# Custom software and API integration work

> Get systems integration scoped and quoted: the systems to connect, what flows between them, the data volume, the deadline and the budget.

Joinery: Two systems, joined properly. Send a requirement.

## What it is for

A business running several systems (an ERP, a storefront, a warehouse system, a CRM, an accounting package) often needs them to exchange data: orders flowing to fulfilment, invoices to accounting, stock levels back to the store. The work depends on the systems, their APIs and the volume, and small jobs are hard to staff. Set out the systems, what flows between them, the volume, the deadline and the budget, so a developer can scope it in one reading.

Operations and IT managers at small and mid-sized businesses, founders without engineering staff, product teams needing a connector built, and agents scoping work for them.

## What happens next

You get a reference number and your job as a written brief. We look at every requirement, and when we can find a developer or a ready-made connector for those systems, we reply to the email you leave. Don't send API keys, passwords or customer data. Nothing is ordered or committed until you agree terms. Contact details are kept apart from the requirement and deleted after 180 days.

## What you get

A reference number, a brief of the integration (systems, data flows, volume, deadline and budget) a developer can scope, and a reply when we can find one.

## Scope

Anywhere; where the work or its hosting must be is recorded as stated.

- Credentials, keys and production data are not accepted.
- Whether an off-the-shelf connector already exists is not checked before the requirement is recorded.

## Send a requirement

Describe the systems and the flow below and send them. Agents can POST the same fields to /software-integration/requests or call the submit_request tool.
