The limit is 5 requests a second for a whole organisation, and the legal documents load only with JavaScript, so data handling terms weren't read.\n\n**Remote.** The REST API has 303 operations in a public OpenAPI document, 78 OAuth scopes split into read and write, a sandbox issued by email with no card, and a hosted MCP server using OAuth with PKCE. The REST changelog link redirects to a login page, and writes have no idempotency key.\n\n## Before you call either\n\n### Deel\n\n1. Queue calls to stay under 5 requests a second for the whole organisation. Other integrations on the same account share the limit\n2. Send `X-Version: 2026-01-01` on REST calls, and watch `X-State`, `Deprecation` and `Sunset` response headers\n3. Send a UUID `Idempotency-Key` on POST and PATCH. Only retry a 5xx on a write when the request carried one\n4. Test against https://api-staging.letsdeel.com/rest with a sandbox token. Production and sandbox tokens aren't interchangeable\n5. Request read scopes only (people:read, time-off:read) for a read-only agent. Rejecting a time-off request is irreversible\n\n### Remote\n\n1. Match the token prefix to the host. `ra_test_` works only on https://gateway.remote-sandbox.com and `ra_live_` only on https://gateway.remote.com\n2. Stay under 300 requests a minute per company for customer tokens, shared by every token, and read `x-ratelimit-remaining` and `x-ratelimit-reset` (milliseconds)\n3. Check for an existing record before retrying a create, or set `external_id` on employments and treat a 422 for a duplicate as success\n4. Fetch the country form schema (`GET /v1/countries/{country_code}/{form}`) before writing employment data. Country codes are three-letter ISO\n5. Use the REST API for unattended work. The MCP server needs a browser sign-in and its write tools cover employee self-service only\n\n## Questions\n\n### Which is better for AI agents, Deel or Remote?\n\nRemote scores 70.7 (BB) on agent readiness against Deel's 69.1 (B), and leads in 4 of 7 scored categories. Deel leads on schema \u0026 documentation and agent ergonomics.\n\n### Do Deel and Remote need an API key?\n\nBoth take an API key or an OAuth sign-in.\n\n### Can an agent call Deel and Remote without installing anything?\n\nYes. Deel has a hosted endpoint at https://api.letsdeel.com/rest and Remote at https://gateway.remote.com.\n\n\n## For agents\n\n- This comparison as JSON: https://www.anchorterminal.com/compare/deel-vs-remote.json, and with the fewest tokens: https://www.anchorterminal.com/compare/deel-vs-remote.min.md\n- Over MCP at https://www.anchorterminal.com/mcp (no key): `compare_tools {\"a\": \"deel\", \"b\": \"remote\"}`.
