Assessment: Lindy keeps what it remembers in files the owner can read and edit, and publishes credit prices. Its approval setting applies in shared Slack threads only, so writes asked for by direct message, text or web chat run unasked, which its pricing page does not say. It has no status page, and its changelog stops in October 2025.

- Channels: Slack direct messages and channel threads, iMessage, SMS and voice notes, email, the web app at chat.lindy.ai and a Chrome extension inside Gmail. Microsoft Teams is marked coming soon
- Acts without asking: Reads always. Writes too in web chat, Slack direct messages, iMessage and SMS, where approval settings do not apply. Email drafting saves replies to the drafts folder for the owner to send
- Approval controls: Per integration, one of always allow, require approval, or never write, applied in shared Slack threads. The requester or a workspace owner or admin approves with a button. One setting covers every account under an integration. Saved credentials used from shell commands are not covered
- Accounts: Google or Microsoft mail and calendar, a phone number, Slack, and tools by OAuth or API key. The site says 1,500+ integrations and the docs say 1,000+. All actions of a tool are on once it is connected
- Credentials: Saved API keys are write-only, personal by default, shareable with the workspace, and can be rotated or revoked. Where OAuth tokens are held is not stated. The privacy policy lists Pipedream and WorkOS under integrations and authentication

## Before you call it

1. Treat a request sent by direct message, text or web chat as unguarded. Approval prompts appear in shared Slack threads only.
2. Run a routine as a dry run before turning it on. A dry run reads real data and sends, posts and writes nothing.
3. Turn off unused tools after adding an MCP server. Every supported tool arrives switched on, and a large server adds more than a hundred.
4. Expect a billed seat for anyone who mentions Lindy in Slack. A teammate who joins that way has seven free days first.
5. Connect only hosted MCP servers on public HTTPS with streamable HTTP, the one kind the docs describe.
