Verdicts

Asmi

Asmi is a hosted errand service with a 12-tool MCP server for Claude, ChatGPT and Muse, using OAuth with separate scopes for tracking tasks and for contacting people. Tool schemas sit behind sign-in, the outreach scope is ticked by default, and no status page, changelog or security contact was found.

Haven

Haven answers by phone call, text, email and app, is free in beta with no card, and publishes a status page with dated incidents. No public page read says which actions need approval, which accounts it connects or how their tokens are kept, and it names no model provider or sub-processor.

Before you call either

Asmi

  1. Use the endpoint for your own client (/mcp/claude/, /mcp/openai/ or /mcp/meta/). A token from another client gets 403.
  2. Call discover_search before execute_start, then poll execute_status with the task id instead of starting the task again.
  3. Answer Asmi's questions with execute_advance. Calls already placed can't be recalled by execute_cancel.
  4. Expect outreach_not_permitted if the owner unticked contact people. Ask them to reconnect rather than retrying.
  5. Check billing_status before starting a task, since each outreach task uses one of the month's quota.

Haven

  1. Haven has no documented API or MCP server. An outside agent can reach it only through the owner's channels (call, SMS, email, app).
  2. Do not assume an approval step before Haven sends mail, texts or calls. None is documented on the public pages.
  3. Email Haven sends to other people names Hello Haven as sender and says it was sent on the user's behalf, per the terms.
  4. Chat messages, history, profile context and uploaded files go to third-party AI model providers that the vendor does not name.
  5. Check status.hellohaven.ai before relying on phone or voice. All four published incidents affected those channels.

Disclosure

Asmi 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.
