Custom remote connectors require Pro ($20/mo), Max ($200/mo), or Enterprise. The Free plan does NOT support custom connectors. ENTERPRISE NOTE: organization admins control whether members can add their own custom connectors via Enterprise settings → Permissions → Connectors permissions — this is DISABLED by default. Admins can also share connectors org-wide from the same panel. Both API Key and OAuth 2.0 authentication work with Agentcy — OAuth uses Dynamic Client Registration so you don’t need to configure Client ID/Secret manually. Custom remote connectors shipped on March 13, 2026 (Perplexity’s “Bring Your Own Connector” announcement).
