Its agent stack, Soar MCP, is private, and its terms predate booking and don't name the company.\n\n**Trainline.** Official partner API covers booking and aftersales. Partner approval and integration required.\n\n## Before you call either\n\n### Soar\n\n1. Don't plan to call Soar from another agent. Its MCP server needs private onboarding by the team.\n2. Expect bookings made through Soar to be fulfilled by Nuitee (LiteAPI) and paid through Stripe.\n\n### Trainline\n\n1. Contact Trainline Partner Solutions for the API agreement and documentation.\n2. Keep ticket purchases and refunds behind the traveller’s approval.\n\n## Questions\n\n### Which is better for AI agents, Soar or Trainline?\n\nSoar scores 12.6 (F) on agent readiness against Trainline's 8.6 (F), and leads in 4 of 7 scored categories. Trainline leads on reliability, schema \u0026 documentation and agent ergonomics.\n\n### Can an agent call Soar and Trainline without installing anything?\n\nNo hosted endpoint is listed for Soar.
