Use case
Catch up on every chat with one question
After a day offline your phone shows a wall of unread chats. Ask your AI app what you missed and get one answer: who needs a reply, what changed and what can wait.
Free to start. No install. Every send needs your OK.
The problem
Coming back to your phone after a flight, a long meeting or a weekend off means opening chats one by one. Each one takes a minute, and the urgent message is often in the chat you open last.
Notifications do not help much. They show the latest line of each chat, not the question someone asked an hour earlier.
How ConnectChats handles it
Your AI app calls these ConnectChats tools when you ask. The code on each card is the tool it uses.
-
Sees what is unread
Your AI asks for your shared chats, unread first, with the unread count and the last message of each.
list_chats -
Reads only the new part
For each chat that matters, it reads the messages since you last read it, so it does not wade through old history.
read_messages -
Sorts it for you
Busy chats become a few lines each, and your AI tells you which ones are waiting on you.
get_messages_to_summarize -
Queues your replies
Say which ones to answer. Each reply is a draft with an approval link.

Where it works best
The chat apps and AI apps that fit this use case.
Best pairs
Honest limits
- Unread counts follow your linked account. A chat you read on your phone no longer counts as unread.
- Messages imported when you first link WhatsApp count as read, so your first catch-up starts from the moment you linked.
- A tool result holds at most 20,000 characters. After a very busy day your AI works through your chats in several calls.
- Message times reach your AI in UTC. Tell it your time zone so this morning means your morning.
- ConnectChats does not send you a catch-up on its own yet. Scheduled digests are coming; today you ask.
Questions
How does my AI know what I have not read?
ConnectChats keeps the read state of your linked account. When you read a chat on your phone, your AI sees it as read too.
Which chats can my AI see?
Only the chats you share in your ConnectChats dashboard. New chats are shared by default, and you can turn that off for each chat app.
Can it catch me up across several chat apps?
Yes. The free plan links two chat apps, and one question then covers every linked app.
Does it work from my phone?
Yes. Once ConnectChats is added to your AI app, you can ask from that app on any device where it supports connectors.
