## Verdicts

**Lola.** Free membership and published paid-plan commitments. External agent integration was not verified.

**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.

## Before you call either

### Lola

1. Have the traveller confirm booking details, charges and cancellation terms.
2. Check whether a membership benefit is live before relying on it.

### Soar

1. Don't plan to call Soar from another agent. Its MCP server needs private onboarding by the team.
2. Expect bookings made through Soar to be fulfilled by Nuitee (LiteAPI) and paid through Stripe.
