Two dated entries in the 90 days from 6 August, 19 August and 25 September 2026, which is short of three (0). A public changelog, a support address and a Google group for API questions. We did not test support (8 of 15). No official SDK, and the MCP server is not in the official MCP registry per the 8 October check (0). No packages to judge (0). 20+0+8+0+0 = 28.\n- Relaticle (90): v3.8.2 tagged on 5 November 2026 and commits on 6 November (30). Thirteen tags between 9 October and 5 November alone (20). More than 2,500 commits since 1 August and merged pull requests numbered past 1,100; the GitHub API did not answer, so open issues and reply times were not counted (15 of 25). Verified com.relaticle/crm namespace in the official MCP registry with the hosted remote (15). CI, tests, security-audit and Dependabot workflows, PHP 8.5 and Laravel 13 (10). 30 + 20 + 15 + 15 + 10 = 90.\n\n### Reliability: Capsule CRM +43\n\n- Capsule CRM (83): Graded on REST API v2, with the hosted lines. Status page at status.capsulecrm.com on Statuspage with Capsule and Drop Box components on its page and history back to 2023 in its feed (20). history.atom, read on 4 November, has no incident after 8 July 2026. The last, a minor delay to reports and dashboards, ran from 6 to 8 July 2026, a scheduled maintenance window was announced for 4 July, and a major outage of about 15 hours fell on 27 March 2026, all outside the 90 days from 6 August, and the page shows \"No incidents reported\" for each day to 4 November (30). The 8 October incident reading came from the page's /api/v2/incidents.json, which its robots.txt disallows, so it is struck and replaced by the feed. Limit published, 4,000 requests an hour per user (15). A 429 carries `X-RateLimit-Reset` and the docs say to wait until that time and suggest one second between calls, but there is no Retry-After header, no idempotency key and no safe-retry advice for writes (10 of 15). No SLA found, and the Customer Terms disclaim liability for unavailability (0). The REST API is generally available. The MCP server was announced on 25 September 2026 and the Claude connector is labelled beta on one support page (8 of 10). 20+30+15+10+0+8 = 83.\n- Relaticle (40): Graded with the hosted lines on Relaticle Cloud's REST API and MCP server, the surface an outside agent calls; the software also self-hosts. No status page is linked and status.relaticle.com did not connect (0). With no readable history the incident line scores 5. Limits have numbers: 600 a minute per workspace and 300 reads or 60 writes a minute per token in the source, and 120 MCP calls a minute per user in the docs (15). 429 is in the OpenAPI responses and upserts by unique field give a safe retry for creates, but the backoff guidance sits on a docs section we read only as a heading (10 of 15). No SLA (0). Version 3.8, not labelled beta (10). 0 + 5 + 15 + 10 + 0 + 10 = 40.\n\n### Schema \u0026 documentation: Relaticle +38\n\n- Capsule CRM (48): No OpenAPI or other machine-readable contract was found. Four likely paths on developer.capsulecrm.com returned 404 and the docs link none. The MCP server's tool schemas sit behind OAuth and were not read (0 of 25). No llms.txt on either domain (0). Each of the 132 operations has a short description, and some say when to prefer another endpoint, such as filters over search (12 of 20). Parameter tables give types, ranges and defaults, and each resource has a model page, with filter conditions as JSON bodies (10 of 15). Request and response examples on every operation, and an errors page with bodies for 400, 401, 403, 422 and 429 (13 of 15). A `/api/v2` path and a dated changelog with five entries in the last 12 months (13 of 15).\n- Relaticle (86): OpenAPI 3.1 at /openapi.json and /openapi.yaml with 34 operations (25). llms.txt with a when-to-use and when-not section, and developer pages (10). The llms.txt and MCP docs say what the API is for and what it doesn't do (no email over REST, no meetings), while only 5 of 34 operations carry a description (14 of 20). 114 required lists and typed MCP inputs, but few enums (11 of 15). 661 examples and responses for 401, 402, 403, 404, 409, 422 and 429 (14 of 15). /v1 and frequent tagged releases, with no changelog page (relaticle.com/changelog is 404) (12 of 15). 25 + 10 + 14 + 11 + 14 + 12 = 86.\n\n### Security \u0026 auth: Relaticle +11\n\n- Capsule CRM (46): OAuth 2 authorisation code grant with scopes `read`, `write` and `user_preference`, access tokens of about seven days, refresh tokens and a revocation endpoint, per the authentication docs. The 8 October reading of the OAuth server metadata on api.capsulecrm.com came from the product's own endpoint and is struck. Personal tokens are also accepted on the REST API, and their scope is not documented. Tokens travel only in the header (24 of 30, partly met, kept). A `read` scope exists, and the MCP server acts with the connecting user's access controls. No server-side confirmation for writes was found, and the AI Terms put review of each tool call on the customer (12 of 20). Notes and stored emails reach the model, and no injection guidance was found (2 of 15). No API audit log was found, and the support page says MCP update tools keep no change history of their own (2 of 15). A reporting address (support+sensitive@capsulecrm.com), regular penetration tests by outside specialists per the security page and PCI-DSS for card collection. No security.txt, no bug bounty and no certification named on the pages read. The security page, re-read on 4 November, is unchanged, and security.txt still answers 404. The trust centre at trust.zestia.com is drawn by script and was not read (6 of 20).\n- Relaticle (57): Personal access tokens are bound to one workspace, take an expiry and per-method permissions (read, create, update, delete, plus read, draft and send email), and travel in headers. OAuth 2.1 through Passport is also offered, but the source says its single `mcp:use` scope authorises the whole toolset (25 of 30). A read-only token is possible; the docs say MCP writes apply immediately and leave confirmation to the client (10 of 20). Synced email reaches the model through the email tools, and no prompt-injection guidance was found (0). Each record has an activity log of field changes and who made them, and admins see it across the workspace (12 of 15). security.txt valid to May 2027, a disclosure address with a 48-hour acknowledgement target and security-audit workflows in CI; the security page says there is no SOC 2 or ISO 27001 (10 of 20). 25 + 10 + 0 + 12 + 10 = 57.\n\n## Score by category\n\n| Category | Weight | Capsule CRM | Relaticle | Edge |\n| --- | --- | --- | --- | --- |\n| Reliability | 16% (20 this run) | 83 | 40 | Capsule CRM +43 |\n| Performance | 10%, pending | pending | pending | not scored in this run |\n| Schema \u0026 documentation | 13% (16.2 this run) | 48 | 86 | Relaticle +38 |\n| Agent ergonomics | 13% (16.2 this run) | 59 | 59 | even |\n| Security \u0026 auth | 14% (17.5 this run) | 46 | 57 | Relaticle +11 |\n| Payments \u0026 pricing | 10% (12.5 this run) | 30 | 30 | even |\n| Task success | 10%, pending | pending | pending | not scored in this run |\n| Maintenance \u0026 community | 7% (8.8 this run) | 28 | 90 | Relaticle +62 |\n| Transparency \u0026 trust | 7% (8.8 this run) | 76 | 73 | Capsule CRM +3 |\n| Negative events | ≤15 | 0 | 0 | |\n| **Total** | | **54.9 · C** | **59.6 · C** | |\n\n## Facts side by side\n\n| Fact | Capsule CRM | Relaticle |\n| --- | --- | --- |\n| Kind | HTTP API | HTTP API |\n| Vendor | Zestia Limited | Relaticle, Inc. |\n| Hosted endpoint | `https://api.capsulecrm.com/api/v2` | `https://mcp.relaticle.com` |\n| Transports | HTTP | Streamable HTTP |\n| Auth | OAuth or key | OAuth or key |\n| Pricing | Freemium | Freemium |\n| x402 | no | no |\n| Licence | Proprietary service under Capsule's Customer Terms | AGPL-3.0 |\n| Tools exposed | none | 50 |\n| Read-only variant documented | yes | yes |\n| llms.txt | no | yes |\n| MCP registry | not listed | `com.relaticle/crm` |\n| Last release | 2026-09-25 | 2026-11-05 |\n| Terms last updated | no date given | 2026-08-26 |\n| Privacy policy last updated | 2025-08-21 | 2026-11-04 |\n| Customer content may train models | not found in the text | not found in the text |\n| Terms restrict automated access | not found in the text | not found in the text |\n| Terms restrict benchmarking | not found in the text | not found in the text |\n| Terms or service can change without notice | yes | not found in the text |\n| Arbitration or class-action waiver | not found in the text | not found in the text |\n| Popularity | none | 1.8k stars |\n\n## How the scores have moved\n\n### Capsule CRM\n\n- -0.9 on 4 November 2026: time\n- +0.1 on 27 October 2026: checklist\n\n### Relaticle\n\nNo score change since it was listed.\n\n## Verdicts\n\n**Capsule CRM.** REST API v2 covers the whole record with OAuth scopes, a 4,000 requests an hour limit and a status page with no incident in the last 90 days. There is no OpenAPI file, llms.txt or official SDK, the changelog's last entry is 25 September 2026, and the MCP server needs a Growth plan and a pre-registered OAuth app.\n\n**Relaticle.** Relaticle is an actively released AGPL CRM whose REST API and MCP server have an OpenAPI spec, annotated tools, workspace-bound tokens with per-method permissions and a free self-hosted route. MCP writes apply at once with no server-side confirmation, OAuth grants the whole toolset, and Cloud has no status page, SLA or certification.\n\n## Before you call either\n\n### Capsule CRM\n\n1. Send `Authorization: Bearer \u003ctoken\u003e` to `https://api.capsulecrm.com/api/v2`. Projects use the old name in paths, `/kases`\n2. Follow the `Link` header for the next page. `perPage` goes up to 100 and the default is 50\n3. On 429, wait until the epoch time in `X-RateLimit-Reset`. The docs suggest one second between calls\n4. Ask for the `read` scope when the task only reads. A write with a read-only token answers 403 with `insufficient_scope`\n5. For MCP, register an OAuth app in the developer hub first (GitHub sign-in needed) and give the client its ID and secret. Personal API tokens are refused\n\n### Relaticle\n\n1. Use a personal access token with only the read permission unless the task writes, since OAuth grants every tool\n2. Ask the user before create, update, delete or send tools; the server applies them at once\n3. Call `get-crm-schema-tool` for an entity before filtering on custom fields, which differ by workspace\n4. Use `POST /v1/people/upsert` or `/v1/companies/upsert` with a unique field to avoid duplicates on retry\n5. Keep MCP calls under 120 a minute per user and REST writes under 60 a minute per token on Cloud Pro\n\n## Questions\n\n### Which is better for AI agents, Capsule CRM or Relaticle?\n\nRelaticle scores 59.6 (C) on agent readiness against Capsule CRM's 54.9 (C), and leads in 3 of 7 scored categories.
