## Connect your entire stack — one unified workflow

Every minute your tools don't talk to each other is a minute your team spends on manual entry instead of building. Use the XBuild Connectors to bridges your CRM, supplier pricing, and field documentation into a single, seamless integrated construction project lifecycle.

***

## Three pillars. Every phase covered.

### 1. CRM & Workflow — Customer System of Record

<CardGroup cols={2}>
  <Card title="AccuLynx" icon="people-arrows">
    Launch XBuild projects directly from an AccuLynx lead and sync homeowner data instantly. Milestone updates like "Proposal Sent" or "Contract Signed" flow back to AccuLynx automatically, keeping your office pipeline current in real time.
  </Card>

  <Card title="JobNimbus" icon="people-arrows">
    Pull contact and property details from JobNimbus into a new XBuild project in one tap. As jobs progress, XBuild pushes status updates back so your team always has a live view of the sales pipeline.
  </Card>
</CardGroup>

**The power:** These connectors eliminate the dead zone between a lead and an estimate. Your office team never has to ask "where does this job stand?" again.

***

### 2. Suppliers — Precision Pricing

<Card title="ABC Supply" icon="tag">
  Pull live, branch-specific pricing based on your negotiated contractor rates as you build estimates. Convert a finalized estimate into a purchase order in a single click — no spreadsheets, no phone calls, no guesswork.
</Card>

**The power:** Stop relying on static price lists. Real-time pricing from ABC Supply locks in your margin before you present the proposal, protecting you from material cost fluctuations.

***

### 3. Visual Documentation — Proof of Work

<Card title="CompanyCam" icon="camera">
  Every photo taken in the field attaches to the correct XBuild project. Pull before-and-after shots directly into homeowner proposals to justify scope and maintain a permanent, time-stamped record of progress. Do the same for insurance claim photos.
</Card>

**The power:** Visual evidence is your best sales tool and your best defense. This connector ensures nothing falls through the cracks between the field and the proposal or claim.

## How it comes together: Steve's workflow

Meet Steve, a veteran sales rep. Before XBuild, his truck time was a frustrating ritual of copying addresses from a CRM, checking a separate app for material prices, and digging through his camera roll for site photos.

Here's what that same job looks like today.

<Steps>
  <Step title="Sync — AccuLynx (or JobNimbus)">
    Steve pulls up to the Miller residence and taps **Link CRM Lead**. XBuild pulls the contact info and property details from AccuLynx instantly. No manual entry.
  </Step>

  <Step title="Document — CompanyCam">
    He walks the roof taking photos via CompanyCam. Those photos appear inside XBuild in real time, organized to the Miller project and ready to drop into his proposal.
  </Step>

  <Step title="Price — ABC Supply">
    Steve builds the estimate. Because he's connected to ABC Supply, the shingles he's quoting reflect his current branch rate. Margin locked in before he closes the truck door.
  </Step>

  <Step title="Close">
    He presents a polished, multi-trade proposal on his tablet. The Millers sign on the spot.
  </Step>

  <Step title="Automate — AccuLynx">
    As Steve pulls away, XBuild pushes the signed contract, photos, and updated job status back to AccuLynx automatically. Zero manual follow-up.
  </Step>
</Steps>

<Note>
  Steve moved from a raw lead to a funded contract in real time — with complete data accuracy and zero manual entry across three platforms.
</Note>
