FamRelay
FamRelay relays specific, user-approved facts between AI assistants, so families and small teams can coordinate without forwarding whole conversations or choosing one assistant provider.
One of 152 tools in Chatbots & Assistants
Who it's for
- Families coordinating events, school updates, travel, or home appointments across different assistants.
- Founders, studios, and executive-support teams that need to pass decisions, owners, or deadlines between people’s assistants.
- People who use multiple assistants and want to pass selected details between their own accounts.
Not the right fit if…
- People whose assistant cannot add custom connectors: FamRelay’s described setup requires an assistant that supports them.
- People who need to share passwords, access codes, or card numbers: FamRelay refuses those details.
- Pilot participants who need to relay highly sensitive or clinical caregiving information: the page asks users to keep highly sensitive information out and limits caregiving details to non-clinical information.
How it fits your workflow
Add FamRelay as a custom connector to an assistant that supports connectors, then sign in with Google. Each person connects their own assistant; a user can also connect multiple assistants with the same account.
In the conversation, ask the assistant to share a fact. FamRelay shows the proposed details, recipient, and duration so the user can edit, approve, or decline. The recipient’s assistant presents the item in its own chat and can use it in reminders, plans, and answers.
Users can ask what they have shared, review delivery and read status, and let shares expire or revoke them. Revocation stops future access but cannot undo what recipients have already read or copied.

Key features
- User-approved, item-level sharing
- FamRelay shows the proposed details, recipient, and sharing duration before anything is sent. The user can edit the details, approve the share, or decline it.
- Cross-assistant relay
- FamRelay can send an approved item to another person’s assistant or between assistants connected by the same user, without requiring everyone to use the same assistant.
- Share records and status
- Users can ask what they have shared and see where items went, whether they were delivered or read, and whether they expired or were revoked.
- Expiration and revocation
- Each share has an end date, such as the event’s end, a date the user chooses, or 30 days by default. Users can stop future access sooner.
- Sensitive-detail restrictions
- The page says passwords, access codes, and card numbers are refused outright. It also states that FamRelay does not transmit assistant memory or chat history.
- Connector-based setup
- Users add FamRelay as a custom connector to an assistant that supports connectors, then sign in with Google. The page provides the MCP endpoint https://api.famrelay.ai/mcp.
Works with
- Model Context Protocol (MCP)
- Google account
- Custom-connector-compatible AI assistants
Limitations to know
- Setup requires a Google account and an assistant that accepts custom connectors; assistants without connector support cannot use the described setup.
- The page says passwords, access codes, and card numbers are refused outright.
- During the pilot, users are asked to keep highly sensitive information out; caregiving use is limited to non-clinical details.
- Revoking a share stops future access but cannot make recipients forget information they have read or delete copies they made elsewhere.
- The page says FamRelay is in early access and features may change as the team learns.
Getting started
A Google account and an AI assistant that accepts custom connectors.
- Add FamRelay as a custom connector using the setup guide and the endpoint https://api.famrelay.ai/mcp.
- Sign in with Google to connect the assistant.
- Ask the assistant to share a specific fact, review the proposed details, recipient, and duration, then approve or decline.
Frequently asked questions
Does FamRelay read all my assistant conversations?
No. The page says only the specific item the user approves is sent to FamRelay; conversations and the assistant’s wider memory are not part of the sharing flow.
Do I need a separate app to share?
No. Users share by asking their assistant in the conversation they are already having. The page says there is no app to install.
Will FamRelay work with my assistant?
It works with assistants that can add custom connectors. FamRelay connects through MCP; the page advises users whose assistants cannot add connectors to mention that in the pilot application.
Can I use FamRelay between my own assistants?
Yes. Connect each assistant with the same Google account, then ask one assistant to send a detail to the others. The user approves the share first.
Can I stop sharing something later?
Yes. Revoking a share stops future access and tells connected assistants to remove the item. It cannot erase information someone has already read or a copy they made elsewhere.
Is FamRelay only for families?
No. The page also describes small-team uses, including founders, studios, executive support, and household staff. It can also be used by one person with multiple assistants.
What does FamRelay cost?
Nothing at the moment. The page says pricing has not been set and that users will be told before they are asked to pay if that changes.
Is my data encrypted, and is it used to train AI models?
The page says shared items are encrypted with their own key, locked separately for each chosen person, and are not used to train AI models or sold.
