The Cloud Storage Problem

Your files are in Google Drive. Your AI assistant... isn't.

The current workflow:

1. Remember file is in Drive
2. Open Google Drive
3. Search for file
4. Download it
5. Upload to AI tool
6. Ask your question
7. Delete downloaded file

Seven steps to ask about your own files.

Introducing Google Drive MCP

Connect your Google account once. Import files from Drive directly into Aquin.

The Two Modes

1. Full MCP Access

Turn on Google Drive MCP and Aquin has instant access to all your imported Drive content text files, documents, images, everything you've imported.

Ask anything:

• You: "Summarize my Q4 planning doc"
• Aquin: Finds and reads the imported file
• Aquin: Provides summary

No manual attaching. No re-importing. Just instant access to imported content.

2. Selective Attachment

Manually select specific imported files to attach to chat.

Choose what to share:

• You: Select "Budget_2024.xlsx" from imported files
• You: "Analyze this spreadsheet"
• Aquin: Only accesses that file

Your choice: automatic access to imports or manual control.

Setup (One Time)

1. Open Aquin settings window
2. Click "Connect Google"
3. Authorize access
4. Import files you need
5. Done

Import from Drive. Let AI access when MCP is on. Or manually attach anytime.

Privacy

Your Drive contains sensitive data. Here's how we protect it:

• Manual import - You choose which files to bring in
• No automatic access - Aquin only sees what you import
• Revoke anytime - disconnect in one click
• Delete imports - remove imported content anytime
• See accessed files - in settings window
• Local processing option - use with Ollama or hugging face models for complete privacy

You control:

• Which Google account to connect
• Which files to import
• Disconnect instantly without data loss

Beyond

Google Drive MCP transforms your imported Drive content from a file cabinet into an AI-accessible knowledge base.

Every document you import. Every image. Every note.

Now instantly available to AI, on your terms.

Your files. Your AI. Finally together.
