Your Systems Don’t Talk to Each Other. We Make Them.

Samford Labs builds custom, bi-directional API integrations between the systems you already run — CRM, accounting, payments, and internal tools. Every engagement is fixed-scope, personally built by a senior engineer, and delivered with error handling, an audit trail, and full documentation. A single two-system integration starts at $5,000.

What does Custom Integrations include?

Bi-directional sync with error recovery and audit trails

Multi-API orchestration — order-to-cash flows across four or more APIs, executed atomically

Built to your stack: we extend the systems you own, never rip-and-replace

Handover documentation covering every endpoint, credential, and failure mode

How does a fixed-scope engagement work?

Every engagement follows the same four steps: a free assessment that maps your workflow, a fixed-scope proposal with a defined deliverable and price, a collaborative build where you see working software early and often, and a documented handover your team owns outright. Scope changes are re-approved before they cost anything.

How much does it cost?

Engagements start at $5,000, with no upper cap — the ceiling is your scope, not our menu. At the floor, that’s a single integration: two systems connected — bi-directional sync, error handling, full documentation, tested and shipped. Timelines are stated honestly in the proposal: weeks, not quarters, for the typical engagement.

What have you actually built?

Shipped systems, in production — some for clients, some products of our own. See all past work.

Talk2CRM

Mobile app that turns sales calls into CRM records. AI extracts contacts, deal values, and commitments from the call so reps stop typing afterward — with two-layer PII redaction before anything is processed. In beta now.

Order-to-Cash Integration

One workflow replacing four disconnected tools: pricing, tokenized payments, 50-state tax, shipping, and CRM sync orchestrated atomically across four APIs. Order processing time down about 70%.

Common questions about Custom Integrations

How much does a custom integration cost?

A single two-system integration starts at $5,000 — bi-directional sync, error handling, full documentation, tested and shipped. Multi-system orchestration is quoted as a fixed scope after the free assessment, and the proposal states the full price before any work begins.

Can you integrate systems that don’t have an official integration?

Yes — that’s the typical engagement. If both systems expose an API, or even file exports, we build a custom bridge with error recovery and an audit trail. Off-the-shelf connectors cover the easy 80%; we’re for the 20% that actually runs your business.

Will an integration disrupt the systems my team already uses?

No. We extend your systems rather than replace them — your team keeps working in the tools they know while data moves automatically in the background. Rollouts are staged, tested, and reversible.

What happens when one of the connected systems changes or fails?

The integration is built for failure from day one: retries, dead-letter handling, and alerts are standard, and the handover documentation covers every failure mode. If a vendor changes their API, the documented architecture makes the fix a small, scoped task — for us or any developer you choose.
