Use in ChatGPT & Claude
Manage your connection & privacy
You stay in control of what your assistants can see and do — and you can cut off access at any time.
Connecting Aether to Claude or ChatGPT is designed to be safe by default: you sign in instead of pasting keys, each connection is locked to a single workspace, and you can review or revoke access whenever you want. Here's exactly how it works.
Each connection is scoped to one workspace
When you connect an assistant, you choose one workspace for it to use, and the connection is scoped to that workspace alone. The assistant can search and update the knowledge base in that workspace — and nothing else.
If you keep separate workspaces — say, one for work and one for personal projects — connecting one of them never exposes the other. Aether never gives the assistant data from your other workspaces.
Want a different workspace?
You can connect more than one workspace by adding the connector again and choosing a different workspace during sign-in. Each one is a separate, independently scoped connection.
You sign in — you never paste keys
Connectors authenticate with OAuth 2.1. Instead of copying an API key into the chat, you sign in to Aether through a secure browser flow and approve access. This means:
- Your credentials are entered on Aether's own sign-in page, not handed to the assistant.
- Access is granted by approval, and it can be withdrawn by you at any time.
- There's no long-lived key floating around in a chat transcript.
When you approve, you're granting the assistant read and write access to the one workspace you chose — enough to search your knowledge base and save new documents to it.
Review and revoke connected apps
You can see every app and assistant connected to your Aether account, and remove any of them, from your account settings:
- Go to platform.aetherdb.ai.
- Open Settings.
- Go to Connected apps.
- Find the connection you want to remove and revoke it.
Revoking cuts off access promptly — the assistant can no longer search or update your knowledge base through that connection. If you want to reconnect later, just add the connector again and approve access.
Revoke if you're unsure
If you ever stop using an assistant, or you're not sure why a connection exists, revoke it. Reconnecting takes under a minute, so there's no downside to removing access you don't need.
What stays private
- Other workspaces. A connection only ever touches the single workspace you selected.
- Your sign-in. You authenticate on Aether's site; the assistant only receives scoped, revocable access.
- Your data. Your documents stay in your Aether knowledge base. The assistant reads the passages it needs to answer your questions, and writes only what you ask it to save.
