Sometimes the fastest way to an answer is to ask: which shifts are still vacant this weekend, what happened in last week's incidents, who's free to cover Saturday. Connecting ChatGPT or another AI assistant to Rostery lets you ask in plain English.
How the AI assistant connection works
On the Scale plan and above, an administrator opens Settings, then AI & Automation, switches on the connection and copies Rostery's server address into ChatGPT or another AI assistant as a connector. You then sign in to Rostery and approve the access. Read tools let the assistant see your dashboard, participants and their details, shifts and vacant shifts, service types, staff, incidents and progress notes. Money, payroll, timesheets, invoices and settings are never available.
If an administrator allows writing, the assistant can also create, edit, assign, cancel, restore, delete, copy and bulk-change shifts, through the same scheduler rules as the web app, so clashes and funding checks still apply. Read tools run on a read-only connection limited to your organisation. Access tokens last an hour and refresh tokens 30 days, and revoking the connection in Settings ends it immediately.
