Connect Stripe, GitHub, Airtable and the rest

What each connector unlocks, how credentials are stored and scoped, and the honest limits of what each one can do today.

Last updated 2026-08-30

Connecting one

Settings → Connections → the Connectors card → search for the service → Connect → paste the credential → Save key.

Once a key is stored, the button becomes Replace, and Disconnect removes it. Only workspace admins can set credentials.

Every connector uses a pasted credential. There is no one-click OAuth flow anywhere — including Gmail and Google Drive, which need a Google OAuth client you create yourself and a JSON credential you paste.

What each one unlocks

ConnectorWhat it gives you
StripeReal revenue and MRR on the dashboard, and the CAC guardrail that needs them
Plausible / GAReal traffic in the metrics series instead of guesses
Email (ESP)Subscriber count in the metrics series
GitHubA real repo for the venture; generated site code is pushed to it
SupabaseA database and auth backend without provisioning one yourself
VercelDeployment status next to the venture — read-only
ZernioPosts actually publish, and ad spend syncs back into the numbers
HeyGenAvatar videos for organic posts, from the scripts kitty writes
Gmail / SMTPMail goes out from your own address, so replies come back to you
AirtablePulls a table into metrics and tasks; pushes the weekly brief back
Google DriveExports briefs, board reports and documents into a venture folder
FigmaThe generated site matches the brand you already designed
JotFormEvery submission becomes a tracked lead
ApolloThe engine finds named prospects instead of asking you to
GoDaddy"Go find a domain" becomes a priced shortlist
Zapier / Make / n8n / ClayThe engine fires one of your workflows when something happens

Honest limits worth knowing before you connect

  • Vercel is read-only — deployment status, not a deploy target.
  • GoDaddy checks availability only — it does not buy domains.
  • Gmail is send-only — kitty does not read your inbox.
  • JotForm is the only connector that receives inbound webhooks.

What connectors cost

Reading your own data — a base, a form, a Figma file, a deployment — is plain I/O and is free. Metering your own data would be charging you rent on it.

The single exception is sourcing prospects from Apollo, which burns a vendor's credits and is priced accordingly.

How credentials are stored

Encrypted at rest with AES-256-GCM, used server-side only, never returned to the browser or logged, and never shown again after saving.

A key can be scoped three ways, and the most specific wins: pinned to one venture, shared across the workspace, or personal to you. The status badge tells you which is in play — Venture key in use, Workspace key in use, Your key in use or Not connected.

JotForm's webhook URL

Once JotForm is connected, a Webhook URL panel appears. Choose a venture, copy the URL, and paste it into JotForm.

Treat that URL like a password — anyone holding it can post submissions to that venture. It does not expire; you rotate it by disconnecting the connector and generating a new one. Deliveries are capped at 300 a minute per venture.

Frequently asked

Is there a Connect with Google button?
No. Gmail and Google Drive need a Google OAuth client you create and a JSON credential you paste. There is no one-click flow for any connector.
Do connectors cost Treats?
Reading your own data is free. Sourcing prospects from Apollo is the one priced connector action, because it burns vendor credits.
Can kitty read my Gmail inbox?
No. The Gmail connector is send-only, so replies come back to your address rather than ours.
