The status page shows live checks only and keeps no incident history.\n\n**Beam 1.0.** The Reflection API is OpenAI-compatible, with an OpenAPI document, strict structured outputs and tool calls, and error codes that say when to retry, and the weights are Apache-2.0. It is a free public beta with unpublished daily limits and no per-token price, reasoning can't be turned off, and three API incidents were posted between 14 and 16 October 2026.\n\n## Before you call either\n\n### BlockRun.AI\n\n1. Fund a dedicated wallet with a small USDC balance. The balance is the spending cap\n2. Use `blockrun_wallet` delegate with `agent_limit` before handing a sub-agent the server\n3. On a 429, wait `Retry-After` and read `X-RateLimit-Source` to fail over to the same tier on another provider\n4. Call `blockrun_models` before hard-coding a model name, since models are removed without notice\n5. Use `mode:\"free\"` for drafts and classification, paid models for generation\n\n### Beam 1.0\n\n1. Send `reasoning_effort` `low` or `medium` for short tasks. The default is `max`, and `none` or `minimal` return `400 unsupported_value`\n2. Return every assistant message with its `reasoning_content` unchanged. If a turn comes back without it, start a new conversation, since later requests fail with `missing_required_parameter`\n3. Don't rely on `stop` or `seed`. Both are accepted and ignored, so truncate output in your own code\n4. Honour `x-should-retry: false` on a 429. It means a daily limit is spent and `Retry-After` counts to 00:00 UTC\n5. Set `max_completion_tokens` yourself on long prompts. The default budget isn't reduced to fit the prompt and includes reasoning tokens\n\n## Questions\n\n### Which is better for AI agents, BlockRun.AI or Beam 1.0?\n\nBlockRun.AI scores 72.4 (BB) on agent readiness against Beam 1.0's 53.4 (D), and leads in 5 of 7 scored categories. Beam 1.0 leads on schema \u0026 documentation.\n\n### Do BlockRun.AI and Beam 1.0 need an API key?\n\nBlockRun.AI takes an API key or an OAuth sign-in. Beam 1.0 needs an API key. An agent can also pay BlockRun.AI per call over x402, with no account.\n\n### Can an agent call BlockRun.AI and Beam 1.0 without installing anything?\n\nBlockRun.AI runs on your own machine, with no hosted endpoint listed. Beam 1.0 has a hosted endpoint at https://api.reflection.ai/openai/v1.\n\n\n## For agents\n\n- This comparison as JSON: https://www.anchorterminal.com/compare/blockrun-ai-vs-reflection-beam.json, and with the fewest tokens: https://www.anchorterminal.com/compare/blockrun-ai-vs-reflection-beam.min.md\n- Over MCP at https://www.anchorterminal.com/mcp (no key): `compare_tools {\"a\": \"blockrun-ai\", \"b\": \"reflection-beam\"}`.
