# Connectors

> Connectors plug the tools you already have into Escouade: your mailboxes, your Drives, your software. The other way round, your Claude or your ChatGPT connects to Escouade through MCP. Meet, Mail, Social and Tools have nothing to connect: they open on your organisation through the Escouade account.

## Mailboxes

A mailbox is connected in Settings › Accounts: Gmail, Outlook, or any IMAP mailbox. Its emails and their attachments enter Escouade's memory, linked to your records, once its ingestion is switched on. See [Ingestion](https://escouade.io/en/docs/escouade/ingestion.md).

| | Free | Essential | Pro | Max |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Gmail or Outlook mailboxes connected | None | 1 | All | All |

A mailbox can be **personal**, connected by a person for themselves, or **the workspace's**: a shared mailbox, connected for the workspace, which the departure of the person who connected it does not stop. An email is read by whoever reads its mailbox. See [Access and roles](https://escouade.io/en/docs/escouade/acces.md#les-boites).

## Google Drive

A Drive connects in two ways:

- **for me**: you read it in your own chat; it never synchronises to the workspace;
- **for the workspace**: it synchronises the chosen folders to the deals' Library and the master context. Several workspace Drives can coexist.

See [The Library](https://escouade.io/en/docs/escouade/bibliotheque.md#les-sources).

## Shared and personal

The connectors window sorts them into two families:

- **Shared**: connected once for the whole company, such as a workspace Drive, electronic signature or supplier invoice software. Who manages them (connecting, configuring, disconnecting, offering them in the chat) is set role by role on their card; by default, administrators.
- **Personal**: which each person connects for themselves, such as their own mailbox or their own Drive.

## The family, with nothing to connect

Meet, Mail, Social, Tools and Prescriptio open on your organisation through the Escouade account. In the settings, "My suite" says what your size gives you of each, with a button to open it. Their data reaches Escouade through the family relay: Meet minutes attach to the participants they know, a Mail campaign creates dated facts on the contacts' records.

## Your assistant, on Escouade

The other way round, Claude, ChatGPT or any MCP client connects to Escouade and to each application of the family, with an address and your sign-in. See [The family's MCP servers](https://escouade.io/en/docs/mcp.md).

## Escouade hub

On an [Escouade hub](https://escouade.io/en/docs/escouade/hub.md) instance, the same connectors connect to your server. Meet, Mail, Social and Tools are taken as an online subscription.
