Connect GroupMe to Claude

• Catch you up

  Ask what you missed and Claude reads your unread GroupMe 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. Claude searches your GroupMe history and quotes the message.

  search_messages

• Draft replies

  Claude 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 GroupMe account and confirms delivery. Auto-send only runs in chats where you switch it on.

   Pick the chats Claude can see

   Every chat is listed in your ConnectChats dashboard. Share all of them or only the ones you choose. Claude never sees the rest.

4. 4

   Ask Claude about your GroupMe

   Open a new conversation in Claude and ask about your chats. Claude calls ConnectChats when it needs your messages.

• GroupMe in ConnectChats

  Groups and direct messages are both supported. GroupMe works with SMS for members without the app. Those members' messages come through like any other. You can stop sharing a group with your AI app at any time from the dashboard. Messages your AI app sends go out from your own account, after you approve them.

• ConnectChats in Claude

  Claude supports remote MCP servers as custom connectors. Add ConnectChats once, sign in with your passkey, and switch it on in any conversation where you want Claude to see your chats. Custom connectors work on every Claude plan, including Free, which allows one custom connector. On Team and Enterprise plans, members cannot add connectors themselves. An owner adds ConnectChats in Organization settings, then each member connects their own account. Add the connector on the web or desktop. It then works in the Claude iPhone and Android apps too. Claude connects from Anthropic's cloud, not from your computer, so nothing needs to stay running on your side.

• You pick the chats

  Claude only sees the GroupMe chats you share. Unshare a chat and it disappears from every AI app at once.

• Drafts by default

  Claude prepares replies. You approve each one before it reaches GroupMe, 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.
