What’s New
1. MCP Connectors (beta)
Le Chat now supports over 20 secure connectors across categories like:
- Data: Snowflake, Databricks, Pinecone, Prisma
- Productivity: Notion, Box, Asana, Monday.com
- Development: GitHub, Jira, Confluence, Sentry, Cloudflare
- Automation: Zapier, Brevo
- Commerce: Stripe, PayPal, Plaid, Square
- Custom: Add your own MCP endpoints for internal tools
These connectors allow users to search, summarize, and act directly within chats — turning Le Chat into a unified interface for enterprise workflows.
Admins can control access, enforce permissions, and deploy Le Chat on-premises, in private cloud, or via Mistral Cloud.
2. Memories (beta)
Le Chat now supports contextual memory, enabling:
- Persistent recall of relevant facts, decisions, and preferences
- Personalized responses based on prior interactions
- Full control over what’s stored, edited, or deleted
- Fast import of memory data from ChatGPT
Mistral emphasizes privacy-first memory handling, avoiding sensitive or ephemeral content and allowing granular user control.

This release positions Le Chat as a serious contender in enterprise AI tooling — not just for chat-based assistance, but as a workflow orchestrator across critical systems. The combination of MCP extensibility and contextual memory enables:
- Faster decision-making
- Reduced tool-switching
- Richer, more relevant responses
- Customizable deployments for regulated environments
