Today, we’re excited to announce our partnership with emerging software design and engineering leaders OneSeven Tech to contribute to the future of custom gen AI applications. With extensive experience in custom solutions, OneSeven Tech brings Nylas customers more access to AI/ML development resources to launch intelligent communication capabilities faster and more efficiently than they would on their own.

The business case for email, calendar, and contact capabilities

Email, scheduling, and contact management are cornerstones of modern business communication, enabling seamless and efficient customer interactions. Whether sending solution requirements to a vendor, scheduling a visit to a car dealership, organizing a team meeting, or automatically queuing reminder emails, these actions shape consumers’ expectations for smarter, more personalized interactions. However, organizations must tackle significant challenges to build these app experiences customers crave. 

Many product managers and engineering leaders view communication integrations and other in-house builds as one-time projects with relatively finite costs. But the reality is these initiatives are almost always an ongoing investment that prevents your developers from completing other business-critical work. Take Gmail, for example. Android users receive an update to their Gmail app once every four days on average. Near-constant provider updates can constrain internal dev teams and negatively affect your user experience. And what happens when things go wrong? Even after investing months (or years) in a project, there is no guarantee that the assumptions in your original design will support a full-functioning integration.

Building integrations on your own is:

  • Expensive: High upfront costs to support multiple communications service providers.
  • Time-consuming: Not only on the initial builds but also the ongoing maintenance cost, plus building a secure, scalable, and compliant solution.
  • Risky: You’ll lose tribal knowledge when a key stakeholder leaves your company.
  • Distracting: Engineering teams lose productivity, wasting months building table-stakes features rather than valuable features for the business.

To maintain your competitive edge and scale up to 40x faster, Nylas allows your technical team to focus on your core business needs rather than spending time on table stakes functions like email and scheduling. 

As a business leader, you want to reduce development costs, accelerate time to market, and drive revenue growth while differentiating your product from the competition.

Nylas enables developers to build email and scheduling functionality into your applications. How? Nylas handles all the difficulties of access, compliance, security, and API maintenance with a single layer of abstraction that unlocks access to all major email and calendar providers (Google, Microsoft, Yahoo, IMAP, and more).
