Overview
Hotglue is a developer-focused embedded iPaaS / ETL platform for shipping native SaaS integrations. It gives product and engineering teams a white-labeled widget and Magic Link, a code-first Python/JavaScript transformation layer, and a large open-source connector catalog while keeping customer data in the customer’s cloud rather than storing it on hotglue.
