An Integration
The value we bring to your business
Connecting your systems can be a true game-changer, but getting there is often a daunting and complex task. To succeed, you need the right expertise, developers, and business relationships. That’s why Strawbay exists. We’ve done all the heavy lifting.
What types of businesses use Strawbay?
In both theory and practice, Strawbay can be used to connect all kinds of systems. However, thanks to our background and network, we have a particularly strong presence in the Finance space.
We help banks, fintechs, creditors, and other niche service providers connect key systems within and around their business. Examples of systems include custom-built software, ERPs, credit data, debt collection, and invoicing platforms.

Platform Components
Strawbay has 4 main components that can be combined. Connectors integrate two or more systems and Flows decides how data travels between them, while Monitor keeps an eye on it all. Onboard is a UI that faces your customers if/when they’re authenticating a connection.
Connector
A connector is what links Strawbay to a specific system. Our platform comes preloaded with a catalog of integrations. Missing one? Build it yourself through our low-code editor or drop us a line and we’ll build a custom connector for you.
Flow
Flows are a set of instructions that tell Strawbay what data to move between different connectors. To create one smooth, headache-free experience, flows are written using our own DSL, which is compatible with all connector APIs.
Monitor
No more black-box integrations. You have full visibility into your integrations – right at your fingertips. See the status of all active connectors and flows. Need more detail? Just drill down into the logs for connectors, flows, and transactions.
Onboard
Some system integrations require your clients to authenticate the connection themselves. For those cases, we provide our Onboarding UI. To oversimplify: it’s a graphical user interface that guides your clients when they authenticate a connection between two or more systems.
The Bay Toolbox
We’re working hard on creating the most competent integration toolbox known to man. We’ve developed our own DSL – declarative, expressive, and built for integrations. We’re also working on a smooth low-code editor to supercharge your workflows. More is yet to come!
Our Own DSL
Messy, hard-coded integrations between systems quickly turn into a tangled web of dependencies – classic code spaghetti. We solve this with a clean, centralized approach.
At the core of Strawbay is a custom Domain-Specific Language (DSL), purpose-built to define, manage, and automate flows between systems. With our DSL, you can easily orchestrate data movement, transformations, and conditions across all your connectors, using a human-readable format tailored for integration logic.
No scattered scripts. No hidden magic. Just clear, maintainable logic – all in one smooth place.
Low-code Editor
One of the key issues with traditional integration services is the “black box” problem: clients often can’t see or modify their own integrations. At Strawbay, we’re changing that.
We’re currently developing a state-of-the-art low-code editor to supercharge your integration workflows. The editor will launch in 2025. With it, you’ll have full access to create and edit flows and connectors as you wish – even custom ones delivered through our professional services.
The editor consists of three main components: A low-code interface, A flowchart-style visualization of the logic, and an editable JSON output for full control.
Professional Services
Even-tough managing integrations in Strawbay is a breeze, we know that not everyone has the time or will to do it by themselves. That’s why we’re giving you the opportunity to hire developers and project managers to do the “heavy lifting” for you.
Integration Engineers
If you need custom development of flows and/or connectors, our seasoned Integration Engineers are ready to jump in.
Not only are they experts in Strawbay’s DSL and platform – they’re also senior developers with deep experience in building robust, scalable integrations.
Solutions Architects
Working with a complex software ecosystem? Maybe some in-house systems, maybe even on-prem solutions that all need to talk to each other?
Our experienced Architects will help you map out your integration strategy, align business needs with technical realities, and make it all flow smoothly.
Prebuilt Integrations
Strawbay comes preloaded with a bunch of common Fintech integrations, and we are constantly adding more. If a system is missing you can create a connector yourself or request us to do it.
