API integrations that keep working when nobody is watching
Our API integration service connects your software and tools so data moves on its own: a payment creates the order, a booking creates the calendar invite with its video link, a lead lands in the CRM, ad results arrive in your dashboard. We build integrations the way the providers document them — signed webhooks, duplicate handling, rate limits respected, retries — and log every exchange so a failure is seen, not discovered weeks later.
What we do for you
- A map of the data flows: what triggers what, in which system the truth lives, what happens on failure
- Integrations through official APIs, with credentials stored as secrets in your accounts
- Webhook receivers that verify signatures and ignore duplicates
- Rate limits and retries handled as each provider documents them
- A log of every exchange and an alert when something fails repeatedly
- Tests against each provider's sandbox or test mode before going live
- Documentation of each flow, so another developer can take over
Who it is for
- Fits: businesses re-typing data between tools (shop, payments, CRM, accounting, calendar, ads)
- Fits: products that need payments, email, calendars or marketplace data built in
- Fits: teams whose current integration (often a no-code chain) breaks silently
- Does not fit: scraping websites that do not offer an API or forbid automated access — we use official access
Integrations we have built
| Service | What we connected it for |
|---|---|
| Stripe | One-click checkout, payment confirmation, instant delivery by email |
| Resend (transactional email) | Order confirmations, account emails, deliveries |
| Google Calendar | Bookings that create an event with a Google Meet link |
| Google Ads API, Meta Ads API | Building and adjusting campaigns from our own tools |
| Search Console API | Daily search data for our content engine |
| Shopify Admin API | Collections, filters and catalogue management for a shop |
| A dropshipping supplier API | Orders passed to the supplier after payment |
| NocoDB | Operational data for our internal tools |
| GitHub Actions | Builds and deployments for every project |
| MCP | A server that lets a team's own Claude use the company's operating system — see Claude & MCP integrations |
What the providers ask for, and what we do
- Stripe webhooks. Stripe says to verify that each event comes from Stripe using the Stripe-Signature header and the endpoint's signing secret, to return a 2xx response quickly before complex logic, and warns that endpoints "might occasionally receive the same event more than once" and that event order is not guaranteed. Stripe retries failed deliveries for up to three days in live mode. Our receivers verify, acknowledge fast, process from a queue and track event IDs.
- Google Calendar. To attach a Google Meet link to an event, the API needs a conferenceData createRequest and conferenceDataVersion set to 1; conference creation is asynchronous and can start as "pending". We wait for it before sending the link.
- Shopify. Shopify rate-limits apps with a "leaky bucket": each request fills it, it empties at a restore rate, and a full bucket returns a throttle error. Our clients pace requests and back off instead of failing.
- Google Ads API. Access is granted by Google at different levels and production use requires an approved application. We plan for that step in the timeline.
How we build an integration
- Map the flow. Trigger, data, destination, owner of the truth, what happens if a step fails.
- Get official access. API keys or OAuth in your name, stored as secrets, never in the code.
- Build against test mode. Sandboxes and test events first (for example, Stripe's test events and CLI).
- Make it idempotent. Processing the same event twice must not create two orders or two invoices.
- Log and alert. Every exchange logged; repeated failures alert a person.
- Ship through dev, uat, prod. Like any code we write, with previews, builds on GitHub Actions and a person merging.
No-code chain or coded integration?
We use no-code tools when they are enough; we code when reliability or volume matters. See also workflow automation.
| Question | No-code chain | Coded integration |
|---|---|---|
| Speed to first version | Fast | Slower |
| Signature checks, duplicates, retries | Depends on the tool | Built in |
| Logs you can search | Varies | Yes, in your systems |
| Cost as volume grows | Often per task | Hosting only |
| Who can change it | Anyone, sometimes too easily | Through review and merge |
What you own
Accounts, API keys and data stay in your name. The integration code sits in your repository with its documentation. If a provider changes its API, the logs and tests show it quickly, and the change goes through the same review as any other.
Questions we get
Which tools can you connect?
Any service with an official API or webhooks. We have built integrations with Stripe, Resend, Google Calendar, Google Ads, Meta Ads, Search Console, Shopify, a dropshipping supplier, NocoDB and GitHub Actions.
What happens if a webhook arrives twice?
Nothing bad: we track event IDs so the same event is processed once, as Stripe recommends.
Will we be alerted if an integration breaks?
Yes. Every exchange is logged and repeated failures trigger an alert to a person.
Do you store our API keys?
Keys live as secrets in your accounts or your hosting, never in the code. We use the access you grant and you can revoke it.
Can you replace our Zapier or Make scenarios?
Yes, when reliability or cost justifies it. Sometimes the no-code chain is fine and we leave it.
