Ahead on: - Reliability, 24 against 15 - Schema & documentation, 32 against 10 - Agent ergonomics, 43 against 0 - Security & auth, 49 against 0 - Payments & pricing, 35 against 20 - Maintenance & community, 9 against 2 - Transparency & trust, 52 against 43 Also in its favour: - Free to start without a card Watch for: The integrations page says approval settings apply in shared Slack threads only. Web chat, Slack direct messages, iMessage and SMS are not covered, and reads are never covered. ### Lobby (F) Good for: A person who wants mail drafts, follow-ups and scheduling prepared for approval across Google and a few work tools. Also in its favour: - No incidents deducted, where Lindy loses 3 points for them Watch for: No API, MCP server or A2A endpoint for an outside agent. ## Score by category | Category | Weight | Lindy | Lobby | Edge | | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | | Reliability | 16% (20 this run) | 24 | 15 | Lindy +9 | | Performance | 10%, pending | pending | pending | not scored in this run | | Schema & documentation | 13% (16.2 this run) | 32 | 10 | Lindy +22 | | Agent ergonomics | 13% (16.2 this run) | 43 | 0 | Lindy +43 | | Security & auth | 14% (17.5 this run) | 49 | 0 | Lindy +49 | | Payments & pricing | 10% (12.5 this run) | 35 | 20 | Lindy +15 | | Task success | 10%, pending | pending | pending | not scored in this run | | Maintenance & community | 7% (8.8 this run) | 9 | 2 | Lindy +7 | | Transparency & trust | 7% (8.8 this run) | 52 | 43 | Lindy +9 | | Negative events | ≤15 | -3 | 0 | | | **Total** | | **32.3 · F** | **11.1 · F** | | ## Facts side by side | Fact | Lindy | Lobby | | --- | --- | --- | | Kind | Platform | Platform | | Vendor | Crivello Corp (doing business as Lindy) | Lobby OS, Inc. | | Hosted endpoint | no (local only) | no (local only) | | Transports | | | | Auth | OAuth | OAuth | | Pricing | Paid | Paid | | x402 | no | no | | Licence | Proprietary service under Lindy's Terms of Service.

Its approval setting applies in shared Slack threads only, so writes asked for by direct message, text or web chat run unasked, which its pricing page does not say. It has no status page, and its changelog stops in October 2025. **Lobby.** Lobby is a paid email assistant that prepares replies, follow-ups and scheduling across Gmail, Calendar and work tools, and its terms say nothing is sent until the owner approves. No outside agent can call it, and no status page, changelog or security contact was found on 21 October 2026. ## Before you call either ### Lindy 1. Treat a request sent by direct message, text or web chat as unguarded. Approval prompts appear in shared Slack threads only. 2. Run a routine as a dry run before turning it on. A dry run reads real data and sends, posts and writes nothing. 3. Turn off unused tools after adding an MCP server. Every supported tool arrives switched on, and a large server adds more than a hundred. 4. Expect a billed seat for anyone who mentions Lindy in Slack. A teammate who joins that way has seven free days first. 5. Connect only hosted MCP servers on public HTTPS with streamable HTTP, the one kind the docs describe. ### Lobby 1. Don't plan to call Lobby from another agent. It works only inside its own app for the signed-in owner. 2. Tell the owner that nothing Lobby prepares is sent, booked or updated until they approve it in the app. 3. Check whether the 7-day trial takes a card before signing the owner up. The terms don't say. ## Questions ### Which is better for AI agents, Lindy or Lobby?

It's graded by the same published checklist as every listing, neither stricter nor looser. Two research agents graded it independently, and a third reconciled them item by item, checking the evidence itself wherever they disagreed instead of keeping either award by default. --- Query this catalogue directly over MCP: https://www.anchorterminal.com/mcp (Streamable HTTP, no key).
