Vessel: Easily integrate with your customer’s CRM

⁉️ Problem

For products that need access to their customer’s CRM, having a breadth of integrations has become table-stakes. However, it is difficult to build CRM integrations in-house, because you need to:

  • support different types of authentication
  • understand the data model, APIs, and ever-changing specs of each CRM platform
  • handle platform limitations like API quotas and limited webhooks support
  • transform data from your customer’s CRM for use in your product

Companies are spending a lot of engineering resources building and maintaining CRM integrations in-house. For instance, we spoke to a company that built a HubSpot integration and had to turn it off because they didn’t have the resources to handle HubSpot’s API limits.

💡 Solution

Vessel is the universal API for CRMs, making it easy for developers to build applications that integrate with their customer’s CRM.

  • A unified interface to read and write across 8 objects: Accounts, Leads, Contacts, Deals, Events, Notes, Tasks, Users
  • Webhooks to keep your data fresh without polling even if the end platform does not offer webhooks on certain objects.
  • A drop-in UI to securely connect your customer’s CRM to your product
  • Avoidance of rate limits for platforms you integrate with
  • Improved developer experience with strongly associated objects. You can easily identify all of the associated objects (e.g. going from leads -> accounts, accounts -> leads)
