Which one would each critic pick
| Critic | II-Agent | Kortix | Pick |
|---|---|---|---|
| El Juez | — | — | not enough reviews |
| El Amigo | 6.5 | 6.3 | II-Agent — Pick this when you want finished artefacts out the other end rather than edits to a repo; pick Manus if you would rather someone else ran the whole thing. |
| El Crítico | 5.8 | 5.5 | II-Agent — It holds live tokens for Gmail, Slack, GitHub, Notion, Dropbox and Canva in one place, and the same process also drives a browser and a shell. |
| El Profesor | 6.5 | 6.5 | no preference |
| La Inversora | 6.3 | 7.0 | Kortix — Twenty thousand stars and a free tier metered at 200 sandbox credits, with enterprise terms behind a conversation, is open-source distribution converted into a compute margin. |
| La Jefa | 5.5 | 5.5 | no preference |
| El Hacker | 7.8 | 7.8 | no preference |
