Convey.

"Meet your new teammate." AI workers that take the operational grind off your plate - no engineers required.

A lowercase "c" and a single period. The whole pitch is in the punctuation: this is meant to feel less like software you configure and more like a coworker you onboard.

The Story

The company that noticed your best people are clicking buttons

There is a peculiar fact about the modern enterprise that everyone quietly tolerates: some of the most capable, expensive, hard-to-hire people in a company spend two or three hours a day doing work a piece of software should have eaten a decade ago. They copy numbers from one system into another. They reconcile a spreadsheet against an invoice. They pull the same campaign report every Monday. It keeps the business running. It is also, to use the technical term, mind-numbing.

Convey's entire reason for existing is that observation, plus a bet about what to do with it. The bet is not "build a smarter chatbot." It's "build the coworker." Where an AI assistant helps one person move faster, Convey builds what it calls digital teammates - AI workers that take ownership of whole categories of operational work and actually complete it, running inside your real systems, asking for a human when they hit something they shouldn't decide alone.

It's a distinction that sounds like marketing until you look at the number the company keeps repeating: more than one million hours of work already done. Not pilots. Not demos. Hours. That is the sort of figure that either means something or is an accounting trick, and Convey's customers - NBCUniversal, Unity, Samsara, TelevisaUnivision, ChargePoint, Faire - are not typically in the business of buying accounting tricks.

How It Works

You teach it. You don't code it.

The onboarding is the interesting part, because it's aimed squarely at the person who knows the work and cannot code. You share your screen and walk through a process, or you describe it. The system watches, learns the task, gathers the context, and - here's the part that matters for anyone who has watched an AI demo fall apart in production - it compiles what it learned into a versioned, testable program rather than firing a fresh, hopeful prompt every single run.

From there the teammate operates across the tools a real operations team lives in: Salesforce, NetSuite, campaign managers, ERPs. It processes invoices, reconciles financial data, assembles campaign reporting, ingests advertising assets at scale. When it's unsure, it raises a hand rather than guessing - which is the whole reason a large enterprise will let it anywhere near production in the first place.

Your best people spend two or three hours a day clicking buttons. It keeps the business running, but it's rote, repetitive work.
- Rohan Chopra, Co-founder & CEO
Train

Show, don't build

Non-technical operators onboard a teammate by sharing a screen or describing the workflow. No sprint, no ticket, no handoff to engineering.

Deploy

Run across real systems

Teammates act inside Salesforce, NetSuite, ERPs and more - with role-based access controls and their own agent identity.

Oversee

Autonomy, with a hand up

They run unsupervised until they hit something they shouldn't decide alone - then a human steps in. Every action is logged.

The Unglamorous Moat

The guardrails are the product

Everyone is shipping AI agents in 2026. Far fewer are shipping agents that survive contact with a real enterprise - the part where legal, security and compliance get a vote.

Convey's answer is to treat the boring safeguards as the actual product. The platform ships with SOC 2 Type II and HIPAA compliance, zero data retention with its model providers, secrets management, audit logs, agent identity, and on-premise deployment for the customers who need it. None of this is fun to put on a landing page. All of it is why a company like NBCUniversal will hand over a production workflow.

Convey saved my company. I haven't been able to hire anyone to do this work reliably and was drowning.
- Andrew Neva, VP of Operations

The Founders

Three friends who waited a decade for the timing

The origin story is refreshingly free of a garage myth. Rohan Chopra, Will Harvey and Diego Canales have been best friends since Stanford. Chopra spent eight years at DoorDash, joining as an early engineer and leaving from the leadership team of a 10,000-person company, watching the same busywork pattern repeat in every enterprise he met. Harvey and Diego sold their previous company to project44. Around 2025 the timing finally lined up, and they built the thing together.
