Claude Desktop connects directly to inou via OAuth — no tokens to copy, no extensions to install.

1

Install Claude Desktop

Download and install from claude.ai/download

2

Add Inou Connector

In Claude Desktop:

  1. Go to Settings → Connectors
  2. Click Add custom connector
  3. Fill in the fields:
Name Inou Health
Remote MCP server URL https://inou.com/mcp

Click Add, then Connect.

3

Sign In

Your browser will open to sign in to inou. After signing in, click Open Claude to complete the connection.

4

Allow Tools

To avoid being asked 11 times for permission:

  1. In Settings → Connectors, find Inou Health
  2. Click Configure (gear icon)
  3. Under Read-only tools, select Always allow

This grants Claude permission to read your health data without asking each time.

5

Add Custom Instructions (Recommended)

To automatically load your family's health data context in every conversation:

  1. In Claude Desktop, go to Settings → Custom Instructions
  2. In the text area, add:
At the start of health-related conversations, use the family_health_context tracker from the Inou Health connector to understand what health data is available.

This tells Claude to check what health data is available for your family members at the beginning of each conversation, without filling up the context window with actual medical data.

6

Test

Open Claude Desktop and try:

List my available dossiers.

You should see your dossier(s). You're all set!

Grok can access your health data through our API using HTTP requests. No installation needed.

What Grok can do

Once connected, ask Grok to:

  • List all your imaging studies, genome data, and lab results
  • Show series within a specific study
  • Fetch and analyze individual slices
  • Compare images across different sequences (T1, T2, FLAIR)
  • Navigate to specific anatomical regions
  • Query genome variants by gene, category, or rsid
  • Review medication responses and health risks
  • Track lab values over time

See the full API documentation for all available endpoints.

Not recommended for medical imaging due to elevated hallucination risk in our testing.

✗

Why not ChatGPT?

Medical imaging requires absolute accuracy. In our testing, ChatGPT fabricated information even when correct data was clearly provided. We cannot recommend it for analyzing health data where errors have real consequences.

Recommended alternatives

Use Claude Desktop for the best experience with native tool access, or Grok for web-based access with no installation.

Other AI assistants can access your data through our web API, though capabilities vary.

⚠

Gemini

Gemini's web browsing is currently restricted and may not be able to fetch inou.com URLs directly. Workarounds:

  • Copy API responses manually and paste them into Gemini
  • Use Google AI Studio with function calling
  • Consider using Claude Desktop or Grok instead
