THE MAINTENANCE DIFFERENCE
Unlike one-off consulting, we proactively monitor your integrations and handle all ongoing maintenance. When Salesforce deprecates an API or Stripe changes their OAuth flow, we fix it before you even know there's a problem.
Billed annually ($150,000/year). We build 5 new integrations per month and provide unlimited maintenance on all integrations, acting as your dedicated integration team.
BEST FOR:
Series A-B startups and growth-stage companies that need enterprise integrations to close deals, but can't afford the time or risk of building and maintaining them in-house.
THE TRUE COST OF BUILDING INTEGRATIONS IN-HOUSE
Most teams only calculate initial build time. They forget about continuous maintenance, opportunity cost, and deals lost while waiting for integrations to be ready.
THE MAINTENANCE TRAP
Integrations aren't "done" once deployed. They require constant attention:
OAuth flows break without warning
Every 6-12 months per integration
API rate limits change
2-3 times per year
Endpoint deprecations
1-2 per integration annually
Schema changes breaking data syncs
Ongoing
Each incident takes 4-12 hours to debug and fix. Your engineers will drop everything to fix a broken integration when a customer complains.
Salesforce, Stripe, HubSpot, etc.

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS
Is Databite still free and open source?
Yes. Databite is MIT-licensed, free forever, and fully self-hostable. There are no usage limits, request caps, or vendor lock-in. The service is optional and purely for teams that want expert help building and maintaining integrations.
What exactly am I paying for?
You are paying for Databite's maintainers to design, build, and continuously maintain integrations for you. This includes handling all the ongoing work: API changes, OAuth updates, rate limit adjustments, and bug fixes. All code is delivered to your repository and runs on your infrastructure.
Why is maintenance so important?
Most teams think integrations are 'done' once built. In reality, third-party APIs constantly evolve—endpoints get deprecated, authentication methods change, and rate limits shift. Without dedicated maintenance, integrations break, often at the worst possible time (like during a customer demo or right before quarter-end).
Can my team extend or modify the connectors later?
Absolutely. All connectors are fully open source and can be modified by your team at any time. You own the code.
How many integrations does this cover?
We build 5 new production-ready integrations per month (60 per year), plus unlimited maintenance and updates on all integrations we've built for you. If you need integrations built faster, we can discuss custom arrangements.
