AI that works inside your other apps
Connectors, the browser, and your desktop: three ways an assistant can reach the software you already use, and do real work there with you in control.
Apps have a front door for software, called an API. MCP is a universal adapter, so one assistant can plug into many apps.

API: the app's door for software Connection through MCP
In plain English
- A door built for software.Apps like Outlook and Workday have one, so programs can ask for data without clicking around.
- A universal adapter for AI.One standard plug, so an assistant can connect to many apps without custom wiring for each.
- AI using the screen like you do.It looks, points, clicks, and types. Useful where no connector exists.
