How it connects

Trello has an official connector in Claude's directory. A Claude admin switches it on and each person signs in with their own Trello login, so Claude only sees what they're allowed to see. Helm handles the setup, checks the permissions and trains your team on what to ask.

Looking after your Trello data

Trello boards can include client names and internal notes, so Claude only sees boards the connected user is a member of and Helm limits it to the workspaces your team uses.

Only the access you approve.
Everything stays in your own accounts.
On Claude's business plans, your data isn't used to train AI models.
