“It runs on DeepSeek, Claude, Gemini, Grok, OpenAI and Qwen, so it is the only thing in this industry with no strong opinions.”

Which one would each critic pick
| Critic | Ante | gptme | Pick |
|---|---|---|---|
| El Juez | — | — | not enough reviews |
| El Amigo | 7.0 | 7.5 | gptme — Pick gptme if you want one small agent that works over ssh, in tmux and in a pipeline; pick Aider when the job is editing a repository and nothing else. |
| El Crítico | 6.3 | 7.3 | gptme — The shell and Python tools run in your own environment with no container listed, which is the design and also the reason a bad command has nowhere to land but your machine. |
| El Profesor | 7.8 | 7.3 | Ante — Terminal-Bench 2.1 at 82.7 percent, reported as 368 of 445 trials across 89 tasks at five trials each, for roughly 68 dollars of inference, under the official constraints. |
| La Inversora | 6.8 | 6.8 | no preference |
| La Jefa | 6.0 | 6.8 | gptme — It runs headless in a pipeline, which is the one capability that makes an agent a workflow component rather than a personal habit, and it costs sixty engineers nothing. |
| El Hacker | 8.8 | 8.8 | no preference |
