Use the AI you trust
Bring Claude, ChatGPT or any other assistant that supports remote MCP connectors. No lock-in, and you can switch the AI service whenever you like. The connector is switched on per organisation, so ask us to enable it for yours.
It works where your team works
The assistant works directly with your Lobster, on the same data your team uses. It is a member of your team, not a bolted-on chatbot with limited functionalities.
You set the limits
The assistant acts as the person who connected it. It sees what they see and can change what they can change, nothing more. API keys can be read-only, and an admin can revoke a connection at any time.
Every action is logged
Each step the assistant takes is logged and attributed to the person it acted for.
