THE REALITY

Vena is brilliant at what it does. Useless at everything else your data + AI needs to touch.


Actuals get pasted into Vena's Excel templates from exports, so budget vs actual lags the ledger. Driver data lands stale, refreshes wait on the load, and AI scenario work stalls when the numbers sit outside the central database.

The integration tool you've already tried probably can't fix it.

What Zapier + iPaaS reach

SaaS-to-SaaS. Useful, until it isn't.

Connectors for Vena, Slack + a thousand other SaaS apps. Cheap + fast for the easy half of integration. Where they hit a wall:

  • ERP and accounting ledgers that hold the actuals behind every Excel model
  • CRM pipeline that should drive the revenue forecast in real-time
  • Data warehouse and BI beyond Vena Insights that need the plan's outputs
  • HRIS that feeds headcount into workforce planning
  • Ops and billing systems holding the volumes behind driver-based budgets
What Rayven reaches

ERP, accounting, ops, BI + AI. One platform.

The integration platform built for what other tools can't (or won't) reach - plus an AI data fabric, MCP server + app builder layered on top.

  • Vena + every ERP, accounting and data warehouse system
  • ERP, accounting, data warehouses, CRM, HRIS + custom-built connectors.
  • Files, legacy SQL, FTP + custom-built connectors
  • Real-time bidirectional sync, tier-aware + rate-limit-safe
  • AI Data Fabric, MCP, automation + custom apps included
WHAT YOU CAN BUILD

Vena + Rayven: AI, automation + tools that reach every system you run.

BEYOND INTEGRATION

Integration is the start with Rayven.
Here's what comes with it.


Rayven isn't just a Vena connector. It's the operational software platform underneath - so once Vena is connected, four more capabilities come online by default.

01
 

AI-ready data layer (AI Data Fabric)

Vena data joined with ERP, IoT + legacy - contextualised, unified and structured so AI models, agents and tools can use it without ETL prep work.

02
 

Live AI access (Rayven MCP)

Claude, ChatGPT + Gemini get live, governed access to Vena and every other connected system. Your AI stops guessing - cites real Vena records + numbers.

03
 

Automation + AI agents

Workflows + AI agents act on Vena data without human intervention - escalate at-risk accounts, trigger operational work, auto-update forecasts, draft customer comms.
Learn more →

04
 

Custom apps + portals

Unified customer portals, ops dashboards, mobile field apps, partner portals - built on top of integrated Vena data. No separate BI tool, no separate dev stack.
Learn more →

All on top of your existing stack. No rip + replace. Vena stays Vena. Rayven works on what you've already built. Specifically tuned for Vena central-database mapping + non-native ledger actuals.

What is Vena integration?

Vena integration connects Vena to the systems that hold your actuals and drivers - ERP, accounting, CRM and the data warehouse - so the Excel-native model runs on live data. Rayven delivers it as part of an AI data fabric, not a single-purpose connector.

How does Rayven connect Vena to other systems?

Rayven uses the Vena REST API for real-time bidirectional sync into the central database behind the Excel front-end. Actuals, forecasts, templates, drivers and versions all flow as first-class integration events. See the Rayven Platform for how the integration and data layers fit together.

What systems can Rayven connect Vena to?

Rayven connects Vena to 1,228+ systems including ERP, Sage Intacct, Salesforce, and sibling planning tools like Planful and Jedox. Custom integrations are part of done-for-you delivery.

How long does Vena integration take with Rayven?

Most Vena integrations go live in 2-12 weeks. A single actuals-to-Vena or forecast-to-warehouse feed runs in 2-3 weeks; a full planning fabric with AI-led scenario modelling runs 6-12 weeks. Choose DIY, done-for-you or hybrid delivery.

Vena is Excel-native + ties to Power BI. Why does Rayven add value on top?

Vena's Excel front-end and Vena Insights ties to Power BI and Teams cover the Microsoft path well. Rayven adds value where they stop: live actuals from any ledger instead of pasted exports, pushing forecasts to non-Vena BI, and the AI scenario and agent layers on top. Rayven complements Vena. See how Rayven works.

What are the technical specifics of Vena integration with Rayven?

Rayven connects to Vena through its REST API using token-based authentication for real-time bidirectional sync. The central database behind the Excel front-end, along with templates, dimensions, accounts and versions, is mapped natively, so actuals load with field-level mapping rather than pasted exports. Actuals from ERP and accounting post into the model by entity and account as they land, so the Excel front-end shows live budget vs actual and rolling forecasts. Rate limits are managed through batching and back-pressure so planning-cycle loads never throttle out. Approved forecasts push back to ERP, the data warehouse and BI beyond Vena Insights with dimensions intact. Driver and headcount data streams into Rayven's data fabric for the AI scenario layer, and Vena's Microsoft-stack ties to Power BI and Teams are preserved. Validated against Vena Complete Planning with the central database and non-native ledgers connected.
