PHOENIX — Aug. 19, 2026 — Blackwire Designs, a leading distributor in the custom installation and Pro AV markets, is now natively supported inside D-Tools Cloud following the software provider’s major Release #100. The live integration went active automatically with the release, allowing shared dealers to access their specific pricing and catalog updates directly within the D-Tools platform.
Typical distributor data feeds only sync once a month, which leaves integrators with out-of-date information and misses newly launched products for weeks at a time. In contrast, the Blackwire integration is completely live and real-time, providing the most accurate pricing available. When Blackwire adds a new item to the website or offers a promotion, that data is pulled into D-Tools Cloud instantly. This real-time synchronization ensures that integrators can maximize their margins and immediately apply those savings to quotes without waiting for the next update cycle.
“We want to make running an integration business simpler, and that starts with giving dealers real-time data,” said Cody Crossland, VP of Sales, Blackwire Designs. “Waiting up to a month for a catalog sync means dealers miss out on quoting new products or lose out on limited-time promotions. With D-Tools activating this live integration in their latest update, if we add an item or launch a deal on our site today, our dealers can quote it in D-Tools instantly.”
The integration fits right into the newly updated D-Tools Cloud platform, which features 66 new enhancements spanning drawings, inventory, and sales forecasting. Because pricing updates dynamically, dealers can utilize D-Tools’ new interconnect diagrams and project lifecycle tools with the confidence that their product costs are 100% accurate.
“We’re focused on making life easier for integrators, and that starts with removing friction from the quoting process,” said Barrie McCorkle, Director of Business Development of D-Tools. “By integrating Blackwire’s live pricing into D-Tools Cloud Release #100, we’re giving dealers the confidence that the numbers they’re quoting are always accurate. It’s all about helping them spend less time chasing data and more time delivering great projects.”
This native integration is another way Blackwire continues to make the day-to-day operations for integrators easier. Beyond providing real-time data syncs, Blackwire operates as a true value-add partner by offering complimentary engineering support, bench-testing catalog gear for field reliability, and providing free pre-configuration for networking and Video over IP projects to ensure true plug-and-play deployments.
The live integration is active and available now to all authorized Blackwire dealers subscribing to D-Tools Cloud.
