| Free plan and trial | F | Nothing free is offered: there is no free plan and no trial. |

Where it stands
Its grades against its category, and whether to keep it or make your own
11/101
Other AI agents it is graded above
Thoughtly's GPA of 1.8 is higher than 11 of the 101 other AI agents we grade, and level with 14.
It stands best on platforms and integrations (B, above 20 of 101) and worst on free plan and trial (F, above 0).
Each grade against the category
Every bar is all 102 AI agents we grade, cut by the letter each got. Thoughtly’s own letter is outlined.
- CValue for moneyAbove 17 of 101
- FFree plan and trialAbove 0 of 101
- CFeaturesAbove 1 of 101
- CEase of useAbove 14 of 101
- BPlatforms and integrationsAbove 20 of 101
Keep it, or make your own?
Whether this is something you could build for yourself with an AI app builder, and what you would give up.
Keep it
To replace Thoughtly you would be making an AI agent, with the models and the safeguards behind it. That is not a weekend's work, with an AI app builder or without one.
That makes this kind of software worth paying for, not this one in particular: 76 of the 101 other AI agents grade higher.
What you could not
- An AI agent, with the models and the safeguards behind it.
- Connections to other products, each kept working as those products change.
- A voice model trained on your recordings.
What this rests on. Thoughtly’s listing: what it does, where it runs, what it plugs into and what it costs. It is a judgement about the kind of software this is. We have not built a replacement for it, and making your own means looking after it too. How we decide, and every tool’s verdict.
