Ayven is an AI control centre by Alknoma that turns a plain-language goal into a dated plan, hands the work to your people and AI agents, and asks for your approval only when the call is yours.
About Ayven
What Is Ayven
Ayven is a workspace agent that plans work and then drives it. You describe an outcome in ordinary words, such as running a partner summit or starting a paid newsletter. Ayven researches the subject, splits it into tasks, assigns each task to a person or an AI agent, and puts every piece on the day it belongs.
The difference from a chatbot is what happens after the first reply. Ayven reads your connected tools, watches ticket statuses and answers, moves stalled items to their next stage, and follows up with whoever owes the next step. When a decision needs a human, it sends a push notification to your phone or desktop and waits.
Alknoma Ltd, a UK company, builds the product. Ayven is SOC 2 Type II certified and GDPR compliant, and the company says customer data is not used to train models. The main limit is scope: Ayven works through the tools you connect, so a team that keeps its work in email and spreadsheets gets much less from it than a team already running on Slack, Jira, or Notion.
Getting Started
- Create a workspace at ayven.ai. The Free plan needs no credit card and includes 500 credits a month.
- Connect the tools Ayven may read and act in, such as Slack, Microsoft Teams, Google Drive, Notion, Jira, YouTrack, or Asana. Access is granted through official APIs and OAuth, and setup takes about 10 to 15 minutes.
- Set the autonomy level. Routine work can run without a check, while external documents and high-priority tickets wait for your approval.
- Describe the goal, or start from a mission template. Ayven returns a plan with owners and dates within a few hours.
- Review the plan, answer the open questions, and let Ayven carry the work forward. Each finished run uses one credit on the Free plan.

Key features
Mission Planning from a Plain Sentence
You give Ayven an outcome the way you would tell a colleague. It researches the subject, works out the steps and the figures, and returns a schedule with owners and dates. A newsletter launch, for example, comes back as research tonight, a format choice on Tuesday, an outline for the writing agent, and a sign-up check every Monday.
Delegation to People and AI Agents
Ayven assigns work to teammates and to agents you register under Team Access. A registered agent gets a ticket and a signed webhook when the ticket moves to In Progress, then reports back over MCP or the HTTP API. Moves the agent makes still wait for approval, so a bad run cannot change your board on its own.
Approval and Question Routing
The approval list collects everything waiting on you: ticket drafts, status changes, documents, and questions from people. You can approve or answer a batch in one pass instead of opening each thread. Items that fall inside the rules you set move forward without asking.
Work Inside Your Existing Tools
Ayven connects to Slack, Microsoft Teams, Google Drive, Notion, Jira, YouTrack, and Asana through official APIs. It respects the permissions of each connected account, so a restricted Drive folder stays closed until someone authorises it. SharePoint, OneDrive, and Monday.com are listed as coming soon.
MCP Client for Claude and Other AI Tools
Ayven runs as an MCP client, which means you can open it inside Claude or another assistant that speaks MCP. Ask what your team is waiting on you for, and the assistant pulls the answers through Ayven rather than making you switch tabs.
Slots, Credits, and Autonomy Controls
Autonomous slots run background work such as monitoring and scheduled checks. Interactive slots handle direct messages in the web app, over the API, or in Slack and Teams. The Free plan includes one of each and 500 credits a month; Standard and Premium remove the credit count and add more concurrent slots.
Pros and cons
Pros
- It follows work to completion instead of stopping at an answer, which removes the manual chasing that usually sits with a project manager.
- Team members are included in every plan, so cost tracks execution capacity rather than headcount.
- All integrations are available on the Free plan, with no add-on fees or integration tiers.
- Registered agents can be any tool you run, and they report back through MCP or a documented HTTP API.
- SOC 2 Type II, GDPR compliance, TLS 1.3, and AES-256 encryption cover the questions security reviews usually ask.
Cons
- There is no dedicated mobile app, so phone access depends on a mobile browser, Slack, or Teams.
- Every finished run costs a credit on the Free plan, and work pauses when the monthly allowance runs out.
- The value depends on connecting your tools. A team that lives in email will see little of what Ayven does.
- The efficiency figures come from Alknoma's own study of one five-person team, and no independent benchmark is published.
