LinkedIn + Manus integration
Connect LinkedIn to Manus
ConnectChats brings your LinkedIn chats into Manus. Ask Manus 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 Manus can do with your LinkedIn
ConnectChats gives Manus a small set of tools. Manus calls them when you ask about your LinkedIn chats, and only for the chats you share.
-
Catch you up
Ask what you missed and Manus 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. Manus searches your LinkedIn history and quotes the message.
search_messages -
Draft replies
Manus 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.

- In Manus, open Settings, then Integrations, then Custom MCP Servers, and click Add Server.

- If LinkedIn signs you out, link it again the same way.
-

Every chat is listed in your ConnectChats dashboard. Share all of them or only the ones you choose. Manus never sees the rest.
-
Ask Manus about your LinkedIn
Open a new conversation in Manus and ask about your chats. Manus calls ConnectChats when it needs your messages.
How LinkedIn and Manus 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 Manus
Manus can add your own MCP servers next to its built-in integrations. Once ConnectChats is added, Manus can pull messages into a task, for example to collect every supplier quote from a group chat into a table. Manus checks that it can reach the server and lists the ConnectChats tools before you use them. Long tasks can call ConnectChats many times. Tool calls are not limited on the ConnectChats free plan. Manus can draft replies as part of a task. Each one waits for your approval in ConnectChats unless the chat has auto-send on.
Your LinkedIn stays under your control
-
You pick the chats
Manus only sees the LinkedIn chats you share. Unshare a chat and it disappears from every AI app at once.
-
Drafts by default
Manus 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 Manus read my LinkedIn messages?
Yes, once you link LinkedIn in ConnectChats and add ConnectChats to Manus. Manus reads only the chats you share, and only when you ask it something that needs them.
Can Manus send LinkedIn messages for me?
Manus 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 Manus 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 Manus 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.
Can Manus reply to messages on its own while it runs a task?
It can prepare replies, but they wait as drafts until you approve them. Turn on auto-send only for chats where you are comfortable with that.
Where are custom MCP servers in Manus?
Under Settings, Integrations, Custom MCP Servers. Manus also lets you add an MCP server by URL from its Connectors page.
