Welcome to Paragon
Embedded integration infrastructure for B2B SaaS & AI products
Paragon is an all-in-one embedded platform for building native product integrations that connect your product with your customers’ 3rd-party SaaS apps, without the plumbing.
The core platform provides you the building blocks for every integration (130+ native connectors as well as a custom integration builder), including:
- An embedded SDK to build seamless in-app integration experiences, with a white-labeled Connect Portal (or build your own UI with a headless implementation)
- Multi-tenant architecture that keeps every one of your customer’s data and integration configuration isolated
- Fully managed integration authentication (OAuth 2.0/API Keys) for every integration
- Detailed event logs for enterprise‑ready monitoring and observability
- Flexible deployment options: cloud, on-premise, or forward-deployed
Platform Overview

When building the integration logic, you can pick from Paragon’s suite of three purpose‑built products:
Managed Sync
- Fully managed and normalized data ingestion pipelines and 3rd-party permissions graph.
ActionKit
- Universal API & MCP to access hundreds of synchronous CRUD actions in real time.
Workflows
- An event‑driven runtime for orchestrating complex, asynchronous integration logic.
To help you determine which product to use, you can explore by use case or by product below.

Purpose-built products to implement your desired integration use case.
Managed Sync
Managed Sync provides two easy-to-use APIs to pull high volumes of data from your users’ integrations into your app, while respecting the data’s underlying permissions:
- Sync API: Enable full syncs of your users’ 3rd-party data with two API calls
- Permissions API: Enforce access control on ingested 3rd-party data in RAG
Highlights
- Declarative ingestion jobs for files, CRM records, tickets, accounting data, and more
- Automatic backfill + incremental sync with failure recovery
- Record/document Permissions API for downstream queries
- Scale to hundred of millions of records without managing infrastructure
Common Use Cases
- Knowledge ingestion for RAG (ie. files, knowledge bases, meeting transcripts, chat)
- Structured data ingestion (ie. CRM, accounting, ticketing)

ActionKit
ActionKit is a single API to add Paragon’s library of hundreds of Integration Actions into your product or AI agent
When to use: You need to implement real-time, synchronous responses for common integration actions, or supply your AI agent or workflow product with hundreds of integration actions.
Highlights
- Real-time execution SLAs (extremely low-latency)
- Uniform interface for every integration
- Use-case specific schema formats (for AI agents or workflow products)
Common use cases:
- Integration tools for AI agents
- Integrations for your workflow product
- Taking action in 3rd-party apps in real-time

Workflows
Build asynchronous event‑driven automations and orchestrate integration logic at scale.
When to use: You need to build durable, asynchronous, event-driven background jobs between your app and your users’ 3rd-party apps.
Highlights
- Build in low-code or Typescript, and version control all workflows in Git
- Highly extenisble - implement any integration logic
- Durable jobs infrastructure (queues, dynamically scaled workers)
- Supports listening to any 3rd-party webhook
Common Use Cases
- Trigger custom event-driven automations in your users’ 3rd-party apps
- Trigger automations in your application from 3rd-party webhooks
