Peripheral systems keep your business running smoothly

They rely on accurate, up-to-date data from ServiceNow to do their job.
The Old Way: Complex & Costly
Native ServiceNow integrations require custom development, specialized know-how, and ongoing maintenance. Costs rise, timelines slip, and valuable teams end up maintaining plumbing instead of delivering business value. Getting data out of ServiceNow in the format your systems need should not be this hard.
Squid Changes the Game
From tangled scripts and scope creep to fast, repeatable, and low-maintenance integrations. Squid deploys in under 90 minutes and runs on your ServiceNow instance, delivering structured JSON through a single API request—pulling all related data without scripting or multiple calls.

Squid is your Peripheral Systems Data-Integration Superpower.

Make Your Data Flow As Fast As Your Ambition

Instead of chaining multiple Table API calls, resolving references manually, and assembling partial responses in code, Squid lets you define what data you need once. Entities, relationships, structure and delivers it in a single, fully resolved JSON response. All joins, reference resolution, aggregation, and formatting happen server-side, upgrade-safe and reusable. The result is lower latency, predictable performance at scale, and integrations that are faster to build, easier to maintain, and reliable in production Read how it works.

Describe the data you need in plain language and Squid’s AI suggests a request based on your ServiceNow data model. You can review, adjust, and run it immediately.

Here’s how it works: "create a request that returns all linux servers."

About Squid

our-story

Squid was born inside a large, real-world ServiceNow implementation, where an increasing number of peripheral systems depended on ServiceNow data to operate smoothly. A clear pattern emerged: while the data existed, delivering it fast, reliably, and at scale required growing amounts of custom integration work.

This integration layer started to look like a bottleneck. Initial scoping showed that a traditional TableAPI approach would have required a major effort both for the ServiceNow team as well as the peripheral systems.

Squid was created to solve this problem once and for all.

In large ServiceNow environments, data runs deep, spanning many domains and supporting critical operational and analytical use cases. Squid provides a stable, configuration-based way to reach into this depth, resolve relationships across data domains, and deliver a single, coherent result to downstream systems. It is in production today, operating reliably at scale.

The name reflects its role. Like a squid navigating deep waters, Squid operates in complex environments, its tentacles reaching across tables and relationships to intelligently assemble what belongs together-without disturbing the system at the center. Today, Squid enables wider system landscapes to work smoothly, predictably, and at scale, delivering ServiceNow data in the format downstream systems actually need.

Still have questions?

Not at all. Squid abstracts the complexity, so you don’t have to deal with sys_ids, reference joins, or table relationships. Choose a config, make one call, and get everything you need.

Under 90 minutes. Install Squid from the ServiceNow Store, apply a config, and start pulling structured data immediately. No infrastructure. No external endpoints. No surprises.

Yes. Squid is fully configurable. You can extend any existing configuration or build your own to match your data model - including scoped apps, extended tables, and custom references.

Structured, nested JSON. Exactly how modern systems, analytics tools, ETLs, APIs, or UI layers want to consume data. No more flattening or post-processing required.

Nothing breaks. Squid is upgrade-safe by design. Since it runs entirely inside your ServiceNow instance and avoids fragile scripts, it stays stable across releases.

Yes. Squid operates natively within your ServiceNow environment. It respects all access controls, roles, and ACLs. There are no external data flows or third-party endpoints to manage.

Because it was built where the work happens - inside real projects, not marketing decks. It’s already successfully live at Swiss Post and certified in the ServiceNow Store.

It changes the game. What used to take weeks of custom code now takes hours of configuration. That means faster delivery, predictable effort, and dramatically lower cost - whether you’re quoting a client or managing internal budgets.

Squid is licensed based on the total amount of entities retrieved and returned in one call. Every entity - regardless of where in the JSON it is rendered - counts as a retrieved entity. See the pricing page for more information: https://docs.arc46.io/squid/product/pricing
