How we grade them
| 1.8GPASintraWeak | 1.8GPAToolhouseWeak | |
|---|---|---|
| Value for money | DList prices run from $52 a month on the 12-month plan to $97 for a single month. Agent tools here sit at $21.25 in the middle and the dearest tenth starts at $50, so Sintra opens above that line. The site had it on sale at $15.60 and $48.50 when checked, but a standing sale isn't a price. | C$5 per 1,000 requests pay as you go, which the category price check can't compare. Costs vary by task, from 18 credits for email marketing to 96 for an image or video. |
| Free plan and trial | FNothing is free. The site advertises no free plan and no trial, so step one is paying. Every plan carries a 14-day money-back guarantee, which is a safety net, not a trial. | FNo free plan or trial on record. The page mentions free usage but gives no limits or length. |
| Features | CTwelve helpers with set jobs and one Brain AI that knows your business, and they'll send Gmail, add calendar events and post to Facebook, Instagram and LinkedIn. That's the basics covered. But you can't build an agent of your own, there's no API on record, and advanced actions come out of 250 credits a month. | CDelegated marketing and sales tasks with CRM and messaging links, but the job list is narrow and its scope is set by the vendor's task types. |
| Ease of use | B4.6 from about 2,500 App Store ratings, under the 4.7 that would make it an A. The helpers arrive ready-made, so you pick one and start typing rather than wiring anything up, and the one-click use cases cover jobs like keyword research and email campaigns. | CNo rating on record. Briefing by email is simple, but you connect CRMs and messaging tools. |
| Platforms and integrations | BWeb, iPhone and Android, with connections to Gmail, Outlook, Google Calendar, Facebook, Instagram, LinkedIn, Notion and QuickBooks. No desktop app and no API are listed, and that's what keeps it off an A. | BWeb service with Slack, Teams, HubSpot and Salesforce links and MCP. No desktop or phone app. |
| Best for | a ready-made set of helpers for a small business | AI workers briefed by email |

How this page was made
- The verdict at the top follows a fixed rule. When both tools are in the same category and either is in our top three for it, the verdict follows that ranking: the higher-placed tool is our pick. The top three weigh who each tool suits as well as its grades, so a pick can go against the GPA. Otherwise the page does not pick one and says which grades higher: the higher GPA first; on a tie, the one with a free plan, then the one that starts cheaper in dollars a month, counted the same way for both; if they are still level, what the choice depends on.
- The grades are our own, from each tool’s review or report card. The GPA is their average.
- Prices, plans and platforms come from each tool’s listing. The table above says where each price was read and when.
- The differences and the answers to the questions are worked out from those listings.
