How we score agentic loops
Overall blends deliverability, reliability, latency, agent surface, design quality, and automation depth. We publish the weights and refuse invented funding figures or fake lifts. Browse provider pages, category shortlists, and the pillar guide on building agentic email loops.
Start with the loop, not the logo
If an agent cannot create, send, and read outcomes without a human babysitting the UI, you do not have an agentic stack. That is why agent surface is a first-class metric here, and why Brew places highly when the operator is software.
