No protocol (0). The cloud price wasn't found on the pages read (0). The desktop app is free and MIT with no card (20). The local app needs no sign-up that we found (20). 0 + 0 + 20 + 20 = 40.\n- Traycer (30): Scored on the paid option, Traycer's own inference subscription, whose price wasn't read (0 of 20). No protocol (0). Bring-your-own-agent use is free (20). Accounts for sync and teams weren't checked, half (10). 0 + 0 + 20 + 10 = 30.\n\n### Reliability: Traycer +7\n\n- Orca (58): Local software. Desktop and mobile builds and a Homebrew cask (20). Unit, end-to-end and platform test workflows; pass state not read (15). GitHub issues and pull requests weren't read (GitHub's pages refuse these sessions), so that line is scored absent (0). Tags to v1.4.251, no changelog file (8). Version 1.4 (15). 20 + 15 + 0 + 8 + 15 = 58.\n- Traycer (65): Local software. Builds for macOS, Linux and Windows, and package-manager publishing workflows (20). test.yml, CodeQL, OpenSSF Scorecard and secret scanning run on the repository; pass state not read (15). GitHub issues and pull requests weren't read (GitHub's pages refuse these sessions), so that line is scored absent (0). CHANGELOG.md (15).

No deprecation policy (5). Disclosed with an opt-out (15 of 20). 30 + 18 + 5 + 15 = 68.\n- Traycer (60): MIT (30). README privacy section and a linked privacy policy (not read) (18 of 30). CHANGELOG.md, no deprecation policy (10). Analytics described as 'may be enabled', with no opt-out given in the README (8 of 20). 30 + 18 + 10 + 8 = 66.\n\n### Agent ergonomics: Orca +5\n\n- Orca (70): Harness reading. An orchestrator agent that splits work across workers in their own workspaces, chat or raw CLI, a browser and a CLI in one app (70).\n- Traycer (65): Harness reading. Model switching within an agent, agent-to-agent loops, a CLI and cross-device sync (65).\n\n## Score by category\n\n| Category | Weight | Orca | Traycer | Edge |\n| --- | --- | --- | --- | --- |\n| Reliability | 16% (20 this run) | 58 | 65 | Traycer +7 |\n| Performance | 10%, pending | pending | pending | not scored in this run |\n| Schema \u0026 documentation | 13% (16.2 this run) | 65 | 65 | even |\n| Agent ergonomics | 13% (16.2 this run) | 70 | 65 | Orca +5 |\n| Security \u0026 auth | 14% (17.5 this run) | 43 | 42 | Orca +1 |\n| Payments \u0026 pricing | 10% (12.5 this run) | 40 | 30 | Orca +10 |\n| Task success | 10%, pending | pending | pending | not scored in this run |\n| Maintenance \u0026 community | 7% (8.8 this run) | 75 | 75 | even |\n| Transparency \u0026 trust | 7% (8.8 this run) | 54 | 60 | Traycer +6 |\n| Negative events | ≤15 | 0 | 0 | |\n| **Total** | | **57.4 · C** | **57 · C** | |\n\n## Facts side by side\n\n| Fact | Orca | Traycer |\n| --- | --- | --- |\n| Kind | Agent harness | Agent harness |\n| Vendor | Lovecast Inc. | Traycer AI |\n| Hosted endpoint | no (local only) | no (local only) |\n| Transports | | |\n| Auth | None | None |\n| Pricing | Free | Free |\n| x402 | no | no |\n| Licence | MIT | MIT |\n| Read-only variant documented | no | no |\n| llms.txt | no | no |\n| Last release | 2026-11-06 | 2026-11-06 |\n| Terms last updated | no document linked | no document linked |\n| Privacy policy last updated | no document linked | no document linked |\n\n## Verdicts\n\n**Orca.** An open-source orchestrator for coding agents with worker agents in their own worktrees, chat and terminal views, a browser and a CLI, on desktop and mobile, with heavy test automation. It collects anonymous usage data by default, and the cloud option's pricing wasn't found.\n\n**Traycer.** An open-source app for running several coding agents together with shared context, agent-to-agent messaging and team boards, on every desktop OS. Privacy Mode is opt-in for individuals, and the README says Sentry and PostHog may be on in release builds.\n\n## Before you call either\n\n### Orca\n\n1. See the telemetry docs on onorca.dev to opt out of anonymous usage data\n2. Use the orchestration CLI to hand a large task to one agent that starts workers\n\n### Traycer\n\n1. Turn on Privacy Mode if you're an individual user and don't want prompts logged\n2. CLI agents you configure send requests straight to their provider; Traycer's own inference goes through Traycer\n\n## Questions\n\n### Which is better for AI agents, Orca or Traycer?\n\nOrca and Traycer score within a point of each other on agent readiness, 57.4 (C) and 57 (C). Traycer leads on reliability and transparency \u0026 trust.\n\n### Are Orca and Traycer open source?\n\nYes. Orca is open source (MIT). Traycer is open source (MIT).\n\n\n## For agents\n\n- This comparison as JSON: https://www.anchorterminal.com/compare/orca-vs-traycer.json, and with the fewest tokens: https://www.anchorterminal.com/compare/orca-vs-traycer.min.md\n- Over MCP at https://www.anchorterminal.com/mcp (no key): `compare_tools {\"a\": \"orca\", \"b\": \"traycer\"}`.
