Example: Pipedrive Deal Won → Xero Invoice
══════════════════════════════════════════════════════
1. Sales rep marks deal as Won in Pipedrive
2. Webhook fires: deal.status = "won"
3. Integration fetches deal + organization + products
4. Looks up or creates Xero Contact from organization
5. Maps deal products → Xero invoice line items
6. Creates invoice in Xero with terms from deal
7. Updates Pipedrive deal with invoice reference
8. Payment in Xero triggers webhook back to update deal

AI & Custom Integration Examples

Beyond system-to-system connections, we build custom AI solutions and interfaces powered by Pipedrive data.

AI Sales Assistant

Sales reps query Pipedrive via natural language. "What deals are closing this week?" "Show me stalled opportunities over $10K." "When did I last contact Acme Corp?" Instant answers without navigating the CRM. Frees up selling time.

Smart Lead Scoring

AI analyzes deal attributes, engagement patterns, and historical win/loss data to score opportunities. Surfaces deals most likely to close and flags at-risk opportunities. Helps reps prioritize their pipeline effectively.

Automated Deal Follow-up

AI monitors deal activity and sends personalized follow-up reminders. "No activity on Acme deal for 7 days - suggest sending a check-in email." Can draft context-aware follow-up messages for rep approval.

Revenue Forecasting

AI combines Pipedrive pipeline data with historical conversion rates and seasonal patterns to predict revenue. More accurate than simple weighted pipeline calculations. Provides range forecasts with confidence levels.

Sales Coaching Bot

AI analyzes winning vs losing deals to identify success patterns. Suggests next best actions: "Similar deals at this stage had 3x higher close rate when technical demo was scheduled." Personalized coaching at scale.

Custom Dashboard Builder

Build real-time dashboards combining Pipedrive data with financial metrics from Xero. See pipeline by rep alongside actual invoiced revenue. Track quote-to-cash cycle time. Visual insights for sales leadership.
