Capability 02

The systems already exist. Getting them to agree is the work.

Most of what gets described as an AI problem turns out to be an integration problem: systems of record that disagree, data re-keyed by hand between them, and nothing holding a current view of the whole. We connect what you already run — without replacing any of it.

What we connect

The shape of it

One layer between the systems you run and the outcomes you want.

What you already run

  • CRM
  • ERP
  • Telephony & contact center
  • Databases & warehouses
  • Line-of-business APIs
  • Legacy systems with no API

What it makes possible

  • Clean, current, joined data
  • Automated workflows
  • Assistants and agents that act
  • Models fed something worth eating

What we connect

Nine categories, and the ninth is the one people call about.

We lead with categories rather than logos because the engineering problem is set by the category — an ERP integration has the same shape whoever built the ERP. Named platforms come further down the page.

CRM

Customer records, pipeline and activity history kept in step with what the rest of the business sees — including screen-pop and context delivered into the tools people already have open.

  • REST and SOAP APIs
  • Webhooks
  • Bi-directional sync
  • Custom modules

ERP

Orders, inventory, pricing and financials joined to the systems that create and consume them, so the system of record stops being the last to know.

  • Vendor APIs
  • Database-level integration
  • Scheduled and event-driven sync
  • Staging and reconciliation

Contact center & communications

Call, message and queue activity captured as structured events — the richest real-time stream most businesses own, and usually the least used.

  • Platform APIs and webhooks
  • Real-time event streams
  • CTI and screen-pop
  • Call metadata and disposition capture

Databases

Direct, read-safe access to the stores your applications sit on, including the ones with no application layer worth integrating against.

  • SQL and NoSQL connectors
  • Change data capture
  • Replication targets
  • Read replicas for safety

Documents & unstructured content

Contracts, invoices, quotes, scans and email turned into structured records that automations and models can actually use.

  • Intake pipelines
  • Extraction and classification
  • Validation with human review
  • Routing into systems of record

APIs & services

The line-of-business services specific to your industry — the ones no general integration platform has a connector for.

  • REST, GraphQL and SOAP
  • Message queues and event buses
  • Rate limiting and backoff
  • Retry and replay

Cloud platforms

Workloads, storage and services across cloud providers, connected to everything still running elsewhere.

  • Provider SDKs and APIs
  • Object storage pipelines
  • Serverless and container workloads
  • Identity federation

On-premise systems

Hardware and software inside your building, reached without opening it to the internet.

  • Outbound-only connectors
  • Site-to-site tunnels
  • Local agents
  • Hybrid data paths

Custom & legacy systems

Applications written in-house or by a vendor who has since disappeared, with no API, no documentation and no appetite for modification. This is the category we are asked about most.

  • Event-driven capture without code changes
  • Database and file-level bridges
  • Terminal and protocol adapters
  • Non-invasive observation

How we connect it

Six integration patterns.

Which one applies is decided by what the system permits, not by what we would prefer. Most estates need three or four of these at once.

API and webhook integration

When The system has a documented interface and we are allowed to use it.

The straightforward case. We build against the vendor interface, handle authentication and rate limits properly, and treat their downtime as a condition to design for rather than an incident to be surprised by.

Event-driven capture

When The system has no usable API, and modifying it is not an option.

We observe the system non-invasively and turn what it does into structured events. Nothing inside the application changes, which means nothing inside the application breaks. This is the pattern most often described to us as impossible.

Database-level bridging

When The data is reachable but the application layer is not worth integrating against.

Read-safe access, usually against a replica, with change data capture where the volume justifies it. Writes go back through supported paths wherever any exist.

Document and content pipelines

When The information arrives as a PDF, a scan, a spreadsheet or an email.

Intake, extraction, classification and validation — with human review on the cases that warrant it — so unstructured content becomes records the rest of the estate can act on.

Hybrid and on-premise connectivity

When Part of the estate is in a building and cannot be exposed.

Outbound-only connectors and local agents, so an on-premise system participates without becoming internet-facing. No inbound firewall exceptions.

Orchestration across systems

When A single business process spans four applications that have never spoken.

Sequencing, state, compensation when a step fails partway, and a record of the whole transaction rather than six disconnected logs.

How we build

Four rules we do not bend.

Non-invasive by default

The system your business depends on today keeps running exactly as it does today. We do not require code changes to it, and we do not make its vendor relationship our problem or yours.

Built to fail safely

Networks drop and vendors have outages. Every integration has explicit retry behavior, backoff, dead-letter handling and alerting, so a transient failure does not become silent data loss.

Observable

You can see what moved, what did not, and why. An integration you cannot inspect is a liability with good intentions.

Governed from the start

Lineage and traceability are part of the integration rather than a later project, because retrofitting them onto an estate already in motion is where the cost actually lands.

Platforms we integrate

Environments we have delivered production integrations into. The deepest work sits in communications and contact center, where we have built live operational systems on Dialpad and Vonage. If your stack is not here, that is not a blocker — it is the first thing we scope.

Communications & contact center

Where the deepest integration work sits.

  • Dialpad
  • Vonage
  • Cisco
  • GoTo Connect
  • NICE CXone

CRM & ERP

Systems of record we have integrated and extended.

  • SuiteCRM
  • Epicor
  • Odoo
  • QuickBase

Data & infrastructure

Where integrated data lands and runs.

  • PostgreSQL
  • MySQL
  • SQL Server
  • Containerized Linux

Named platforms are systems RPR integrates with and deploys into. Listing here describes our engineering experience, not a partnership, endorsement or reseller relationship. All marks belong to their respective owners.
