Why use Ceven?

  1. AI native Openperplex integration

    • Describe the outcome and Ceven picks the right Openperplex 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 Openperplex data, across all 8 of its actions.

  2. Managed auth

    • Built in OAuth with automatic token refresh and rotation.
    • One place to manage, scope, and revoke Openperplex 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 Openperplex, when, and on whose behalf.
    • The agent pauses and asks when Openperplex is unclear instead of plowing ahead.

  4. Enterprise grade security

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

Frequently asked questions

Openperplex uses a headless browser environment to render pages before extraction. This means that when you use the Get Website Markdown or Get Website Text tools, the agent is seeing the page after the JavaScript has executed. This is critical for modern single page applications built with React or Vue that would appear empty to a basic HTML crawler. The agent waits for the primary DOM content to load, ensuring that the data you pull into your Ceven workflow is the same data a human user would see in a standard browser session.
Rate limits depend on your specific Openperplex tier. Most starter tiers have a request per minute cap that can be hit during large batch workflows. If you trigger a Ceven loop that searches a hundred terms in a few seconds, you may encounter a 429 error. To avoid this, we recommend using the Custom Search tool with a small delay between calls. For high volume enterprise needs, you should upgrade your Openperplex plan to increase the concurrency limits so your agents can run broad research tasks without interruption.
No. Openperplex respects robots.txt files and standard web access protocols. If a website requires a login or has a hard paywall that prevents public access, the Get Website Text tool will likely return the login page or a subscription prompt. The tool is designed for publicly accessible web content. If you need to access private data, you must use a different integration that supports authenticated API access to that specific platform rather than a general web scraper.
Search is a global operation. It looks across the entire indexed web to find relevant pages based on your keywords. Query from URL is a targeted operation. It ignores the rest of the web and focuses exclusively on the content of one specific link. Use Search when you do not know where the answer is and use Query from URL when you have the exact source and want the agent to extract a specific fact or summarize a long piece of text.
Yes. The Get Website Markdown tool is optimized to convert HTML tables into GFM tables. This is particularly useful for finance workflows where you need to pull pricing grids or specification tables from a product page and move them into a spreadsheet. The agent preserves the row and column structure, allowing the LLM to reason about the data numerically. If the table is rendered via complex canvas elements, however, the screenshot tool is the better option for visual verification.
Streaming search uses a server sent events model. Instead of waiting for the entire web search to complete and for the API to return a final JSON array, the results are pushed to the Ceven agent as they are discovered. This significantly reduces the perceived latency. For the user, this means the AI can start drafting its answer based on the first two results while the third and fourth results are still being fetched in the background, creating a much more fluid experience.
Yes. Unlike some AI models that rely on a training cutoff, Openperplex performs a live fetch of the web. When you trigger a search or a page extraction, the system hits the live web to retrieve the most current version of that page. This makes it ideal for monitoring stock prices, news events, or software version releases where information changes by the hour. Your agent is always working with the most recent data available on the public internet.
Yes. The Custom Search tool allows you to pass filters that restrict results to specific domains or exclude certain sites. This is useful when you only trust high authority sources like government sites or official documentation. By narrowing the search scope, you reduce the noise in the results and decrease the number of tokens the agent needs to process, which leads to faster response times and more accurate summaries in your final output.
