Use My Family Alarm with AI assistants

Updated November 12, 2026

Connect your AI assistant to My Family Alarm and ask it to do what you would do in the app: "Set a 6:45 alarm for the kids on school days", "Did Grandma check in this morning?", "Invite my sister to our family". It is free, and it works with any assistant that supports MCP connectors or can use a website.

The connector address for every assistant is:

https://familyalarm.com/mcp

How connecting works

1. Add the connector in your assistant (steps below).
2. The assistant opens a familyalarm.com page with a short code and a QR code.
3. On your iPhone, scan the QR code, or open My Family Alarm and go to Settings > AI Assistants > Enter code.
4. Check the assistant's name and tap Allow. The page sends you back to your assistant, connected.

There is no separate password: approving in the app is the sign-in.

ChatGPT

1. In ChatGPT, open Settings > Apps & Connectors. Custom connectors may need developer mode turned on under Advanced settings.
2. Choose Create, name it My Family Alarm, enter https://familyalarm.com/mcp and choose OAuth.
3. Approve in the app when the code appears.

Claude

1. On claude.ai or in the Claude app, open Settings > Connectors and choose Add custom connector.
2. Enter https://familyalarm.com/mcp and choose Add, then Connect.
3. Approve in the app when the code appears.

In Claude Code: claude mcp add --transport http family-alarm https://familyalarm.com/mcp, then run /mcp to connect.

Grok

1. Go to grok.com/connectors and choose New Connector, then Custom URL.
2. Enter https://familyalarm.com/mcp and connect.
3. Approve in the app when the code appears.

Meta Muse and assistants that ask for a key

Some assistants take a server address and an API key instead of signing in.

1. In My Family Alarm, go to Settings > AI Assistants > Create access key, name it, and copy the key. It is shown only once.
2. In your assistant, add a custom MCP server with the address https://familyalarm.com/mcp and paste the key where it asks for an API key or bearer token.

Instinct and assistants that use websites

Assistants that sign in to websites with a username and password can use a plain page made for them.

1. In My Family Alarm, go to Settings > AI Assistants > Create access key and copy the key.
2. Give your assistant the website https://familyalarm.com/assistant, any username, and the access key as the password.

What an assistant can do

• Set, change, turn on or off, and delete alarms for you or your family, including check-in alarms on Plus.
• Lock and unlock a child's alarm, if you are a parent or admin.
• See your family and recent check-ins.
• Create a family, invite people, join with a code, change roles, remove members and leave a family.
• Add a child and get a pairing code for their phone.

An assistant has exactly your permissions. If the app would not let you change an alarm, for example one a parent has locked, the assistant cannot either. Signing in, deleting your account, buying Plus and setting a child's parent PIN stay in the app.

Disconnecting

Open Settings > AI Assistants in the app and swipe to disconnect. The assistant loses access immediately. Deleting your account disconnects every assistant. See the Privacy Policy for what is shared.
