It is a free public beta with unpublished daily limits and no per-token price, reasoning can't be turned off, and three API incidents were posted between 14 and 16 October 2026.\n\n**Simplismart.** Simplismart exposes open models through an OpenAI-compatible endpoint with public per-token prices and expiring, revocable keys. Its public docs give no request rate limits, status page, retry guidance, tool-calling or structured-output reference, and its terms and privacy policy cover the website, not API data.\n\n## Before you call either\n\n### Beam 1.0\n\n1. Send `reasoning_effort` `low` or `medium` for short tasks. The default is `max`, and `none` or `minimal` return `400 unsupported_value`\n2. Return every assistant message with its `reasoning_content` unchanged. If a turn comes back without it, start a new conversation, since later requests fail with `missing_required_parameter`\n3. Don't rely on `stop` or `seed`. Both are accepted and ignored, so truncate output in your own code\n4. Honour `x-should-retry: false` on a 429. It means a daily limit is spent and `Retry-After` counts to 00:00 UTC\n5. Set `max_completion_tokens` yourself on long prompts. The default budget isn't reduced to fit the prompt and includes reasoning tokens\n\n### Simplismart\n\n1. Point an OpenAI-compatible client at https://api.simplismart.live with SIMPLISMART_API_KEY as a Bearer token, and take model ids from the marketplace or the per-model API pages.\n2. Set a key expiry and rotate before midnight UTC on the expiry date, because an expired key returns 401.\n3. Cap retries yourself with exponential backoff, because no rate limits, 429 format or retry guidance are published.\n4. Check that a model supports tools or JSON output with a test call before relying on it, because neither is documented.\n5. Confirm the per-token price of the exact model in the console before running large jobs, because the public price list is incomplete.\n\n## Questions\n\n### Which is better for AI agents, Beam 1.0 or Simplismart?\n\nBeam 1.0 scores 53.4 (D) on agent readiness against Simplismart's 29.7 (F), and leads in 6 of 7 scored categories. Simplismart leads on payments \u0026 pricing.\n\n### Do Beam 1.0 and Simplismart need an API key?\n\nBoth need an API key.\n\n### Can an agent call Beam 1.0 and Simplismart without installing anything?\n\nYes. Beam 1.0 has a hosted endpoint at https://api.reflection.ai/openai/v1 and Simplismart at https://api.simplismart.live.\n\n\n## For agents\n\n- This comparison as JSON: https://www.anchorterminal.com/compare/reflection-beam-vs-simplismart.json, and with the fewest tokens: https://www.anchorterminal.com/compare/reflection-beam-vs-simplismart.min.md\n- Over MCP at https://www.anchorterminal.com/mcp (no key): `compare_tools {\"a\": \"reflection-beam\", \"b\": \"simplismart\"}`.
