No outside agent can call it, no status page or changelog was found, and its llms.txt and pricing file disagree on free limits and Max's price.\n\n**OpenDuet.** Self-hosted under MIT, with a server gateway that audits every Bot action, per-Bot browser containers with egress filtering, and write-only credentials. Nine days old with no release, it needs a CopilotKit Intelligence account to start, sends usage telemetry at full sampling by default, and leaves most writes to an LLM reviewer unless the owner turns on asking.\n\n## Before you call either\n\n### folk\n\n1. Don't plan to call folk from another agent. It answers only the owner's iMessage, Telegram or WhatsApp thread and iPhone app.\n2. Quote limits and prices from pricing.md and the terms, and note that llms.txt gives different free-tier limits.\n\n### OpenDuet\n\n1. Follow the README's Quick start (`bun install`, `bash scripts/start.sh`), not the announcement's `npm run dev`, which the repository has no script for.\n2. Run `bun openbot/scripts/setup-learning.ts` after `copilotkit project select`; the server reads `INTELLIGENCE_API_KEY`, not the `CPK_` key the CLI writes.\n3. Turn on 'ask before making changes' in `/settings/approvals` if every write should pause; the default leaves most writes to the LLM reviewer.\n4. To bring your own agent, register it as a `remote-ag-ui` Bot in `agents.yaml`; its tool calls still pass through the gateway's policy and audit.\n5. Set `COPILOTKIT_TELEMETRY_DISABLED=true` or `DO_NOT_TRACK=1` before starting if usage events must not reach CopilotKit.\n\n## Questions\n\n### Which is better for AI agents, folk or OpenDuet?\n\nOpenDuet scores 49.5 (D) on agent readiness against folk's 19.7 (F), and leads in 6 of 7 scored categories.\n\n### Are folk and OpenDuet open source?\n\nNo open-source release is listed for folk. OpenDuet is open source (MIT. Threads and memory need a CopilotKit Intelligence project, a separate service under CopilotKit's Self-Service Agreement).\n\n\n## For agents\n\n- This comparison as JSON: https://www.anchorterminal.com/compare/folk-nozomio-vs-openduet.json, and with the fewest tokens: https://www.anchorterminal.com/compare/folk-nozomio-vs-openduet.min.md\n- Over MCP at https://www.anchorterminal.com/mcp (no key): `compare_tools {\"a\": \"folk-nozomio\", \"b\": \"openduet\"}`.
