voice channels is. Each linked chat starts with its last 200 messages, then every new message arrives as it is sent. Messages your AI app sends go out from your own Discord 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 Discord stays under your control
-
You pick the chats
Perplexity only sees the Discord 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 Discord, 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.
Questions
Can Perplexity read my Discord messages?
Yes, once you link Discord in ConnectChats and add ConnectChats to Perplexity. Perplexity reads only the chats you share, and only when you ask it something that needs them.
Can Perplexity send Discord messages for me?
Perplexity can draft a reply and send it after you approve it. Messages go out from your own Discord account. You can allow automatic sending for specific chats, and it stays off everywhere else.
Is the Discord to Perplexity integration free?
Yes. The free plan links two chat apps and works in every supported AI app, with no limit on what you ask. No card needed.
Do I need to install anything?
No. You add ConnectChats inside Perplexity and link Discord from your browser. There is no app to download and nothing runs on your computer.
Does it work with other AI apps too?
Yes. The same ConnectChats account works in ChatGPT, Claude, Grok, Manus, Muse and any AI app that supports remote MCP servers. Link Discord once and use it everywhere.
Can it catch me up on busy Discord servers?
Yes, that is one of the main uses. Pick the channels that matter, and your AI app can summarize what happened while you were away and point out mentions of you.
Do server admins see a bot?
No. ConnectChats signs in as you, not as a bot, so nothing is installed in the server.
Can I use ConnectChats with Perplexity today?
Yes, on a paid Perplexity plan. Add a custom remote connector under Settings, Connectors, paste https://api.connectchats.com/mcp and sign in with your passkey.
Would Perplexity search my chats along with the web?
Yes. Once connected, it can search the chats you share and combine them with web answers when you ask.
