API keys need the $37 Pro plan, the trial needs a card, the key can travel in the URL, and self-serve content may be used to train Gumloop's models.\n\n**Pipedream API + MCP.** Managed OAuth per end user across 3,000+ apps, through API, SDK or MCP. Public changelog's last entry is 1 October 2025.\n\n## Before you call either\n\n### Gumloop\n\n1. Send the key as `Authorization: Bearer` and, for a personal key, add the `x-auth-key` header with the user ID. Do not put `api_key` in the URL\n2. Create sessions with `POST /agents/{agent_id}/sessions`, then poll `GET /sessions/{session_id}`. A 202 means processing or queued, and the reply is not in the response\n3. Supply your own `session_id` when creating a session. A repeat returns 409, which makes a retry safe\n4. For streamed output send the same body with `stream: true` to `ws.gumloop.com`. `api.gumloop.com` answers 400 to it\n5. Treat a webhook trigger URL as a password. It returns `{\"success\": true}` at once and never carries the agent's output\n\n### Pipedream API + MCP\n\n1. Pass your own user ID as `x-pd-external-user-id` so each user's accounts stay separate\n2. Send `x-pd-app-slug` to load one app's tools rather than 10,000\n3. Use a Connect rate-limit token (`x-pd-rate-limit`) to cap runaway loops per user\n4. Check `isError` on tool results before treating a call as done\n5. Stay on `x-pd-environment: development` until billing is set, since production needs a paid plan\n\n## Questions\n\n### Which is better for AI agents, Gumloop or Pipedream API + MCP?\n\nPipedream API + MCP scores 65.5 (B) on agent readiness against Gumloop's 61.6 (C), and leads in 5 of 7 scored categories. Gumloop leads on reliability and schema \u0026 documentation.\n\n### Do Gumloop and Pipedream API + MCP need an API key?\n\nBoth take an API key or an OAuth sign-in.\n\n### Can an agent call Gumloop and Pipedream API + MCP without installing anything?\n\nYes. Gumloop has a hosted endpoint at https://api.gumloop.com/api/v1 and Pipedream API + MCP at https://api.pipedream.com/v1.\n\n\n## For agents\n\n- This comparison as JSON: https://www.anchorterminal.com/compare/gumloop-vs-pipedream.json, and with the fewest tokens: https://www.anchorterminal.com/compare/gumloop-vs-pipedream.min.md\n- Over MCP at https://www.anchorterminal.com/mcp (no key): `compare_tools {\"a\": \"gumloop\", \"b\": \"pipedream\"}`.
