No outside agent can call it, prices appear only as App Store in-app purchases, and no status page, security contact or named subprocessors were found.\n\n**Orchid.** Orchid is a paid executive assistant over iMessage, SMS and Telegram that holds drafts and calendar holds until the owner approves, with a public status page and a named subprocessor list. No outside agent can call it, there's no free tier, and its privacy policy allows training a personal model while its blog says it never trains.\n\n## Before you call either\n\n### Orbits\n\n1. Don't plan to call Orbits from another agent. llms.txt says no public agent API is offered.\n2. Tell the owner the assistant needs an Orbits subscription bought in the app, and that any trial appears only at purchase.\n\n### Orchid\n\n1. Don't plan to call Orchid from another agent. It answers only the owner's iMessage, SMS and Telegram threads.\n2. Check status.orchid.ai before telling the owner Orchid is down. The 7 August incident moved it to a new number.\n3. Tell the owner that drafts and holds wait for their approval unless they widen it.\n\n## Questions\n\n### Which is better for AI agents, Orbits or Orchid?\n\nOrchid scores 20.2 (F) on agent readiness against Orbits's 15.6 (F), and leads in 2 of 7 scored categories.
