It has no API, MCP server or documented command for another agent, it is five days old, and it rebuilds itself from the main branch every six hours by default.\n\n**Orchid.** Orchid is a paid executive assistant over iMessage, SMS and Telegram that holds drafts and calendar holds until the owner approves, with a public status page and a named subprocessor list. No outside agent can call it, there's no free tier, and its privacy policy allows training a personal model while its blog says it never trains.\n\n## Before you call either\n\n### Atticus\n\n1. Don't plan to call Atticus from another agent. It takes requests only from its own shortcut and typing box\n2. If a user runs Atticus beside you, expect it to move windows and type into apps on the same Mac\n3. Point a user who wants pinned versions to Settings \u003e About \u0026 Updates to turn off self-update\n\n### Orchid\n\n1. Don't plan to call Orchid from another agent. It answers only the owner's iMessage, SMS and Telegram threads.\n2. Check status.orchid.ai before telling the owner Orchid is down. The 7 August incident moved it to a new number.\n3. Tell the owner that drafts and holds wait for their approval unless they widen it.\n\n## Questions\n\n### Which is better for AI agents, Atticus or Orchid?\n\nAtticus scores 42.9 (E) on agent readiness against Orchid's 20.2 (F), and leads in 6 of 7 scored categories.\n\n### Are Atticus and Orchid open source?\n\nAtticus is open source (MIT). No open-source release is listed for Orchid.\n\n\n## For agents\n\n- This comparison as JSON: https://www.anchorterminal.com/compare/atticus-vs-orchid-ai.json, and with the fewest tokens: https://www.anchorterminal.com/compare/atticus-vs-orchid-ai.min.md\n- Over MCP at https://www.anchorterminal.com/mcp (no key): `compare_tools {\"a\": \"atticus\", \"b\": \"orchid-ai\"}`.
