Your AI assistant reads the shopping list and creates tasks and events – with exactly the permissions you allow.
Tell your AI assistant: “Add milk and diapers to the shopping list” — patchio adds the entry straight to your shared list.
A parent-teacher evening comes up in conversation, and by the time the app is open, you've already forgotten it.
The assistant creates tasks with a due date, adds events to the calendar, or ticks things off – with the same plain-language command as in the app.
An outside tool shouldn't automatically be allowed to do everything.
An admin switches the interface on per household, you choose read and/or write separately for shopping, tasks, and calendar — and revoke any connection at any time.
Not every tool is a chat — Home Assistant or your own script needs its own access.
Over the REST interface at patchio.de/api/v1, Home Assistant and your own scripts talk to patchio too, with the same access key — including the plain-language command.
And which assistant does this actually work with?
Works with Claude Desktop, Claude Code and claude.ai: patchio speaks the Model Context Protocol (MCP). In claude.ai you connect as a connector through your patchio account, with no access key, and confirm the household and permissions yourself.
