# Connect a chat platform

> Meet Lobu agents where your team already talks — Slack, Telegram, WhatsApp, Discord, Teams, and Google Chat.

A **chat connector** is a live bot adapter. Connect it, then route conversations to an agent: mention the bot, DM it, or run a slash command. Chat connectors are the surfaces below; each has a setup walkthrough on its own page.


Not a chat connector? See [Data & tools](/connectors/data-tools/) for feeds into memory, or [Agents & clients](/connectors/clients/) for MCP clients.
