Analytics & Data
What the Parallel connector can do
Parallel turns a plain-language research question into a structured task that crawls the web and returns schema-compliant, cited answers. With Parallel connected to a type.com Space, the agent can kick off a research run, add enrichment fields to existing results, or set up a recurring monitor, and the whole team reads the same findings in the thread.
One connection, many Spaces

FAQ
Questions people ask before connecting Parallel
Can Claude run research tasks with Parallel?
Yes. With a Parallel connection shared to a type.com Space, the agent can start a task, enrich existing results, or query chat completions from a thread, and teammates see the same cited output.
How does type.com authenticate with Parallel?
Parallel uses an API key. An admin adds it once when setting up the connection and chooses which Spaces can use it.
Can Parallel checks run automatically?
Yes. A Parallel monitor or research prompt can become a type.com automation that runs on a schedule and posts new findings to a channel.
Is this the same as a Parallel MCP server?
Not exactly. type.com uses connectors and connections to give selected Spaces access to approved app tools and data. Some connectors use hosted MCP, while others use OAuth, API keys, service accounts, or custom APIs.
