How the Elai integration works
The Elai integration connects your Dench AI CRM directly to Elai, so agents can read and act on your Elai data as part of everyday work — answering questions in chat, keeping your CRM in sync, and running automations without anyone copying data between tools.
8 actions are available for agents to invoke on your behalf. Every call runs through Elai's own authorization, scoped to the account you connect.
