Why use Ceven?

  1. AI native Docparser integration

    • Describe the outcome and Ceven picks the right Docparser calls, fills the parameters, and checks the result.
    • Structured, agent friendly tool schemas so each call runs reliably instead of by guesswork.
    • Rich coverage for reading, writing, and querying your Docparser data, across all 4 of its actions.

  2. Managed auth

    • Built in OAuth with automatic token refresh and rotation.
    • One place to manage, scope, and revoke Docparser access.
    • Per user and per environment credentials instead of shared keys.

  3. Agent optimized design

    • Actions are tuned from real success and error rates so reliability climbs over time.
    • Full execution logs so you always know what ran in Docparser, when, and on whose behalf.
    • The agent pauses and asks when Docparser is unclear instead of plowing ahead.

  4. Enterprise grade security

    • Fine grained access so you control which agents and people can reach Docparser.
    • Least privilege by default, read scopes first and only the writes a workflow needs.
    • A full audit trail of every Docparser action to support review and sign off.

Supported tools

Every action Ceven's agents can run on Docparser, and when to use it.

Get multiple document results
Pull parsed data from a batch of documents processed by a specific parser. Use this to sync multiple invoices or forms at once.
Get parser models
Retrieve all layout configurations for a parser. Use this to identify which model to use for different document versions.
List parsers
Pull a list of all active parsers in the account. Use this to find the correct parser ID for a specific document type.
Ping API
Verify the connection health and API key validity. Use this to check if the Docparser account is active and reachable.
Upload document
Send a PDF or image file to a specific parser for processing. Use this to start the extraction workflow for a new file.
Get document status
Check if a specific document has finished parsing. Use this to poll for results before attempting to read the data.

Frequently asked questions

When Docparser cannot extract data due to a poor scan or unexpected layout, the agent detects the failure state via the API. Instead of letting the workflow crash, Ceven routes the document to a manual review queue. The agent sends a notification to the user with a direct link to the Docparser dashboard where the specific document is held. Once a human corrects the parsing rules or manually enters the missing data in Docparser, the agent detects the update and resumes the workflow. This ensures that no invoice or shipping record is ever lost due to a parsing error, maintaining a complete audit trail for every document processed through the system.
Yes. Ceven can be configured to select a parser model based on specific logic. For example, the agent can look at the sender email address or a keyword in the file name to determine which Docparser model to use. If you have different layouts for vendors in the US versus vendors in Europe, the agent identifies the origin and routes the file to the matching layout configuration. This removes the need for the user to manually assign documents to parsers. The agent handles the API calls to get parser models and matches the document attributes to the correct ID before triggering the upload and extraction process.
Ceven is bound by the specific plan limits of your Docparser account. One critical quirk is that Docparser enforces a monthly document quota based on your subscription tier. If you exceed your monthly limit, the API will return an error and document processing will stop until the next billing cycle or until you upgrade your plan. Ceven monitors these API responses and will alert you when you are approaching your limit. We do not have our own separate quota; we simply act as the orchestrator for the credits you have purchased directly from Docparser to ensure your workflows remain stable.
Ceven does not store the raw PDF files. We act as a secure bridge between Docparser and your destination system. When a document is processed, Ceven retrieves the structured data results and the temporary download URL provided by Docparser. The agent pushes this data to your CRM or ERP and then discards the temporary link. If you need a permanent archive of the original files, we recommend configuring a workflow that pushes the file to a cloud storage provider like Amazon S3 or Google Drive immediately after the parsing step is completed and verified.
Docparser excels at table extraction, and Ceven is designed to handle dynamic arrays of data. When the agent pulls results from a table, it treats the data as a list of objects. Whether an invoice has two line items or two hundred, the agent iterates through every row and maps it to the corresponding entries in your destination system. This is particularly useful for purchase orders where the number of items varies per shipment. The agent ensures that the parent document metadata is attached to every individual row for perfect traceability in your database.
Currently, Ceven focuses on the data extraction and routing side of the process. The creation and fine tuning of parsing rules, such as setting up Zonal OCR or creating regex patterns, must be done within the Docparser web interface. Once you have defined how the data should be extracted and saved the model, Ceven can immediately begin using those rules to process documents. The agent can list your models and check their status, but the actual logic of how a document is sliced and diced remains managed inside the Docparser environment for maximum precision.
All communication between Ceven and Docparser happens over encrypted HTTPS connections. We use the API key provided in your account settings to authenticate requests. These keys are stored using industry standard encryption at rest and are never exposed in plain text within your workflows. Because Docparser is a cloud based service, the documents are processed on their secure infrastructure. Ceven only sees the data that the parser is configured to extract, meaning you can limit the scope of data the agent handles by only defining the necessary parsing rules in your Docparser account.
There is a short processing window while Docparser performs the OCR and applies your parsing rules. Depending on the document size and complexity, this can take from a few seconds to a minute. Ceven handles this asynchronously. Instead of hanging the workflow, the agent can be set to poll the document status at intervals or wait for a webhook notification. Once Docparser marks the document as processed, Ceven immediately triggers the next step in the workflow. This ensures that your automation remains efficient without timing out during the heavy lifting of the OCR process.
