No company’s data stack ever fully catches up. There’s always a source that falls outside the standard list.

Maybe it’s a SaaS tool your team picked up last quarter. A niche platform built for your specific industry, or an internal tool your own engineers put together and never expected anyone outside the company to need to connect to.

Whatever it is, the problem is the same: your data platform has no connector for it.

Traditionally, you’ve had three choices:

  • Wait weeks or months for your data platform to build the connector.
  • Ask your engineering team to build and maintain one.
  • Use a connector SDK and take on the code, infrastructure, monitoring, and maintenance yourself.

Connect AI changes is built to solve this exact problem. All you have to do is give it the documentation for your REST API, and it builds the connector in hours – no code for you to write, no infrastructure to deploy. Once validated, the connector is deployed on Hevo and Hevo owns it from there: operated, monitored, and maintained on your behalf, the same as any native connector.

How Connect AI works: 3 Steps

Step 1: Provide documentation

Share the API documentation for your source – a documentation URL, an OpenAPI or Swagger specification, or other supported formats.

Step 2: Connect AI analyzes and builds

It understands the API, identifies available resources and authentication requirements, and generates the connector.

Step 3: Hevo deploys it

Once validated, the connector starts syncing data into your destination.

    Connect Your Common Sources Natively and Build Everything Else with Connect AI

    Hevo already provides 150+ native connectors across the databases, SaaS tools, and platforms most businesses rely on. But no catalog, no matter how large, will ever cover every application a company uses and that gap only widens as more software gets adopted.

    Connect AI splits the problem in two:

    • Common sources run on a native Hevo connector, built and hardened over time.
    • Everything else gets a new connector from Connect AI, built on demand.

    Your connectivity strategy no longer needs to depend on whether a source already exists in a catalog.

    The Catalog Size Race Doesn’t Matter Anymore

    For years, data platforms have competed on connector count, with 500 here and 1,000 there. But the size of a catalog doesn’t tell you whether it can connect to the tools your business actually uses.

    Your stack will keep changing. New SaaS tools, internal applications, and niche platforms will appear, and waiting for a vendor to add each one to its catalog isn’t sustainable.

    Connect AI changes the equation. Instead of asking, “Does Hevo have a connector for this?”, ask: “Does this source have a REST API?”

    If it does, Connect AI can turn that API into a fully managed Hevo connector, so your data stack isn’t limited by what’s already in a catalog.

    Your Teams Won’t Stop Adopting New Software

    New tools, internal applications, and data sources will keep appearing faster than any static catalog can keep up with. Your data infrastructure shouldn’t be the thing holding you back from adopting what you need next.

    With Connect AI, you can turn supported REST APIs into fully managed Hevo connectors in hours, so your team can adopt the tools it needs without waiting for your data platform to catch up.
