many people were surprised i put Hermes as the #1# agent in my list. zero doubts for me > Hermes is open source, and the team is super hardworking and fixes stuff almost instantly you have model switching, persistent memory, skills it builds from past tasks… soo much freedom and so much you can do.. > Grok: bots coordinating on longer workflows, their own computer, very good UX and easy for newcomers to get into. usage limits hold it back a bit.. > Muse: persistent cloud VM, a dedicated browser agent and API integrations…it can work across apps and keep going after you close it, without you maintaining a server... very good, I would put it A in coming few months > Openclaw : fell from S to D for me in no time because they can’t seem to ship consistent builds that don’t need fixing after updates… still plenty of control, which i like, but maintaining the setup is painful > dots : proactive monitoring is interesting, but connection issues, permissions and tasks stopping need work… feels so annoying… product feels so rushed
