Webhook AI Integration

The Moment Something Happens Elsewhere, Your ERP Knows

Polling an external system for changes wastes calls and still misses things between checks. A webhook pushes the event to you the instant it happens. We build the receiving side with AI interpreting each payload and triggering the right action in your ERP, and capturing anything it cannot confidently interpret instead of letting it disappear silently.

Why It Matters

A webhook that fails silently is worse than no webhook at all

Most webhook integrations work fine until an unexpected event type arrives, and then quietly stop mattering.

Instant, Not Polled

Know the moment something changes, not five minutes later

Polling an API every few minutes for a change means every change is stale by definition, and it wastes calls checking for updates that have not happened. A webhook pushes the event the instant it occurs, so your ERP reacts in real time instead of on a schedule.

  • Events processed the moment they are received.
  • No wasted polling calls checking for nothing.
  • Your ERP reacts in real time, not on a delay.

Nothing Dropped Silently

An unrecognised event should raise a hand, not disappear

External systems occasionally send a new event type or a payload shape you did not plan for, and a naive receiver just ignores it. This integration is built to capture and flag anything it cannot confidently interpret, so you find out the same day, not three months later.

  • Unrecognised events captured, not silently discarded.
  • Flagged for review with the raw payload attached.
  • New event types added to the interpretation logic over time.

How It Works

From an external event to an ERP action

1
Map the event types
We identify which webhook events the external system sends and what each one means.
2
Build the receiver
We build a secure endpoint to receive and verify the incoming webhook calls.
3
Build the interpretation logic
AI interprets each payload and determines the correct action to take in your ERP.
4
Add deduplication
We check each event against processed history to prevent duplicate actions.
5
Go live and monitor
The receiver runs live with a flagged-event queue, refined as new event types appear.
What It Handles

What a webhook integration typically covers

Any external system that can notify you of an event as it happens.

💳

Payment events

Payment success, failure and refund events matched to orders and posted to your ERP.

🚚

Shipping and logistics events

Dispatch, delay and delivery events updating order status automatically.

📦

Inventory and supplier events

Stock updates and supplier notifications synced into your ERP in real time.

⚠

Unrecognised event capture

Any event type not yet interpreted, captured and flagged rather than dropped.

🔄

Deduplication

Repeated deliveries of the same event checked and discarded to avoid double actions.

📋

Event logging

A full history of received events and the actions they triggered, for audit.

FAQ

Webhook AI integration questions

What is webhook AI integration?
It is a receiver built to catch real-time events sent by an external system's webhook, interpret what the event's payload means, and trigger the right action in your ERP, such as updating a record or starting a workflow, within seconds of the event happening.
How is a webhook different from a REST API integration?
A REST integration typically involves your system asking another system for data. A webhook is the reverse: the other system pushes an event to you the moment something happens, so you find out immediately instead of polling for a change.
What happens if a webhook payload is not recognised?
It is captured and flagged rather than dropped silently. Many webhook failures go unnoticed for weeks because nothing was watching for them. This integration is built to surface any event it cannot confidently interpret.
Can it handle events from multiple sources at once?
Yes, a receiver can be built to accept events from several different external systems, each interpreted according to that source's own event structure and routed to the correct action in your ERP.
How do you make sure an event is not processed twice?
Each event is checked against a record of what has already been processed, so a retried or duplicate delivery, which webhook providers do send occasionally, does not create a duplicate action in your ERP.
How long does a first integration take?
A first working receiver for one event source usually takes four to six weeks, depending on how many event types need to be interpreted and acted on.
In Short

Real-time only helps if nothing gets lost along the way

A webhook receiver's entire value is in the events it catches, and its entire risk is in the ones it silently misses. Most failures in production come from the second half of that, not the first.

Building the receiver to capture and flag anything it cannot confidently interpret, and to guard against duplicate deliveries, is what turns real-time notifications into something your ERP can actually rely on.

Webhook Integration Features

What Is Inside the Webhook AI Integration

A receiver has to be secure, correct and honest about what it cannot handle. Here is how events are verified, interpreted and tracked from arrival to action.

Core Features

From an incoming call to a verified, actioned event

Signature Verification

Only genuine events from the expected source are trusted

Every incoming webhook is verified against the sending system's own signing method, so a call claiming to be from your payment provider or logistics partner is confirmed as genuine before its payload is even read, let alone acted on.

  • Signature or token verification on every incoming call.
  • Unverified calls rejected before processing begins.
  • Verification method matched to each source's own standard.

AI Payload Interpretation

Understanding what an event actually means

Once verified, the payload is interpreted to determine what type of event it is and what it implies for your ERP, even when the payload structure varies slightly between similar event types. Anything the interpretation is not confident about is flagged rather than acted on.

  • Event type and intent interpreted from the payload.
  • Tolerant of minor structural variation between events.
  • Low-confidence interpretations flagged, not auto-actioned.

Deduplication and Retry Handling

Reliable delivery without double-processing

Webhook providers often retry a delivery if they do not get a fast enough acknowledgement, which can otherwise result in the same event being processed twice. Each event is checked against a processed-event record before any action is taken, so retries are safe by design.

  • Every event checked against processed history first.
  • Safe handling of provider-side retries and re-deliveries.
  • Fast acknowledgement returned to avoid unnecessary retries.
