Ceven vs Proxy
Proxy by Convergence is an autonomous web agent that navigates sites and completes multi-step online tasks. Ceven is an operator built around your stack — persistent connections to 1,000+ tools, scheduled workflows, approval gates, and build-and-host apps — not a general one-off task agent.
What Proxy does well
Proxy is a capable general AI agent. It completes multi-step tasks autonomously — researching, browsing, and producing output — so you can hand it a goal and get a result. For one-off autonomous tasks and research, it is genuinely useful.
Where Proxy stops
Proxy is a general task agent. It is not wired into your business stack with persistent connections to 1,000+ tools, recurring scheduled workflows, and team approval gates, and it does not build and host apps on your domain. It does a task; it does not run the operation.
What Ceven does that Proxy doesn't
Ceven is an operator built around your stack: persistent connections to 1,000+ tools, workflows you schedule and approve, execution across Slack, SMS, and the web, and build-and-host no-code pages and apps. It does not just complete a task — it runs the recurring work and keeps doing it.
When Proxy is the right call
For one-off autonomous tasks and research, Proxy is handy. Ceven is the right call when you want a durable operator connected to your tools that runs recurring work on a schedule.
