What is Integration?
Integration — The connective layer that lets agentic systems act across the tools and data that already run a business.
Integration is the primitive that answers how does an agent reach what already runs the business? An agent is only as useful as the systems it can touch, and integration is the layer that gives it that reach.
It is the layer where intelligence becomes action. Without integration an agent reasons in isolation; with it, reasoning turns into work inside the tools and data an enterprise already depends on.
Where integration sits in the stack
In the four-layer architecture of the agentic web, integration is a Meta-category (L3) concept — it consolidates fan-out within a category. See the thesis for how the layers compound.
