AI agent: reviews, statistics and news
Agents that take a goal, plan the steps, use tools and finish the job, for work and for personal use. Each one will be given the same ten tasks and tested on task completion, accuracy, tool use, browser use, reliability, safety, memory, speed and what it costs.
Every general-purpose AI agent I follow
Every general-purpose AI agent I follow, in alphabetical order. None has been through my bench yet: each one is queued for the nine tests, and the first reviews appear here as they are finished. The statistics measure 9 of them each month. 15 more listed tools are not measured here: 6 are measured in the category of their main product and 9 live on domains whose traffic is mostly another product. Each of those is marked on its card.
