Why teams connect Autopilot and DEAR Inventory
Ground Autopilot on the customers, suppliers, items, and transactions that live in DEAR Inventory, and write the classifications, scores, and extracted fields Autopilot produces back onto those records in real time.
An AI system does not keep customers, orders, or invoices the way an ERP does. What it keeps is derived: the vectors and metadata in a store, or the classifications, extracted fields, and generated text a model produces over records it was handed. DEAR Inventory is where those source records actually live, across finance, operations, procurement, and inventory, and that data usually stays behind a strict API with many record types. Whatever Autopilot produces, whether a category, a risk flag, an extracted value, or an embedding, only earns its keep when it lands back on the record in DEAR Inventory where the business is run.
Stacksync connects Contacts, Lists, Custom Fields, Smart Segments in Autopilot with Sale orders, Purchase orders, Customers, Suppliers in DEAR Inventory and keeps the two sides in sync in real time. Sale orders, Purchase orders, Customers, Suppliers from DEAR Inventory replicate into Autopilot continuously, so retrieval, classification, and reasoning run against current ERP records instead of last night's extract, and the fields Autopilot generates sync back onto the matching record in DEAR Inventory. Mapping is field-level, matching is on identifiers you choose, and Stacksync handles the ERP's API limits and schema drift, so there is no extraction pipeline to build or babysit.
Because every AI-side item carries the key of the record it came from, results always resolve to the right customer, supplier, or transaction. Autopilot reasons over the business as it actually is within seconds of a change, and the people running operations act on model output where they already work, without exporting a file or logging into a second system.
Common use cases
- 01 Add contacts to a Journey from a database event or CRM stage change to start automated onboarding or nurture sequences.
- 02 Mirror List and Smart Segment membership into a warehouse to power attribution and audience analytics alongside other sources.
- 03 Land orders, costs, and inventory movements in a warehouse for margin and stock-turn reporting.
- 04 Keep supplier and purchase order data aligned with the accounting system for accrual accuracy.
Common sync patterns
Document extraction round-trip
Purchase orders, invoices, or other documents flow from DEAR Inventory into Autopilot for parsing or classification, and the structured result returns to the record it came from.
ERP records as live context
Customers, suppliers, items, and transactions from DEAR Inventory replicate into Autopilot as they change, so search, retrieval, and reasoning run against current records rather than a periodic extract.
Derived fields back on the record
Categories, scores, or extracted values produced in Autopilot sync onto the matching record in DEAR Inventory, where operations and finance teams see and act on them without leaving the ERP.
What you can sync between Autopilot and DEAR Inventory
Representative objects on each side — any object or custom field can map to any target. Schemas are auto-detected; types are converted between the two systems.
| Autopilot objects | DEAR Inventory objects | How this pairing syncs | |
|---|---|---|---|
| Journeys (Triggers) Automation journeys; a contact can be added to a journey via its trigger endpoint to start automated email or SMS sequences. | Locations Warehouses and bins that scope stock levels and fulfillment. | Journeys (Triggers) is specific to Autopilot and Locations to DEAR Inventory — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side. | |
| Activities Per-contact activity and event history (opens, clicks, journey steps); read-only feed used for engagement reporting. | Products SKU records with pricing, suppliers, and bill-of-material links; the master data most syncs start from. | Activities is specific to Autopilot and Products to DEAR Inventory — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side. | |
| Contacts Core people records (email, name, custom fields, list and segment membership); upserted two-way as the primary sync object. | Stock levels Per-location availability derived from inventory transactions; read-heavy in storefront syncs. | Contacts is specific to Autopilot and Stock levels to DEAR Inventory — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side. | |
| Lists Static contact lists; membership is readable per list and writable by adding or removing contacts. | Sale orders Customer orders through their pick/pack/ship lifecycle; synced with storefronts and CRMs. | Lists is specific to Autopilot and Sale orders to DEAR Inventory — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side. | |
| Custom Fields User-defined contact properties (string, number, date, boolean); discovered so field keys map cleanly to destination columns. | Purchase orders Supplier orders and receiving records synced with accounting and planning tools. | Custom Fields is specific to Autopilot and Purchase orders to DEAR Inventory — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side. | |
| Smart Segments Rule-based dynamic audiences; membership is computed by Autopilot, so it is read-only over the API. | Customers Buyer records aligned with CRM and accounting counterparts. | Smart Segments is specific to Autopilot and Customers to DEAR Inventory — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side. |
How changes propagate between Autopilot and DEAR Inventory
Each direction of the sync is driven by what the source system can signal and what the destination accepts — detection, delivery, and expected latency below.
Autopilot DEAR Inventory Interval-based propagation
DetectionStacksync polls Autopilot for changes on an incremental schedule, reading only records changed since the previous pass. No CDC.
DeliveryEach detected change is written to DEAR Inventory through its API, with automatic retries and rate-limit backoff.
DEAR Inventory Autopilot Sub-second propagation
DetectionDEAR Inventory notifies Stacksync of record changes through webhook events. Polling with modified-since filters.
DeliveryEach detected change is written to Autopilot through its API, with automatic retries and rate-limit backoff.
Rate-limit considerations
- Autopilot: The REST API is capped at 100 requests/minute per account; exceeding it returns HTTP 429. Enterprise plans can request a higher limit. Contact writes accept an array for bulk upsert, and list and segment reads paginate via a bookmark cursor.
- DEAR Inventory: Subject to the platform's per-account API rate limits.

How the Autopilot and DEAR Inventory connectors work
Autopilot
- Integration surface
- REST API (Autopilot v1); Autopilot rebranded to Ortto in 2021 and the newer Ortto API co-exists with the legacy Autopilot endpoints
- Authentication
- Per-account API key sent in the autopilotapikey request header (generated in account settings); requests use Content-Type application/json against https://api2.autopilothq.com/v1/
- Change detection
- No CDC; incremental sync polls the /contacts endpoint with bookmark cursor pagination and updated timestamps. Journey webhook actions can push specific contact events, but there is no general change-subscription webhook, so polling is the reliable path.

FAQ
Autopilot and DEAR Inventory integration FAQ
-
Yes. Stacksync provides a managed, real-time two-way integration between Autopilot and DEAR Inventory: authenticate both systems, choose the objects to sync (such as Autopilot's Journeys (Triggers) and Activities), map fields visually, and changes propagate both ways in milliseconds — no code required.
-
Autopilot: Contacts are upserted by email, and custom fields are user-defined, so field keys must be discovered before mapping them to destination columns. DEAR Inventory: DEAR Systems was acquired by Cin7 and the product now operates as Cin7 Core; the API and data model carried over from DEAR. Stacksync's field mapping accounts for these differences between Autopilot and DEAR Inventory without custom code.
-
Stacksync is SOC 2 Type II and ISO 27001 certified with HIPAA BAA support. Data is encrypted in transit, and a zero-persistent-storage architecture means Autopilot and DEAR Inventory records are not retained after a sync operation.
-
Stacksync pricing is usage-based and starts at $1,000/month, including the managed Autopilot and DEAR Inventory connectors, real-time two-way sync, monitoring, and support. That replaces building and maintaining a custom Autopilot–DEAR Inventory integration in-house.
-
Yes — Stacksync ships production-grade connectors for both Autopilot and DEAR Inventory. The connectors handle authentication, schema detection, rate limits, and retries; you configure the sync, and Stacksync operates it.
-
Change detection on Autopilot: No CDC; incremental sync polls the /contacts endpoint with bookmark cursor pagination and updated timestamps. Journey webhook actions can push specific contact events, but there is no general change-subscription webhook, so polling is the reliable path. On DEAR Inventory: Polling with modified-since filters; webhook notifications for sale and purchase events are available on subscriptions that include the Automation module. Each detected change propagates to the other side in milliseconds, with field-level conflict resolution and an inspectable event log.
