LinkedIn + Grok integration
Connect LinkedIn to Grok
ConnectChats brings your LinkedIn chats into Grok. Ask Grok 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 Grok can do with your LinkedIn
ConnectChats gives Grok a small set of tools. Grok calls them when you ask about your LinkedIn chats, and only for the chats you share.
-
Catch you up
Ask what you missed and Grok reads your unread LinkedIn 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. Grok searches your LinkedIn history and quotes the message.
search_messages -
Draft replies
Grok 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 LinkedIn account and confirms delivery. Auto-send only runs in chats where you switch it on.

Ask Grok about your LinkedIn
Open a new conversation in Grok and ask about your chats. Grok calls ConnectChats when it needs your messages.
How LinkedIn and Grok work together
ConnectChats links to your LinkedIn messages using your signed in browser session, since LinkedIn offers no other way to share personal messages with another app. You choose which conversations your AI app can see.
-
LinkedIn in ConnectChats
Your LinkedIn inbox is supported: one to one messages, group conversations and InMail you receive. Posts, comments and connection requests are not included, only messages. Each linked chat starts with its last 200 messages, then every new message arrives as it is sent. Sales Navigator and Recruiter inboxes are separate products and are not included.

ConnectChats in Grok
Grok supports custom connectors that point at a remote MCP server. You add ConnectChats once on grok.com, sign in with your passkey, and Grok can use the chats you share when you ask about them. xAI says connectors are available to all Grok users. Custom connectors are added on grok.com. On Grok Business and Enterprise, a team admin adds the connector in the xAI console first, then each member connects their own account. Grok lists the ConnectChats tools after you connect, so you can see what it is able to call.
Your LinkedIn stays under your control
-
You pick the chats
Grok only sees the LinkedIn chats you share. Unshare a chat and it disappears from every AI app at once.
-
Drafts by default
Grok prepares replies. You approve each one before it reaches LinkedIn, 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 Grok read my LinkedIn messages?
Yes, once you link LinkedIn in ConnectChats and add ConnectChats to Grok. Grok reads only the chats you share, and only when you ask it something that needs them.
Can Grok send LinkedIn messages for me?
Grok can draft a reply and send it after you approve it. Messages go out from your own LinkedIn account. You can allow automatic sending for specific chats, and it stays off everywhere else.
Is the LinkedIn to Grok 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 Grok and link LinkedIn 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 LinkedIn once and use it everywhere.
Does it help me keep up with recruiter messages?
Yes. Your AI app can list the LinkedIn messages that still need an answer and draft polite replies you approve before they are sent.
Why does LinkedIn need browser cookies?
LinkedIn does not offer a sign-in that lets another app read your messages. Your browser session is how ConnectChats connects as you, and signing out of LinkedIn ends it.
Is Grok on X the same as Grok on grok.com?
They use the same Grok account. Add ConnectChats at grok.com/connectors, which is where xAI manages connectors.
Can Grok send messages without asking?
No. Grok can only create drafts, which you approve in ConnectChats, unless you turn on auto-send for a specific chat.
