Integrations overview

Last updated: June 25, 2026

Highlight works across your existing apps and screens so context flows in automatically — and finished work flows back out to where it belongs.

It's Not Just Your Apps

Most integration tools stop at the app level — they wait for you to tell them when to pull data. Highlight goes further. It captures context from your meetings, from what's happening on your screen right now, and from the work flowing between your team. All of it, automatically.

Where Highlight Builds Context

Highlight is building a complete picture of your work from every signal around you — not just the tools you've explicitly connected.

Your Meetings - Every conversation, decision, and commitment captured. Highlight transcribes and summarizes meetings automatically so nothing is lost after the call ends.

Your Connected Apps - Every tool you add gives Highlight more history, context, and a richer picture of your work — including what happened while you weren't looking. The more you connect, the smarter it gets.

Your Screen  —  Coming soon — Highlight understands what you're working on right now, not just what you've explicitly shared with it — so it can assist without you having to explain the context first.

Your Team —  Coming soon — When a teammate works through a problem, that knowledge becomes part of what Highlight knows for everyone. Shared context means your whole team moves faster.

Connections Add Capability

Connecting a tool gives Highlight more places to act. The more tools you add, the more Highlight can draft, update, create, and send on your behalf — directly in the right place, without you switching tabs.

How connections work

Every integration uses OAuth — an industry-standard authorization method. This means:

  • You never share your password with Highlight.

  • You authorize Highlight directly through the tool's own sign-in page — Google, Slack, Notion, GitHub, etc.

  • You can revoke access at any time, either in Highlight's settings or from within the tool itself.

The flow is the same for every integration: click Connect → a browser window opens → you sign in and click Allow → you're returned to Highlight and the integration is active.

Where to manage your integrations

All connected apps are managed from a single place in Highlight. To get there, open the side panel, click the three dots (⋯) in the upper right, and go to Settings → Integrations.

From the Integrations page you can see which tools are connected, add new connections, and disconnect any app you no longer need.

Integrations FAQ

How is Highlight different from other integration tools?

Most tools require manual triggers — you tell them when to pull data. Highlight operates at the desktop level, which means it detects context proactively. It understands the 'why' behind your work across all apps before you even ask it to draft a response or update a ticket.

Which apps are currently supported?

Today, Highlight offers deep integrations with Google, Slack, Notion, GitHub, Cursor, Linear, and Ashby. New integrations are added every week — submit a request if you don't see a tool you need.

Does Highlight work with proprietary or niche desktop apps?

Yes. Because Highlight can detect information from your screen and system audio, it can provide context for virtually any app running on your Mac or Windows device — even if a formal API integration is still in development.

Is my connected data secure?

Yes. Highlight is SOC 2 Type II certified. All data from your connections is encrypted at rest and in transit. Highlight never trains on your data, and you can disconnect any integration at any time.

What's the difference between connecting an app and Highlight reading my screen?

Connecting an app gives Highlight access to that tool's history and data — past Slack messages, Notion pages, GitHub issues. Screen context is real-time awareness of what you're actively working on right now. The two work together: connected apps provide the history, your screen provides the current moment.
