Breeze Assistant connectors let you ask about Gong, Slack, Xero, and other apps from inside HubSpot. We walk through HubSpot's current app list, which plans get the assistant and agent sides, how to connect an app and see what it can do, and why a Xero connector is not the same as the Xero data sync. First thing to try: open Breeze Assistant, click the plus sign, go to Connectors, then Manage connectors, and read the actions listed for an app you already use.

Who it's for: HubSpot admins, RevOps and sales leaders using Breeze Assistant connectors (all plans) or connecting apps to HubSpot's AI agents (Starter and up for the hubs, Smart CRM Professional and up).

Our research first covered this on October 14, 2026. Here's where it stands as of our Oct 31, 2026 check. HubSpot's help article (updated Oct 21, 2026) lists 18 apps for Breeze Assistant, including Fathom, Xero, Box, Canva, Gong, and Slack, plus Google Drive, Gmail, NetSuite, and Zoom (beta), which our write-up called coming later. The agent list adds Zapier and does not include NetSuite. Our write-up said connectors are on every tier. That holds for Breeze Assistant; connecting apps to agents starts at Starter. New connectors are added from Connectors, then Add connector. We couldn't confirm the write-up's MCP framing for Breeze Assistant, the two-minute setup time, or its service account advice, and Box admin steps are not in HubSpot's articles.

Breeze Assistant can build a presentation from a prompt, and HubSpot's help article documents a Save as PPTX button in the artifact viewer. We walk through starting a deck, refining it with follow-up messages and versions, sharing it inside HubSpot or through a public read-only link, and the upload limits for bringing in an old deck. First thing to try: ask Breeze Assistant for a short review deck, refine it in chat, then click Save as PPTX on the version you trust.

Who it's for: sales managers, reps, and marketers on any HubSpot plan who build recurring review or proposal decks.

Our research first covered this on October 14, 2026. Here's where it stands as of our Oct 31, 2026 check. HubSpot's help articles (updated Oct 21 and Oct 29, 2026) document versioned presentations, Save as PPTX, sharing inside your account or publicly through a read-only link, and Remix for an editable copy. Uploads are limited to 10 files and 50 MB in total per thread. Our write-up described a 50 MB per-file limit and a Download .pptx button. We couldn't confirm direct in-deck editing of text, backgrounds, and layouts, Undo and Redo, or a fullscreen present button in HubSpot's help articles.

When you connect apps like Slack or Notion to Breeze Assistant, someone will ask what the AI can change. HubSpot now lets you set that tool by tool. We walk through where the setting lives, what the three options mean, and how to set read and write tools in bulk. First thing to try: open Settings, Integrations, Connected Apps, pick an app, open its Settings tab, and set write tools to Ask permission.

Who it's for: HubSpot admins and ops leads using Breeze Assistant connectors (all plans) or connecting apps to HubSpot's AI agents (Starter and up for the hubs, Smart CRM Professional and up).

Our research first covered this on October 9, 2026. Here's where it stands as of our Oct 31, 2026 check. HubSpot's help articles (updated Oct 16 and Oct 21, 2026) put tool permissions under Settings, Integrations, Connected Apps, on each app's Settings tab. Our write-up described a Breeze section and called the middle option require confirmation. HubSpot's label is Ask permission. Our write-up said agents are available on Free. HubSpot lists Starter and up for connecting apps to agents. We couldn't confirm that trimming tools makes agents faster or more accurate. HubSpot recommends selecting only the tools an agent needs. Eight Breeze Assistant connectors were sunset on Sept. 26, 2026.
