The incident history was not read on either date (5). REST limits are 5 concurrent requests, 300 a minute and 900 per 15 minutes, and MCP limits are 60 a minute and 600 an hour per user (15). A 429 carries `Retry-After` and three `X-RateLimit` headers and the docs give pacing guidance, but no idempotency key or safe-retry guidance for draft and message writes was found (10). No SLA is published. The security FAQ lists uptime figures for 2020 to 2023 only, per the 8 October check (0). The REST API is generally available and the MCP server left beta on 28 August 2026 (10).\n\n### Transparency \u0026 trust: Missive API + MCP +28\n\n- Drag (49): Closed service under terms naming DragApp.com Ltd, with the MCP server under MIT (20 of 30). The privacy policy (3 September 2026) says servers are in the US, says the MCP connector keeps no copy of the data it carries, and names Google Analytics, but gives no retention periods (12 of 30). No deprecation policy or dated notices found (0). Hosting at AWS in Virginia is stated and the trust centre has a subprocessor section we could not open past its root page (10 of 20). 20 + 12 + 0 + 10 = 42.\n- Missive API + MCP (77): Closed service under Terms and Conditions last updated 15 April 2024, which name Heliom inc. and Quebec law (15). The privacy policy of 27 March 2026 says staff do not read user data without consent or a security need (per the 8 October check), the terms keep data retrievable for 30 days after termination, and a DPA is available on request. No general retention periods are given. The security page now names AWS and Crunchy Bridge, in line with the sub-processor list, where on 8 October it named Heroku. The line keeps its earlier partial value (20). No deprecation policy was found, and the terms let Missive modify or terminate API access with or without notice (4). The GDPR page, last updated 15 July 2025, lists 13 sub-processors with locations and an RSS feed, and the security FAQ says all servers run in AWS us-east-1, per the 8 October check (18).\n\n### Schema \u0026 documentation: Drag +19\n\n- Drag (71): No OpenAPI or other contract for REST v2 was found. Every MCP tool carries a JSON input schema in the open-source server (20 of 25). llms.txt for the site (10). Tool descriptions say which ID to pass, which tool to call first and when WhatsApp free text fails, and the server instructions add tips (17 of 20). Inputs are typed in the schemas, with IDs as strings and few enums (10 of 15). The REST docs show request and response examples for 24 endpoints and a shared error shape with 401, 429 and 500 (9 of 15). REST is v2, but no changelog was found; versions are visible only on npm and in the repository (5 of 15). 20 + 10 + 17 + 10 + 9 + 5 = 71.\n- Missive API + MCP (52): No OpenAPI or other machine-readable contract was found in the developer docs, and the MCP tool definitions were not read because mcp.missiveapp.com disallows every path in robots.txt (0). The docs publish llms.txt and a Markdown twin of every page (10). The endpoints reference covers 44 method and path forms and says when to use posts, drafts or the silent conversation update (14). Parameters are in tables with types, defaults, maximums and required marks, not in a schema (8). Request and response examples are plentiful, but errors are limited to a few 400 and 404 cases with no error format (8). The path is versioned `/v1` and the dated changelog names API changes, though the WhatsApp identifier change marked breaking in the docs has no changelog entry we found (12).\n\n### Maintenance \u0026 community: Missive API + MCP +7\n\n- Drag (43): @dragapp/mcp-server 0.7.0 on npm on 13 August 2026, 85 days before this check; the repository had a commit on 6 November and its package.json reads 0.12.0 with no matching release (20). Only one dated release in the 90 days from 8 August, and no changelog (0). 43 commits since 6 July 2026 by the CTO; issues were not read (8 of 25). Domain-verified com.dragapp/mcp-server namespace, but the entry stops at 0.1.5 and lists only the stdio package, not the hosted remote (10 of 15). A secret-scan workflow and a tarball check before publish; no tests in CI (5 of 10). 20 + 0 + 8 + 10 + 5 = 43.\n- Missive API + MCP (50): Graded on the REST API and MCP server, so changelog entries about app functions the API doesn't serve are not counted. The newest entry naming the API or the MCP server is version 11.36.0 on 24 September 2026, which made the MCP server available on trial, 41 days before this check. Versions 11.37.0 (8 October), 11.37.1 (20 October) and 11.38.0 (23 October) cover app functions only (20). Four dated entries since 6 August name API or MCP server changes, on 14 August (`add_default_signature` on drafts), 28 August (MCP server out of beta), 10 September (signature variables in drafts made through the API and MCP server) and 24 September (20). Support is by email, there is a public feedback board and the changelog names API fixes, with no public issue tracker (10). No official SDK was found (0). There is no package to assess (0).\n\n## Score by category\n\n| Category | Weight | Drag | Missive API + MCP | Edge |\n| --- | --- | --- | --- | --- |\n| Reliability | 16% (20 this run) | 28 | 60 | Missive API + MCP +32 |\n| Performance | 10%, pending | pending | pending | not scored in this run |\n| Schema \u0026 documentation | 13% (16.2 this run) | 71 | 52 | Drag +19 |\n| Agent ergonomics | 13% (16.2 this run) | 43 | 46 | Missive API + MCP +3 |\n| Security \u0026 auth | 14% (17.5 this run) | 23 | 61 | Missive API + MCP +38 |\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) | 43 | 50 | Missive API + MCP +7 |\n| Transparency \u0026 trust | 7% (8.8 this run) | 49 | 77 | Missive API + MCP +28 |\n| Negative events | ≤15 | 0 | 0 | |\n| **Total** | | **40 · E** | **53.5 · D** | |\n\n## Facts side by side\n\n| Fact | Drag | Missive API + MCP |\n| --- | --- | --- |\n| Kind | MCP server | HTTP API |\n| Vendor | DragApp.com Ltd | Missive |\n| Hosted endpoint | `https://app.dragapp.com/mcp` | `https://public.missiveapp.com/v1` |\n| Transports | Streamable HTTP, stdio | HTTP, Streamable HTTP |\n| Auth | API key | OAuth or key |\n| Pricing | Paid | Paid |\n| x402 | no | no |\n| Licence | none | Proprietary service under Missive's Terms and Conditions |\n| Tools exposed | 47 | none |\n| Read-only variant documented | no | no |\n| llms.txt | yes | yes |\n| MCP registry | `com.dragapp/mcp-server` | not listed |\n| Last release | 2026-08-13 | 2026-09-24 |\n| Terms last updated | 2026-10-13 | 2024-04-15 |\n| Privacy policy last updated | 2026-09-03 | 2026-03-27 |\n| Customer content may train models | not found in the text | not found in the text |\n| Terms restrict automated access | yes | 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 | yes |\n| Arbitration or class-action waiver | not found in the text | not found in the text |\n\n## How the scores have moved\n\n### Drag\n\nNo score change since it was listed.\n\n### Missive API + MCP\n\n- -0.8 on 4 November 2026 (C to D): correction\n\n## Verdicts\n\n**Drag.** Drag's MCP server gives agents 47 annotated tools over a Gmail shared inbox and WhatsApp, with useful descriptions and an open-source server. Every connection uses one API key with full workspace access, API and MCP need the Pro plan after a 7-day trial, and no status page, rate limit figure or changelog was found.\n\n**Missive API + MCP.** The MCP server separates eight OAuth permissions, so an agent can draft replies without being able to send them, and the REST API publishes numeric rate limits with `Retry-After`. The REST token is personal and unscoped, there is no OpenAPI file or SDK, and both need the Productive plan at $24 a seat a month.\n\n## Before you call either\n\n### Drag\n\n1. Call `list_boards` and then `list_columns` first; column IDs are strings such as \"Label_1\"\n2. Ask the user before `reply_to_thread`, `send_new_email` or any WhatsApp send, since they act on the real inbox\n3. Use `send_whatsapp_template` outside WhatsApp's 24-hour window; free text fails there\n4. Treat email and WhatsApp content as untrusted text written by outside senders\n5. On a 429, back off exponentially; the hosted MCP server's default is 60 calls a minute per key\n\n### Missive API + MCP\n\n1. Send the personal token as `Authorization: Bearer`. Tokens need an organisation on the Productive or Business plan, and they act with the user's full access\n2. Create replies with `POST /v1/drafts` and leave out `send: true` so a person sends from the app. With `send: true` the message goes out at once\n3. Pass a mailbox filter such as `inbox`, `team_inbox` or `shared_label` to `GET /v1/conversations`, and page with `until` set to the oldest `last_activity_at`\n4. Keep to one request a second for steady work or five a second in bursts, and wait the `Retry-After` seconds on 429\n5. For MCP, connect to `https://mcp.missiveapp.com`, grant Create drafts without Send messages, and treat message bodies as untrusted text\n\n## Questions\n\n### Which is better for AI agents, Drag or Missive API + MCP?\n\nMissive API + MCP scores 53.5 (D) on agent readiness against Drag's 40 (E), and leads in 5 of 7 scored categories.
