Integrate Existing Business Software

Integrate Existing Business Software
Section titled “Integrate Existing Business Software”OPTEROM is intended to be useful even if the business never opens an OPTEROM website.
An accounting platform, procurement application or industry-specific service might need an answer to a narrow question: Is this the correct legal entity? Who signed this statement? May we treat this order as authorized? What changed since the last verification?
That developer should be able to use a well-defined OPTEROM capability instead of adopting another user interface.
Possible integrations
Section titled “Possible integrations”| Application | OPTEROM capability it could consume |
|---|---|
| Procurement platform | Verify sender and recipient company identities; check authorized quotations and orders |
| Accounting/ERP | Identify the legal company behind a document and inspect the evidence of an accepted business action |
| Industry directory | Display source-backed company information and clearly separate company-declared content |
| Company website/CMS | Provide a verifiable origin for a company-authorized product or public statement |
| AI agent | Retrieve machine-readable company facts and evidence with explicit provenance and permitted action scopes |
| Supply-chain application | Attach identifiable business issuers and signed event provenance to a supplier or logistics record |
Participation should not require a special installation
Section titled “Participation should not require a special installation”The preferred developer entry point is a documented network API and independently verifiable signed evidence, not a requirement to run network nodes, replace databases or buy a cryptocurrency.
For externally committed business actions, the software must still establish appropriate company authority and consent. An API token issued to a software developer does not automatically authorize that developer to place orders for other companies.
How we will make this concrete
Section titled “How we will make this concrete”The first proposed developer proof is an external app verifying a signed business message and source-backed company identity without a first-party OPTEROM UI.
