Ceven vs Proxy

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.

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.

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.

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.

Teams often seek alternatives to Proxy because they need to automate more than just browser-based tasks. While Proxy excels at navigating websites and completing multi-step online processes, many users find they still need to stitch together multiple tools to handle everything from data collection to decision-making. This can create complexity and fragmentation in workflows, making it harder to maintain visibility and control.

Ceven offers a comprehensive alternative that goes beyond web automation. As an AI workflow automation platform, Ceven acts as a single operator that connects to 1,000+ tools, running end-to-end processes with both AI steps and human-approval gates. You can even build and host no-code apps directly within the platform. Best of all, Ceven is free to start with no credit card required, making it an accessible solution for teams looking to streamline their operations without adding unnecessary complexity.
