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**Poke.** Hosted assistant that answers in Apple Messages, WhatsApp, Telegram and RCS and acts in Gmail, Outlook, calendars and MCP servers. Plan prices and a status page are public. No approval settings, credential storage, model providers or retention periods are documented, and customer content trains models unless Maximum Privacy is selected.\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### Poke\n\n1. POST JSON to `https://poke.com/api/v1/inbound/api-message` with a Bearer key from Kitchen. Legacy `pk_` keys work only on the deprecated `/api/v1/inbound-sms/webhook`\n2. Expect only `{\"success\": true}` back. Poke's answer goes to the owner's message thread, not to the caller\n3. Do not retry a POST blindly. No idempotency key is documented, and a repeated message may make Poke act twice\n4. Treat an API key as full access to the owner's mail, calendar and integrations. Create one key per automation and revoke it when done\n5. Avoid the prefilled integration link with `apiKey` in the query string for real secrets. Enter the key in the form or use `npx poke@latest mcp add -k`\n\n## Questions\n\n### Which is better for AI agents, Orbits or Poke?\n\nPoke scores 37.6 (F) on agent readiness against Orbits's 15.6 (F), and leads in 6 of 7 scored categories.
