No OpenAPI document, llms.txt or official MCP server.\n\n**Soar.** Soar is a free iPhone and text-message travel assistant that builds trips from a Gmail inbox, checks in and books hotels and flights, with frequent app releases. Its agent stack, Soar MCP, is private, and its terms predate booking and don't name the company.\n\n## Before you call either\n\n### Duffel Flights and Stays API\n\n1. Send `Duffel-Version: v2` on every request or you get a version error\n2. Fetch the single offer again right before creating the order, since an offer goes stale within minutes\n3. Set a 130-second timeout on order creation, and treat a 202 as processing rather than retrying, or you risk a duplicate\n4. Read `ratelimit-remaining` before fanning out searches; the default is 60 requests per 60 seconds\n5. Count offer requests. Above 1,500 per order the surcharge starts and the agreement lets Duffel cap you\n\n### Soar\n\n1. Don't plan to call Soar from another agent. Its MCP server needs private onboarding by the team.\n2. Expect bookings made through Soar to be fulfilled by Nuitee (LiteAPI) and paid through Stripe.\n\n## Tutorials\n\n- [Compare test flight fares with Duffel](https://www.anchorterminal.com/tutorials/duffel/), for Duffel Flights and Stays API\n\n## Questions\n\n### Which is better for AI agents, Duffel Flights and Stays API or Soar?\n\nDuffel Flights and Stays API scores 66.7 (B) on agent readiness against Soar's 12.6 (F), and leads in every scored category.\n\n### Which is cheaper for flight search, Duffel Flights and Stays API or Soar?\n\nSoar, at free against $3 per transaction for Duffel Flights and Stays API.
