Choose Click if

Product and backend teams that want to embed long-running, tool-using agents in their app without building agent infrastructure.

  • Model-agnostic, so you are not locked to one LLM vendor
  • Full platform on every plan, including the free tier
  • Swappable sandbox, browser and search providers

Look elsewhere if: No-code teams that want a visual agent builder rather than an API (Relevance AI).

Choose GitHub if

Software teams of any size that want hosted Git, CI/CD, security scanning and AI coding help in one platform.

  • Industry standard with the largest developer community
  • Generous free plan including private repos and CI minutes
  • Huge marketplace of Actions and integrations

Look elsewhere if: Teams that need deep issue tracking or a single self-managed DevSecOps suite (Jira, GitLab).
