Exalate celebrates 15 years of helping businesses keep operations in sync as the need for controlled integration with AI agents increases.
Exalate, a global provider of enterprise integration software, is celebrating a 15-year revenue growth milestone of 26% year over year as organizations place greater emphasis on reliable integration infrastructure for increasingly complex AI-assisted operations.
Connectivity alone is not enough. As AI enters enterprise workflows, governed integration prevents speed from becoming chaotic. ”
— Francis Martens, Exalate Co-Founder and CEO
Demand for integration increases with AI adoption
Businesses now operate faster and across more systems, departments, partners, customers, and external service providers than ever before. AI is accelerating its pace and changing what companies expect from integrated software.
When work relies on accurate and controlled synchronization between different systems and organizations, connectivity between tools is no longer enough. Enterprises need a unified infrastructure that maintains data consistency, supports operational continuity, and controls collaboration across organizational boundaries.

Flexible design, designed for complexity
Exalate is built for fine-grained synchronization. It supports not only simple tool-to-tool connections, but also complex integration scenarios involving multiple systems, organizations, permissions, data rules, and workflow logic, enabling autonomous, real-time, two-way sync across Jira, ServiceNow, Salesforce, Azure DevOps, Zendesk, Freshservice, Asana, and more.
This allows departments, external vendors, and corporate partners to collaborate seamlessly while maintaining full ownership of their data, security perimeters, permissions, and security protocols.
As AI automation puts pressure on enterprise environments, this level of control has become a critical operational requirement. AI agents are consuming data, triggering updates, and starting to operate across tool stacks, making dependent integration layers a governance priority. Exalate provides the controlled integration layer that organizations need for the workflows and data exchanges that agents rely on.
“Governance gaps in corporate mergers are not new. What is new is the consequences,” said Francis Martens, co-founder and CEO of Exalate. “Agents are already active throughout enterprise workflows, and businesses need to know exactly what is moving, where it is going, who is controlling it, and what happens when something changes. Connectivity alone is not enough. It is governed integration that prevents speed from descending into chaos.”
Unified governance gets an AI-native configuration layer
In 2026, Exalate launched a redesigned product experience that adds visibility, version control, testing, and day-to-day management controls. At the heart of this release is Aida, a context-aware AI layer built directly into your configuration workflows. Rather than a general-purpose AI tool added on top, it’s a purpose-built assistant that allows teams to plan integrations, generate synchronization logic from plain language input, interpret errors in context, and test changes before they reach production. As a result, complex integration configurations become more accessible without sacrificing the explicit, reviewable logic required for enterprise compliance and governance.
“Our customers operate across tools, teams, partners, and markets,” said CFO and co-founder Hilde van Brempt. “What they need is an integration layer that addresses that complexity, one that is built for long-term reliability, not just quick setup.”
