Alone this would be Lindy's -3 for a pricing-page answer the vendor's own pages contradict (https://www.skydive.com/assets/main-MHOpsky7.js, https://www.skydive.com/privacy).", "2) Certification, one of the three. The home page says \"SOC 2 compliant\" twice and the site footer shows a badge with the alt text \"SOC 2 Type 1\", while the DPA (7.2) says that as of 29 July 2026 Create is pursuing SOC 2 compliance and does not represent that any SOC 2 or ISO 27001 report or certification has been completed, and the privacy policy says Create is pursuing SOC 2.

The Secrets, Network controls and Permissioning pages say the agent never sees a secret, that it \"was never in the sandbox to begin with\" and that the design \"removes the whole class of risk\", and the pricing FAQ says secrets are \"never shown to the model\". The platform CLI, which the docs say is inside every agent's sandbox, lists `secrets get` to read a value and `secrets download --plain` to print raw values, and the OpenAPI description of setAgentSecret says the value becomes an environment variable in the sandbox. Alone this would be at least the -2 Picoclaw and OpenInstinct took for a security claim the product doesn't keep.

Release notes mention email draft approval only in passing\n\n### Skydive (D)\n\nGood for: A person or team who wants hosted agents with their own cloud computers, memory and connected apps, reachable in Slack, email, text and a CLI, and who can drive them from scripts through the CLI.\n\nAhead on:\n- Schema \u0026 documentation, 81 against 42\n- Agent ergonomics, 59 against 30\n- Security \u0026 auth, 59 against 24\n- Payments \u0026 pricing, 35 against 30\n- Maintenance \u0026 community, 56 against 31\n- Transparency \u0026 trust, 75 against 59\n\nAlso in its favour:\n- A hosted endpoint, with nothing to install\n- Free to start without a card\n\nWatch for: The API has no operation for sending an agent a task.

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**Skydive.** Skydive publishes an OpenAPI 3.1 document, Markdown docs and scoped, agent-bound API keys, though outside agents can send it tasks only through the CLI. Its status page records several major incidents, including a 25-hour Agent Hosting outage, and its home and pricing pages say data is never used for training while the privacy policy turns training on by default.\n\n## Before you call either\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### Skydive\n\n1. Send tasks with `skydive chat -p \"...\" --agent \u003cid\u003e --json` and pass `--conversation \u003cid\u003e` from the JSON to keep context. The REST API can't send a task.\n2. Don't retry `chat -p` or a create blindly after a timeout. There's no idempotency key, so list agents or keys before retrying.\n3. Ask the owner for an agent-bound `use` key when you only need to read. Account-level `edit` keys can create agents and mint keys.\n4. Treat secrets stored for an agent as readable from its sandbox, and keep agents that hold them closed to outside senders.\n5. Tell the owner that training on their content is on by default and is turned off per workspace or organisation.\n\n## Questions\n\n### Which is better for AI agents, Poke or Skydive?\n\nSkydive scores 52.1 (D) on agent readiness against Poke's 37.7 (F), and leads in 6 of 7 scored categories. Poke leads on reliability.\n\n\n## For agents\n\n- This comparison as JSON: https://www.anchorterminal.com/compare/poke-vs-skydive.json, and with the fewest tokens: https://www.anchorterminal.com/compare/poke-vs-skydive.min.md\n- Over MCP at https://www.anchorterminal.com/mcp (no key): `compare_tools {\"a\": \"poke\", \"b\": \"skydive\"}`.
