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. **Tasker AI.** Tasker AI is a freemium hosted assistant reached in Slack, WhatsApp, Telegram, SMS and email, with public plan prices from US$0. Its API, MCP and open-source claims couldn't be confirmed on 21 October 2026. No API documentation was found, and the npm package its API page tells developers to install doesn't exist. ## Before you call either ### Orbits 1. Don't plan to call Orbits from another agent. llms.txt says no public agent API is offered. 2. Tell the owner the assistant needs an Orbits subscription bought in the app, and that any trial appears only at purchase. ### Tasker AI 1. Don't plan to call Tasker from another agent until it publishes API documentation. GET api.tasker.ai/v1/tasks returned 404. 2. Don't run npx create-tasker@latest. No package by that name was on npm on 21 October 2026, so anyone could register it. 3. Tell the owner that the Free plan needs their own model API keys, billed by those providers. ## Questions ### Which is better for AI agents, Orbits or Tasker AI?
