# Connecting AI to your existing systems

> We connect AI to your existing software, databases, document storage, email and equipment. Via secured interfaces, without replacing your programs.

An AI only knows your business through what it is connected to. We build secured interfaces to your order management, your databases, your document storage and, if you wish, to machines and sensors. Your programs stay as they are.

Connecting systems AI

- **Software:** ERP, order management, CRM
- **Data:** MySQL, MS-SQL, MongoDB, Excel
- **Storage:** Documents, email, calendar
- **Equipment:** Sensors, controllers, monitoring
- **Access:** read-only, writing only with approval

## What we connect

Modern programs with an interface as well as older legacy systems for which there is no ready-made solution.

- Orders and accounting: Customers, orders, invoices and open items, for example from the [1x1-WorkOrderAgent](https://1x1it.de/en/workorderagent/) or your existing ERP.
- Databases: Directly to MySQL, MS-SQL or MongoDB, with dedicated read accounts that only see what they should.
- Documents and mailbox: Manuals, contracts, reports and emails become searchable, without you having to reorganise your files.
- Machines and sensors: Readings, fault messages and status from [industrial monitoring](https://1x1it.de/en/industrialmonitoring/). That way you can ask the shop floor too, not just the office.

## How the connection is built

Each connection gets only the rights it needs. Reading comes first, writing comes later and only with approval.

- Define the sources: We clarify which data is really needed for your questions and processes. Nothing more gets connected.
- Build the interface: Via existing APIs, directly at the database or, for legacy systems, with a custom bridge.
- Test with real questions: Your team asks the questions from everyday work. We check the answers before the connection goes live.
