Why use Ceven?

  1. AI native Scale ai integration

    • Describe the outcome and Ceven picks the right Scale ai 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 Scale ai data, across all 40 of its actions.
  2. Managed auth

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

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

Frequently asked questions

Ceven manages large datasets by leveraging the Import File action, which allows the agent to point Scale AI toward remote URL endpoints rather than uploading files directly through the workflow. This prevents memory timeouts and ensures that your raw data stays in your own cloud storage until Scale needs it. The agent can loop through a list of thousands of URLs and create individual tasks for each one, grouping them into batches to keep your workspace organized. By using paginated list calls, Ceven can track the progress of massive projects without hitting payload limits or crashing the workflow context during retrieval.
Yes. Ceven can be configured to pull task results and cross reference them against your internal gold standard datasets. By using the Get Task and Get Fixless Audits actions, the agent can identify tasks with low confidence scores or high disagreement rates between labelers. Once a problematic task is found, Ceven can automatically add a specific tag to that task for manual review or move it into a new batch for a second pass by a senior annotator. This creates a closed loop quality system where the agent handles the filtering and only humans perform the final audit.
Ceven simplifies team management by using the Invite Team Member and Studio Assignment actions. You can create a workflow that triggers every time a new contractor is added to your HR system, which then automatically sends a Scale AI invite with the correct role. Once the user accepts, the agent can assign them to specific projects based on their expertise. This removes the need for a manager to manually navigate the Scale Studio dashboard to provision access, ensuring that your labeling workforce is onboarded and assigned to active tasks in minutes rather than days.
Absolutely. Ceven has dedicated actions for Lidar and video annotation. For Lidar projects, the agent can create tasks that require 3D cuboid marking or semantic point cloud segmentation. Because Lidar response data is often too large for a standard JSON response, Ceven specifically uses the Get Secure Task Response URL action to fetch the actual coordinates and labels from Scale AI secure storage. This allows the agent to move high fidelity 3D labels into your training pipeline without losing precision or encountering API response size limits.
Project ontologies define the classes your model needs to recognize, such as car, pedestrian, or stop sign. Ceven can programmatically update these via the Set Project Ontology action. This is useful when you are iterating on a model and realize you need to split one class into two more specific categories. The agent can update the ontology across multiple projects simultaneously and then tag all existing tasks that used the old class, signaling to the labeling team that those specific tasks need to be revisited and updated to match the new schema.
One critical quirk is that certain actions, like finalizing a batch, behave differently depending on your account tier. For Scale Rapid and Studio customers, finalizing is a required step before workers can see tasks, but for other customer types, the API returns a success message without actually performing a state change. Ceven handles this by checking your account type in the project metadata first. Additionally, users must be aware of Scale AI API rate limits on task creation; if you attempt to create ten thousand tasks in a single burst, the API may throttle requests. Ceven manages this by implementing an internal queue and exponential backoff.
Yes. Ceven can be the bridge between Scale AI and tools like Snowflake or BigQuery. The agent can be scheduled to poll for completed tasks every hour, retrieve the final labels and metadata, and then write those records into your warehouse. This allows your data scientists to run SQL queries over the labeling progress and accuracy metrics without ever leaving their data environment. You can also trigger a Scale AI task creation directly from a row update in your database, creating a truly automated data labeling pipeline.
Ceven prevents tag clutter by using the Add Task Tags action, which is designed to avoid duplicate tags on a single task. Beyond that, you can build a cleanup workflow where the agent periodically lists all tasks with a specific tag and removes it using the Delete Task Tags action once the task has moved to a certain stage of the pipeline. For example, once a task is moved from the review batch to the final training set, Ceven can strip the review tag to ensure that your filters only show tasks that actually require attention.
