Ahead on: - Reliability, 41 against 15 - Payments & pricing, 60 against 40 - Maintenance & community, 83 against 68 Also in its favour: - Open source Watch for: No API key, MCP server or A2A endpoint, and the /api routes need the owner's browser session. ### Zo Computer (E) Good for: One person who wants a hosted assistant with its own Linux machine, reachable by text message and chat apps, and who accepts that the assistant acts on connected accounts without a documented approval step. Ahead on: - Schema & documentation, 73 against 0 - Agent ergonomics, 34 against 0 - Security & auth, 37 against 8 - Transparency & trust, 60 against 52 Also in its favour: - A hosted endpoint, with nothing to install Watch for: The access token for the API and MCP endpoint grants full access to the workspace, with no scoped or read-only token documented ## Score by category | Category | Weight | Talorys | Zo Computer | Edge | | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | | Reliability | 16% (20 this run) | 41 | 15 | Talorys +26 | | Performance | 10%, pending | pending | pending | not scored in this run | | Schema & documentation | 13% (16.2 this run) | 0 | 73 | Zo Computer +73 | | Agent ergonomics | 13% (16.2 this run) | 0 | 34 | Zo Computer +34 | | Security & auth | 14% (17.5 this run) | 8 | 37 | Zo Computer +29 | | Payments & pricing | 10% (12.5 this run) | 60 | 40 | Talorys +20 | | Task success | 10%, pending | pending | pending | not scored in this run | | Maintenance & community | 7% (8.8 this run) | 83 | 68 | Talorys +15 | | Transparency & trust | 7% (8.8 this run) | 52 | 60 | Zo Computer +8 | | Negative events | ≤15 | 0 | 0 | | | **Total** | | **28.9 · F** | **43.1 · E** | | ## Facts side by side | Fact | Talorys | Zo Computer | | --- | --- | --- | | Kind | Platform | HTTP API | | Vendor | Roc Yu (rociiu) and contributors | Zo Computer Company | | Hosted endpoint | no (local only) | `https://api.zo.computer/mcp` | | Transports | | HTTP | | Auth | OAuth or key | API key | | Pricing | Free | Freemium | | x402 | no | no | | Licence | MIT (Copyright 2026 The Talorys contributors).

It is two days old at version 0.1.5, has no mail, calendar or payment connections, and no interface for an outside agent. **Zo Computer.** Zo publishes an OpenAPI file, Markdown docs, plan prices and a named list of the providers that receive user content. One access token grants full access to the workspace, no approval step before sending or buying was found in the reviewed docs, and no status page, rate limit or SLA is published. ## Before you call either ### Talorys 1. Run `npx create-talorys@latest` with Node.js 22 or later and a Cloudflare login or an API token with Workers, Pages and Workers AI permissions. 2. Don't script the /api routes. They need the owner's session cookie and CSRF header and aren't documented for other callers. 3. Update with `npx create-talorys@latest update`. Only the latest version gets security fixes. ### Zo Computer 1. Send `POST https://api.zo.computer/zo/ask` with `Authorization: Bearer zo_sk_...` and an `input` string. The owner creates the token under Settings > Advanced 2. Pass `persona_id` for a persona with a narrow tool set. The token itself carries every permission the owner has 3. Set `memory_mode` to `off` to keep workspace memory out of a request. The field is in the OpenAPI file and absent from the API guide 4. Do not retry `/zo/ask` blindly after a timeout. No idempotency key is documented and the request may already have sent a message 5. Append `.md` to any guide or reference URL for Markdown ## Questions ### Which is better for AI agents, Talorys or Zo Computer?

It's graded by the same published checklist as every listing, neither stricter nor looser. Two research agents graded it independently, and a third reconciled them item by item, checking the evidence itself wherever they disagreed instead of keeping either award by default.
