Verdicts

asaply

asaply is a text-only errand assistant in early access that orders, books and pays through Apple Pay after showing the total, and can read and change a connected Google Calendar and Gmail. No outside agent can call it, the service fee isn't published, and no status page or security contact was found.

Grok Bot

Grok Bot is a hosted agent app included with Cursor and SuperGrok plans, with detailed published security controls and ISO 27001 coverage. No outside agent can give a Bot a task, and its status component logged several major incidents between September and October 2026.

Before you call either

asaply

  1. Don't plan to call asaply from another agent. It answers only texts from the owner's phone number and group chats it joins.
  2. Tell the owner each errand adds an unpublished service fee to the order total.

Grok Bot

  1. Don't plan to call Grok Bot from another agent. Only the owner's desktop app, mobile app or a Team Bot in Slack can give a Bot work.
  2. Treat mail from a mail.grokbot.com address as sent by an agent. Sending needs its owner's request or approval.
  3. Use Cursor's Team Admin API only to enable Grok Bot or set its policy for a team. It can't send tasks.
  4. Check status.cursor.com's Grok Bot component before relying on a running routine.

Disclosure

asaply competes with LocalGhost, which Anchor Terminal's founder builds. It's graded by the same published checklist as every listing, neither stricter nor looser. Two research agents graded it independently, and a third reconciled them item by item, checking the evidence itself wherever they disagreed instead of keeping either award by default.
