Rhythm Systems
Add Rhythm Systems to your product for your customers, and give your AI agents governed access to it.
Rhythm Systems is strategy execution software for mid-market companies: a plan holds priorities with owners and success criteria, KPIs with targets and actuals, and a weekly status that is red, yellow or green. The weekly rhythm is the whole method, and it is also where the manual work sits, because somebody updates numbers by hand before every meeting. Rhythm exposes a REST API with OAuth 2, which is what lets those numbers come from the system that already calculated them. The mapping is per customer by nature: a plan's structure, its KPI definitions and what a company counts as success are exactly the things no two companies share, so they are configuration rather than something a connector can assume. fastn owns the auth and API upkeep.
In your product
Embedded for your customers. Per-tenant auth, no per-customer code, maintained by fastn.
Let each customer connect their own Rhythm account so the KPI actuals your product already calculates land on their plan rather than in a spreadsheet.
Update a priority's status and its weekly colour from your product, so a meeting starts from current numbers.
Read priorities and their owners so your product can show what a team actually committed to this quarter.
Map each customer's own plan structure and KPI definitions, since no two companies measure the same things.
For your AI agents
Governed, audited access for the agents you build, through the MCP server.
An agent reports which priorities went red this week and what their owners said about them.
An agent writes a KPI actual within scoped permissions, with the value and its source logged.
An agent summarises a quarter's plan progress ahead of a leadership session.
Example prompt
Which priorities are red or yellow this week, and which KPIs are behind target?
Set up Rhythm Systems in 4 steps
- 01Enable the Rhythm Systems connector in your fastn dashboard.
- 02Have each customer authorise their own Rhythm account so updates are written under their credentials.
- 03Map their plan structure, priorities, owners and KPI definitions, then enable the actions and triggers you need.
- 04Call it from your product and expose the same connection to your agents through the MCP gateway.
Why teams use the Rhythm Systems integration
What you get by embedding it with fastn instead of building it yourself.
- Ship a Rhythm Systems integration without building it. Your customers connect their own Rhythm Systems account inside your product and work their work items, assignees and due dates there, with no per-customer code on your side.
- Handle the part that actually costs time: every team configures its own fields, statuses and workflow stages. fastn owns the auth, token refresh, rate limits, pagination and breaking-change fixes, so a Rhythm Systems update is not your on-call problem.
- One integration serves your product and your agents. The same governed Rhythm Systems connection powers in-product features and gives AI agents scoped, audited access, so you keep work items in step with what happens in your product without wiring it twice.

How do I add a Rhythm Systems integration to my product?
Enable the Rhythm Systems connector in your fastn dashboard, then let each customer authenticate their own Rhythm Systems account. fastn handles the OAuth flow, token storage and refresh per tenant, so there is no Rhythm Systems client code in your app and no per-customer branch in your codebase. Setup is 4 steps.
Do my customers each connect their own Rhythm Systems account?
Yes. Every connection is scoped to the individual customer, so each authorises their own Rhythm Systems account and only ever sees their own work items, assignees and due dates. That per-tenant isolation is the point of an embedded integration: you support the long tail of customer setups without maintaining an integration per customer.
Can AI agents use this Rhythm Systems integration?
Yes. The same connection is exposed to your agents through the fastn MCP gateway, with permissions scoped per tenant and every call audited. An agent reports which priorities went red this week and what their owners said about them.
Who maintains the Rhythm Systems integration?
fastn does. When Rhythm Systems changes an endpoint, deprecates a field or alters its auth, the fix lands in the connector rather than in your backlog, and your customers' connections keep working.
Can my product create and update work in Rhythm Systems automatically?
Yes. Items can be created, updated, assigned and transitioned from your product, and changes made in Rhythm Systems can trigger your workflows in return.
Does it adapt to each team's own Rhythm Systems setup?
Yes. However a team has configured Rhythm Systems, whether that is custom fields, statuses and workflow stages or its own calendars and working hours, those are mapped per customer, so an unusual setup works without custom code from you.
What can I build with the Rhythm Systems integration?
A common starting point: let each customer connect their own Rhythm account so the KPI actuals your product already calculates land on their plan rather than in a spreadsheet. Teams also use it for the other use cases listed above, and expose it to agents for governed reads and writes.
How much does the Rhythm Systems integration cost?
It is included. Pricing is based on connected accounts, not on how many connectors you enable, so adding Rhythm Systems does not change your per-connector cost. You can start free with 3 connected accounts.
