Integrations Overview

BaseLayer works with your AI tools in two ways: capturing conversations in, and recalling knowledge out.

​
Capture: getting conversations in

These integrations watch your AI conversations and send them to your memory.

​
Recall: using knowledge out

These integrations let your AI tools search and use your memory via MCP. Most connections use OAuth — just authorize and go. For a general guide on connecting any MCP client, see MCP Server.
You can capture from any source and recall from any tool. A conversation captured in ChatGPT is searchable from Claude, and vice versa.

​
What is MCP?

MCP (Model Context Protocol) is an open standard that lets AI tools connect to external data sources. BaseLayer uses MCP to give your AI access to your memory. When an AI tool is connected via MCP, it can call BaseLayer tools like ask_question, record_memory, and recent_conversations to search and update your memory. Most AI tools support connecting via OAuth, which is the simplest and most secure method.
