Malleable vs. Parabola

Prowork by Parabola turns finance and operations data work into flows that run the same way every time. Malleable follows your team's steps too, but an AI agent runs each operation and brings people in along the way.

In common: Both let operations teams describe recurring work in plain English and see the steps it turns into.

The main difference

Where do people come in?

Parabola

Prowork runs data steps the same way every time. People review the exceptions at the end.

Malleable

Partway through, whenever a decision is theirs. Malleable sends the right person a form for that decision.

Side by side

How they compare

Each row is something you can check in a demo, or in the other tool's docs.

Fixed steps and AI judgment
Parabola
Fixed data steps. AI steps help, but the flow decides what happens next.
Malleable
An AI agent runs the whole operation and works out cases nobody planned for. Your team locks the steps that must run the same way every time.
Bringing in a person
Parabola
People review the results after the flow. Nobody can answer partway through.
Malleable
Malleable sends them a short form with the context, then waits for their answer.
People outside your company
Parabola
Invited people can only view a shared result.
Malleable
Anyone can answer from a secure link, with no account.

When to choose Malleable

  • The work crosses teams and waits on people, inside or outside your company.
  • The same work comes up again and again, and parts of it need judgment.
  • The people who run it need to change it themselves.
