Exalate is celebrating 15 years in enterprise integration, reporting 26% year over year revenue growth as organizations place greater emphasis on synchronization and integration infrastructure in increasingly AI assisted environments. The company says growing AI adoption is making control, visibility, and reliable data exchange across business systems essential for maintaining operational continuity.
Enterprise Work Gets More Connected
Exalate is marking 15 years in enterprise integration software, reaching the milestone alongside 26% year over year revenue growth. The company says organizations are placing greater emphasis on reliable integration infrastructure as AI assisted processes become more common.
Enterprise work now moves across a growing number of systems, departments, customers, partners, and external service providers. This environment requires more than simply connecting applications. As workflows spread across organizational boundaries, businesses face increasing pressure to maintain consistency, continuity, and control over the information flowing between systems.
According to Exalate, AI is accelerating the pace of enterprise activity and changing expectations around integration software. The company argues that organizations require infrastructure capable of supporting collaboration, especially as automation becomes embedded in daily operations.
Why Simple Connections No Longer Meet Enterprise Needs
The company believes that basic connectivity no longer addresses the demands of modern enterprise environments. While applications can be connected, organizations still need mechanisms that ensure information remains synchronized accurately across multiple systems and business entities.
In environments where work depends on data moving between different tools, enterprises need confidence that information remains consistent and that operational processes continue without disruption.
Francis Martens, Co-founder and CEO of Exalate, emphasized the importance of control within increasingly automated environments.
“Connectivity alone is not enough. The integration keeps speed from turning into chaos as AI enters enterprise workflows.”
Martens also noted that the consequence of failing to manage integration properly as intelligent systems become more active participants in enterprise processes.
The Integration Layer Behind Modern Business Collaboration
Exalate is designed to support granular synchronization across a broad range of business environments. It handles both straightforward tool connections and different scenarios involving multiple systems, organizations, permissions, workflow logic, and data rules.
The company provides real-time, two-way synchronization with local control over data, workflows, permissions, and sync logic. This approach allows departments, external vendors, and business partners to collaborate while maintaining ownership of their own data, workflows, access permissions, security boundaries, and security protocols.
Exalate positions this level of control as increasingly important in enterprise environments where multiple stakeholders interact across separate systems. Rather than requiring all parties to operate within a single environment, this solution enables synchronization while preserving organizational independence.
AI Agents Raise the Stakes for Integration
Exalate states that AI agents are beginning to consume enterprise data, trigger updates, and act across interconnected tool stacks. This development places additional importance on the integration layer that supports those activities.
As AI becomes involved in operational workflows, the requirements extend beyond human collaboration. Organizations need visibility into how information moves, who controls it, where it is sent, and what occurs when systems or workflows change.
Exalate says its solution provides the controlled integration layer required to support the workflows and data exchanges that AI agents depend upon.
Inside Aida: Exalate’s AI Powered Configuration Assistant
In 2026, Exalate introduced a redesigned product experience focused on improving visibility, testing capabilities, versioning, and day to day management controls.
A central component of the release is Aida, a context aware AI layer integrated directly into the configuration workflow. The company describes Aida not as a general purpose AI tool added to the product, but as a purpose built assistant designed specifically for integration management.
Aida enables teams to:
- Plan integrations
- Generate synchronization logic from plain language input
- Interpret errors within context
- Test configuration changes before production deployment
According to Exalate, the objective is to make integration configuration more accessible while preserving the explicit and reviewable logic required for compliance.
Hilde Van Brempt, CFO and Co-founder of Exalate, highlighted the complexity many customers manage across tools, teams, partners, and markets. She stated that organizations need an integration layer capable of keeping pace with those demands while maintaining long term reliability.

Why Integration Infrastructure Sits at the Center of the AI Era
Exalate’s 15-year milestone arrives during a period when enterprises are managing growing complexity across systems, organizations, and digital workflows. The company argues that integration infrastructure now serves a broader role than simply connecting applications.
As AI agents increasingly participate in enterprise operations, organizations face greater demands around synchronization, visibility, and control. Exalate is positioned as an infrastructure that supports those requirements while allowing businesses to maintain ownership of their data, workflows, and operational rules.
The company’s recent growth, product updates, and focus on synchronization reflect a wider emphasis on integration layers that can support collaboration across multiple environments without compromising oversight. For Exalate, the future of enterprise connectivity depends not only on moving data between systems, but on ensuring that movement remains controlled, transparent, and reliable.
