Connectors / Integrations
Module: tool mastery
What it is
Connectors or integrations link AI systems to external data sources and tools—Google Drive, Slack, databases, APIs, etc. They allow AI to access and act on data from your existing systems rather than being isolated. Many AI platforms offer pre-built connectors for popular services.
Why it matters
Connectors make AI useful in context. An AI that can search your company's documentation, read your emails, or update your CRM is far more practical than one operating in isolation. When evaluating AI tools, available integrations often determine real-world usefulness.
