How to connect Gemini to Anchor
Add Anchor to the Gemini app as a custom connector. Paste one URL, sign in with your Anchor account, and mention @Anchor in any chat.
Gemini (gemini.google.com)
Before you start: custom connectors are only available on the Google AI Pro and Google AI Ultra plans, with a personal Google Account. Work and school accounts can't add them yet. For those, use Gemini Enterprise. Google also requires you to be 18 or over and in the US, to use Gemini in English, and to have Keep Activity turned on.
- Open Connected Apps in Gemini on the web and click + Custom.
- Paste the Anchor MCP server URL and click Next:
- Tick the box to accept the risks of connecting a custom app, then click Connect. On the next screen, click Agree and continue.
- A sign-in window opens. Use your Anchor account and click Grant access.
- Keep the name Anchor and click Connect.
- In a new chat, type @Anchor and ask "What is Anchor, and what can I use it for?"
Good to know: Gemini can create and edit apps, tables and text files in Anchor, but it can't send images, videos, audio, PDFs or Excel files. Upload those from the Anchor website, or use another agent such as Claude or Codex. Once Anchor is connected on the web, you can use it in the Gemini mobile app too.
