Where Llev wins

Why teams choose Llev over Dust.

A hire, not a toolkit

Dust is a platform you operate — someone has to build and maintain the agents. Llev arrives already trained, so there’s nothing to assemble.

A graph brain, not just search

Dust does semantic search over your knowledge. Llev builds a graph that links entities, history and decisions for sharper, connected recall.

Proactive by default

Llev spots the work and does it. With Dust, proactivity is something your operators design into each workflow.

In fairness, what Dust is good at

Dust is an excellent EU-built platform if you have an “AI operator” who wants to build and manage a fleet of custom agents, with strong security and model flexibility.

Questions

Llev vs Dust, answered.

Is Dust not also EU and secure?

It is — Dust is a strong EU platform. The real difference is Llev is a ready-made hire, where Dust is a toolkit you build agents with.

Do I need an “AI operator” to run Llev?

No. Llev is hired and onboarded like a person — there are no agents to design or maintain.

Can Llev use multiple models like Dust?

Yes — Llev runs on the best models (Opus 4.8, GPT-5.5, Gemini 3.5) with fallback, managed for you.
