Yes, we can build you an app marketplace from A to Z and maintain it over its lifetime. Alternatively, we can populate your existing marketplace with our native integrations.

You can choose from 600+ ready-to-use apps currently listed in our app library or ask us to develop custom apps of your choice.

Can you build me an integration marketplace from scratch?

Unlike an API call, a transaction only counts when Albato successfully moves or modifies data within your automations. For example, if your automation has the action step to create a new deal in SalesForce, each created deal will use one transaction. Albato will not charge you for the trigger step, whereby it polls the SalesForce API for data changes.

Transaction-based billing is more cost-effective for you. Most competitors charge for API calls, which are consumed much faster than transactions. On average, it takes 1 transaction to eat up as many as 4-5 API calls or more.

What are transactions?

Fret not! Starting with the Standard Plan and up, we provide a service to deliver custom apps of your choice every month. Please remember that we can only integrate an app that has an accessible API with clear and detailed documentation.

What if I want an app you don't currently have in your library?

Yes. We can white-label your integrations. It may take a few weeks, as we will create a unique authentication app for each connector you use. Third-party platforms then review authentication apps (for example, a Shopify authentication app has to be reviewed by Shopify). We have little control over this step, hence unpredictable timelines.

Can you white-label embedded integrations so my customers don’t know Albato is there?

That largely depends on the number of apps you wish to connect, the complexity of your use cases, and the level of customization on the frontend side. On average, it may take up to 30-45 days for your integrations to go live.

How long does it take Albato to implement native integrations?

Relying 100% on third-party tools like Zapier can endanger the user experience of your customers. The major drawbacks of this approach are that your customers:

<ul class='list-disc ml-[25px]'><li>would have to leave your app and learn how to use Zapier</li>
<li>would have to sign up and pay for a third-party party tool on top of what they’re paying for your product</li>
<li>may run into technical issues or limitations on the Zapier end. In that case, they will be on their own dealing with their problems. They may even be unable to set up integrations with your product, and you will be unaware that they are getting stuck.</li>
<li>may not find the use cases they need in Zapier. There is no single “one-size-fits-all” integration tool that would satisfy everyone’s needs. Customers often want tailored functionality, and this is not Zapier’s forte.</li>
<li>may use Zapier to find out about your competitors and — if any of them have more automation templates, triggers, or actions available on Zapier—there is a big risk of your customers switching to a competitive product</li></ul>
All of the above can lead to a bad user experience being attributed back to your product!

On the contrary, with native integrations, your customers won’t have to:

<ul class='list-disc ml-[25px]'><li>leave your app or pay extra for Zapier or any other third-party tool</li>
<li>get through a long learning curve—all embedded integrations will be fully tailored to your customers’ needs and use cases. These integrations will come ready to rock and roll, and your customers will immediately gain all of the advantages of a seamless user experience</li>
<li>go through the hassle of interacting with Zapier customer support—Albato will provide superb dedicated support to you and your customers</li></ul>

All of the above can lead to a bad user experience being attributed back to your product!

On the contrary, with native integrations, your customers won’t have to:

Why do I need embedded integrations if I can just use Zapier instead?

No, you won’t. We will create new users automatically and enable native integrations for them.

Will I have to enable Albato integrations for each of my customers manually?

Unlike real-time automations, bulk data migration allows your integrations to move historical data in bulk. Data migration may prove crucial if, for example, your customers want to migrate their contact base or analytics from a third-party app to your platform, or vice versa. Another widespread use case would be uploading customer audiences or subscription lists to marketing platforms.

What is the Bulk data migration feature?

An API connector is a bunch of API methods that are needed to integrate with a specific cloud app. A connector allows exchanging data (pulling and sending) between your product and a third-party app. You can choose from our library of 600+ ready-to-use API connectors—the apps you can connect with.

What are connectors?

No. You get charged either for the number of active integrations (connectors) or for active users (your customers who use native integrations). The number of workflows and workflow steps for each integration or active user is unlimited.

Do I get charged each time my customers use native integrations?

No need to worry. If you go over your limit, you can purchase additional transactions anytime. Alternatively, if you’ve been consistently going over your base limit, we can bump it up for a recurring extra fee.

What happens if I go over my monthly transaction limit?

It’s entirely up to you how you monetize integrations on your end. Some of our partners provide integrations for free to stand out from the competition, some charge their customers based on their integration usage, and some offer integrations as a feature on a more expensive price plan, thus motivating users to upgrade their subscription plans.

Can I pass the integration costs on to my customers?

Yes. We can enable Albato automation builder for your end users so they can construct new workflows themselves using available apps, triggers, actions, and data points.

Can I allow my customers to set up custom automations?

There are a few simple steps to get going:

<ul class='list-disc ml-[25px]'><li>We ask you to fill out a brief describing your use cases, requirements, and other essential details.</li>
<li>We agree on the list of integrations (the apps we will natively embed in your SaaS), the price plan, the SLA, and then get the Albato licensing agreement signed.</li>
<li>We build an API connector for your application with the necessary triggers, actions, data points, and other functions. Please note that your app must have an accessible API with clear and comprehensive documentation.</li>
<li>We set up integration templates with the apps you require and tailor them to your customers’ needs.</li>
<li>We set up and configure the iFrame (UI) for your integrations.</li>
<li>We provide you (and your team) initial training and onboarding before you make the embedded integrations available to your customers.</li>
<li>You and your customers can just put your feet up and enjoy top-notch integrations, along with our high-touch customer service. :)</li></ul>

What do I need to get started with Albato Embedded?

Yes, we can set up SSO for your application.

However, your users will still have to authenticate and connect their accounts from third-party apps that we will integrate your product with.

However, your users will still have to authenticate and connect their accounts from third-party apps that we will integrate your product with.

Can you set up Single Sign-On (SSO) so my users don’t have to authenticate for embedded integrations?

We store authentication data in encrypted form. There is also a stand-alone, highly secure server where the decryption keys are harbored.

We store user data on AWS servers in the USA.

Only a limited number of authorized employees have access to the data. They need it to be able to troubleshoot system failures and make sure the backups are working faultlessly. As per GDPR, you may opt out of recording and storing user data anytime.

What about data privacy and security?

It is a unique feature of the Albato platform. Solutions allow you to easily group integrations by your customers' most frequent use cases. For example, you can create separate solutions for CRM integrations, e-commerce, or email marketing tools.

Your customers will enjoy using pre-packaged "integration kits" geared to their specific business needs.
