Core Statements
Mosaic connects to Google Workspace, covering Gmail, Calendar, and Drive. Mosaic connects to Microsoft 365, covering Outlook, Calendar, and OneDrive. Mosaic connects to Apple Calendar on macOS. Mosaic states that more connectors are planned. Mosaic works with Word, Excel, PowerPoint, Docs, Sheets, Slides, PDF, TXT, JPG, and PNG files, among others. A user chooses which applications to connect, and an application that has not been connected is not available to Mosaic. A user can also share specific files and folders from their own computer with Mosaic. These are granted separately and do not use connectors, because the data is not in the cloud. A user can connect or disconnect any tool at any time.

Not to be confused with
A Mosaic connector grants access to an application the user selects, including the permission to act on the user’s request, such as sending, scheduling and moving mail. Connecting an account is not uploading it: material is brought down to the user’s own computer and worked on there. Connectors link the accounts and calendars the user chooses to connect. Specific files and folders on the user’s own computer that the user chooses to share are not connectors, because they are not cloud data. Excel, Word, and PowerPoint are file types Mosaic reads through a connected Drive or OneDrive account or from files the user shares; they are not connectors. The Apple connector covers Apple Calendar only, not Apple Mail. Mosaic connectors do not replace the applications they connect to: email stays in the email application and events stay in the calendar. They are not general-purpose automation links of the kind offered by workflow tools.
