Key features
  • Build agents from plain language
  • Scheduled / automatic runs

  • Memory, code & search
  • Custom agents
  • AI slide decks
  • Workspaces

  • Custom agent building for sales, support, recruiting and ops workflows
Pros
  • Builds a custom agent from a plain-language description, so non-engineers can create bespoke automations
  • Scheduled and automatic runs let agents work on a recurring basis without manual triggering
  • Connectors plus built-in, custom and open-source skills make agents extensible to your own stack
  • Low $20 Pro entry to trial real custom agents, with memory, code and search included
  • Positioned to act (not just answer) and to build workflows rather than just front-end apps
  • Learns and adapts to an individual's writing and scheduling style rather than using generic templates
  • Hundreds of integrations cover most common productivity tools (Gmail, Outlook, Slack, Notion, calendars)
  • Clear, published tiered pricing — a rarity in the AI agent category, where most competitors hide behind 'contact sales'
  • Reported adoption inside recognizable companies (Shopify, Apple, Adobe, McKinsey, Nvidia)
  • No long-term contract required — cancel anytime after the 7-day trial
Cons
  • Credit-based — complex or frequently-scheduled agents burn through the monthly allowance quickly, and only +5 daily credits cushion that
  • Building reliable custom agents has a real learning curve compared with running a prebuilt one
  • Priority support is Pro Plus ($50) and above; the $20 Pro tier gets standard support only
  • New product with limited independent review — the reliability of long-running scheduled agents and the stability of connectors have not been independently verified
  • No ongoing free tier — only a 7-day trial, then it's a paid plan starting at $49.99/month or nothing
  • Credit-based usage makes real monthly cost unpredictable; reviewers report overages with limited warning
  • Error handling can be weak — a failed action may fail silently instead of alerting you
  • Independent reviews report a low Trustpilot score (2.4/5) despite endorsements from tech influencers
  • Not built for high-volume phone/call automation the way Vapi or Retell AI are

Read the full Creao AI review

Creao AI is an AI agent builder: you describe what you need in plain language and it builds a custom agent that does the job, then keeps it around to run on a schedule or on demand. It leans toward building your own agents rather than picking prebuilt ones — with memory, code, search, all connectors and built-in, custom and open-source 'skills' available from the Pro plan. Agents can run automatically on schedules, connect to your other tools, and compound work over time. Creao positions itself against both chat assistants (it acts, not just answers) and app builders like Lovable, v0 or Bolt (it builds agents and workflows, not just front-ends). It runs on a credit model with a free tier (30 one-time credits plus 5 daily) and paid Pro, Pro Plus and Max plans that scale monthly credits and support. Creao AI is a new product, and the reliability of its long-running scheduled agents and connector stability have not been independently verified.

Lindy is an AI executive assistant that handles email management and drafting, meeting scheduling, meeting notes and recaps, and task/follow-up tracking, communicating with users over SMS/iMessage. It observes how a user writes emails, responds to messages and handles their calendar to match their communication style, and connects to hundreds of tools including Gmail, Outlook, Google Calendar, Slack and Notion, cross-referencing multiple apps without needing explicit commands. Beyond the built-in assistant, Lindy can be used to build custom agents for sales, support, recruiting, operations and healthcare workflows. Plans run Plus at $49.99/month, Pro at $99.99/month (3x usage, computer use, model selection), Max at $199.99/month (7x usage), and a custom Enterprise tier with HIPAA, SSO, SCIM and audit logs. There's no ongoing free tier — only a 7-day free trial with Plus features — and no long-term contract is required.
