Integrations

Connect your communication channels to Slokoto so it can read your conversations, understand context, and keep your AI-led CRM up to date automatically.

What it does

The Integrations page is where you connect your email, phone, chat, and marketing channels to Slokoto. Once connected, Slokoto:

  • Reads your conversations - Understands what is being said between you and your prospects
  • Updates your CRM automatically - Creates leads, updates records, and manages stage movement from real interactions
  • Prioritizes follow-ups - Uses AI to decide what matters most right now
  • Keeps Todo and Upcoming aligned - New inbound replies surface now, while waiting states move into Upcoming

Think of integrations as Slokoto's communication layer. Instead of you manually updating CRM records, Slokoto reads your actual conversations and keeps the CRM, pipeline, and action state aligned automatically.

What happens after you connect?

Once you connect an integration, here is what to expect:

Signals start from now

Slokoto begins monitoring new signals from the moment you connect. This means:

  • New emails, calls, and messages from now on will be captured
  • Historical data from before the connection is generally not imported unless a specific backfill exists

Your views populate over time

  • CRM / Pipeline - Leads and stage state begin to appear as Slokoto observes real activity
  • Todo view - Recommendations appear when action is needed now
  • Upcoming view - Scheduled follow-ups and waiting states appear when the lead is not actionable yet
  • Lead View - Each lead gains a richer timeline, thread history, and AI context as conversations continue

Why we work this way

  • Fresh priorities - Recommendations are based on recent, relevant activity
  • Less noise - You are not flooded with stale leads from old systems
  • Fast start - You can begin using Slokoto immediately without a heavy migration project

Tips

  • Start with Gmail - It gives Slokoto the fastest real-time signal loop
  • Check connection health - If you see "Needs Attention," reconnect to restore data flow
  • Use OAuth when available - It is more secure and handles token refresh automatically
  • Add more channels - The more signals Slokoto sees, the richer and more accurate your CRM becomes

Privacy & security

  • Slokoto only reads data unless a feature explicitly requires a write action you trigger
  • No outbound email or SMS is sent unless you explicitly trigger it or enable a workflow that is allowed to send it
  • Credentials are encrypted and never exposed in the interface
  • You can disconnect at any time to stop data sharing
