RationalGrid for AI assistants

One question. More directions to think.

Start in your AI assistant and build an exploration you can return to. RationalGrid lets your assistant read ideas, examine a passage and grow useful branches in a private grid.

Room to explore

Keep the thinking connected

  • Follow the interesting idea

    Start with a question or return to an existing grid. Read the connected ideas and choose where to go next.

  • Look closely at a passage

    Ask for an explanation, uncover an assumption or check the evidence behind a specific claim.

  • Choose a learning path

    Generate a plan with suggested thinking tools and follow-up questions, then explore the directions that matter to you.

  • Connect what you find

    Bring useful branches together when it helps. Keep open questions and sources alongside the conclusions.

Getting started

Connect in three steps

You need a free RationalGrid account and an assistant that supports remote MCP servers with OAuth sign-in. Availability depends on your assistant and its plan.

  1. In your assistant's connections or integrations settings, add a custom remote MCP server.

  2. If asked for a transport, choose Streamable HTTP. Use OAuth sign-in; you do not need a RationalGrid API key.

  3. Follow the sign-in prompt to RationalGrid. Check the app name and permissions, then choose Connect. Return to your assistant to start.

A place to begin

Try a question that opens up

Use RationalGrid to explore how cities can adapt to extreme heat. Read the opening answer, make a learning plan and follow the most useful questions. Adapt as you learn and give me the grid link.
Open my grid about AI in education. Find a claim that needs more evidence, examine that passage with a thinking tool and develop a connected follow-up.

Each answer or plan can take a few minutes. Your assistant checks progress and chooses the next step from the results. You can stop, change direction or return to the grid later.

For a short automatic overview, ask for the four-step guided option. For deeper exploration, ask your assistant to keep choosing useful directions from the content.

You choose the access

New grids start private. You approve which permissions an app receives: creating grids, reading grids you can access, or adding connected ideas where editing is enabled. Additions to a public grid are public.

A connection cannot overwrite existing ideas, delete grids or publish them. AI answers still need your judgement and source checking.

You can disconnect an app at any time from your connected apps. That page shows only your account's connections.
