  • What an integration can do
    Empire integrations have two separate jobs. Read and Search Empire can look at information in a connected account when you ask it to. For example: - find several meeting summaries or transcripts in Fathom; - search planning information in Notion; - find and read a file in Google Drive. Reading does **not** happen silently in every reply. In a chat, you ask for a source with the **@** button or name it in your message. Save Empire can create a new page or document wFew readers

  • Privacy and Permissions
    Every connection belongs to the authenticated Empire member who created it. Provider tokens are stored in Empire’s encrypted server-side vault. They are not returned to the browser. Empire uses fixed, approved provider addresses and a limited list of read tools. Chat reads require an explicit connected-source request. Notion and Google Drive writes happen only after a member presses a save action and chooses a destination. Connected-source material is treated as outside evidence, notFew readers

    Does Empire continuously sync all of my connected accounts? No. Empire reads a source when it is explicitly requested in chat. The provider itself controls when its source data becomes available. Does connecting Notion or Drive add everything to Empire’s memory? No. Connected-source results are used as evidence for the current task and follow-ups. They are not automatically turned into durable memory facts. Can Empire edit an existing Notion page or Google Doc? The cuFew readers
