Connect an AI agent to Trace

Use your meetings, knowledge and reminders from the tools you already work in.

Connecting gives an AI tool on your computer access to your Trace account through MCP. You sign in and approve access in your browser once, and can revoke it any time from the app.

What a connected agent can do

It cannot record audio or delete anything.

What to expect

When you connect, your tool opens a browser window where you sign in to Trace and approve access. That takes about a minute.

Revoking access

Open the Trace app, go to Settings → Connected agents and tap Revoke next to the tool. It loses access immediately.
