Integrate Roam with AI assistants, including OpenClaw, Claude, and ChatGPT

Roam can connect your meetings, transcripts, chat messages, people, and calendar to AI assistants like Claude, ChatGPT, OpenClaw, and other MCP-compatible clients.

Once connected, your assistant can answer questions using the context from your actual Roam.

What You Can Do

Use an AI assistant with Roam to:

  • Summarize meetings and pull details from transcripts
  • Search recent chat messages and group conversations
  • Review decisions, action items, and open questions
  • Prepare morning briefs or weekly digests
  • Ask about project status based on meetings and chats
  • Look up people in your Roam
  • Review upcoming calendar events
  • Send Roam chat messages when the assistant has permission

For example, you could ask:

  • What did we decide about pricing last week?
  • Summarize my meetings from this week and list action items by owner.
  • What has the team said about the launch plan recently?

Connect Roam to Claude and ChatGPT using MCP

Connect Roam to Claude, ChatGPT, and other MCP-compatible clients to instantly chat with the full context of your own Roam meetings and chats. Ask questions, prepare for meetings, synthesize decisions, uncover patterns, and get answers with your Roam knowledge as an intelligence layer behind every conversation.

Connect Roam’s MCP server to your favorite AI assistant to unlock a whole new way of working.

OpenClaw

OpenClaw is an open-source AI agent that can connect to messaging platforms and tools. With Roam, OpenClaw can work in two ways:

  • Use Roam as a data source, so your agent can search meetings, read transcripts, analyze meeting content, browse chat history, and send Roam messages.
  • Use Roam as a chat surface, so people can message your OpenClaw agent directly from Roam chat.

These options can be used together. For example, an OpenClaw agent can live in Roam chat and answer questions using Roam meetings and messages as context.

For setup instructions, see the OpenClaw developer documentation.

Admin Controls and Access

Your Roam admin may control whether AI assistant and API connections are allowed. Some connections may require admin approval before they can access Roam data.
