Which one would each critic pick
| Critic | Superset | Verdent | Pick |
|---|---|---|---|
| El Juez | — | — | not enough reviews |
| El Amigo | 7.0 | 6.5 | Superset — Pick Superset if you run Claude Code, Codex, Gemini CLI, Copilot or Kimi Code side by side and want a browser next to the diff; pick Orca if you want the same thing under MIT. |
| El Crítico | 6.3 | 6.0 | Superset — Remote access is beta, the mobile app is coming soon, and the tagline promises 100-plus agents in parallel on a host with no sandbox; the ambition outruns the shipped parts. |
| El Profesor | 6.5 | 7.0 | Verdent — A goal is decomposed into stages, subtasks, dependencies and acceptance criteria, and a verifier subagent drives a browser to capture screenshots and logs as evidence of the result. |
| La Inversora | 7.0 | 5.8 | Superset — YC-backed with Pro at $15 a seat billed yearly, a logo wall with Microsoft, OpenAI and Amazon on it, and a licence that keeps clouds from reselling it; the pricing power is real. |
| La Jefa | 6.5 | 5.5 | Superset — SAML SSO, SCIM, audit logs, a SOC 2 Type II report and IP restrictions all sit in an Enterprise tier priced by sales on annual billing; approved with conditions. |
| El Hacker | 5.3 | 6.8 | Verdent — Closed source, and yet both escape hatches are on every plan: my own keys drive the built-in agent, and worker tasks can be handed to Codex or Claude Code on my own machine. |
