Use your Carrell library in ChatGPT and Claude

Updated November 1, 2026

The Carrell connector lets ChatGPT and Claude search and read your Carrell library when you ask them about it: the sermons you recorded, the photos of your notes and sermon slides, and the notes you wrote while reading. It only reads. It can't change or delete anything, and it can't see your highlights, bookmarks or Ask conversations.

Connect it

You need a Carrell account with something in your library.

• Claude. Open Settings › Connectors, find Carrell in the directory and choose Connect. To add it yourself instead, choose Add custom connector and enter https://app.carrell.ai/mcp.
• ChatGPT. Open Plugins, find Carrell and choose Connect. To add it yourself instead, add a custom MCP server with the URL https://app.carrell.ai/mcp and OAuth sign-in.

Either way, a Carrell sign-in page opens. Sign in with the account your library is in and allow access. You can turn the connector off for one conversation in the app's tool menu.

What to ask

• “What did Pastor Lee say about Romans 8 in my sermons?”
• “Summarize last Sunday's sermon from my Carrell library.”
• “Find my notes on forgiveness and turn them into a study outline.”
• “What did I write on the slides from the Ephesians series?”

The assistant finds matching passages, reads the item, and should say which sermon or note it is drawing on. Text that Carrell read from a photo or a recording and you haven't reviewed yet is marked as unreviewed, because it may have reading mistakes.

What it can do

• Search library finds passages in your library by words, by Bible passage, by kind of item, or by preacher or church.
• Read library item reads one item: a note, a window of a sermon transcript from a given moment, or a photographed page.
• List recent items lists your newest items, for questions like “last Sunday's sermon”.

Privacy

What the connector reads from your library is sent to OpenAI or Anthropic as part of your conversation, and their own terms and settings apply to it there. Carrell doesn't keep a copy of what was searched or read. The privacy policy has the details.

Disconnect

Disconnect Carrell in Claude's Settings › Connectors or in ChatGPT's Plugins. That stops any further access. Deleting your Carrell account also ends it.

Help

If the connector can't find something you know is in your library, check that you signed in with the same account, and try the words the item itself would contain. For anything else, write to hello@carrell.ai.
