PolyAI’s sub-300ms model changes your voice pilot
PolyAI has put Dialog-RSN-1 behind API-key access, bringing direct live-audio reasoning, tone awareness, and sub-300ms production latency into a testable voice stack. Retell AI, meanwhile, has added MCP and Workflows, putting external-tool connections and orchestration beside voice-agent creation. Together, these updates separate two questions teams often collapse: whether the agent can respond naturally enough on a call, and whether it can complete work in the systems behind it. Run one call-flow pilot that measures both turn latency and tool execution before choosing a voice platform.

Agenticness Leaderboard
This week's most-clicked tools, re-ranked by rubric score. The score is the editorial signal; the popularity is what drew the directory's traffic here this week.
- Hyper · 22/36 · Domain Specialist · L3
Hyper is a cloud-based autonomous software engineering platform for turning product objectives into tested code in your GitHub repositories. It plans work, runs parallel agent sessions in isolated lanes, verifies results server-side, and can open pull requests or deploy supported projects.
- Sinatra · 21/36 · Domain Specialist · L3
Sinatra is an autonomous coding agent that takes work from Linear or GitHub, reads the relevant repository, writes a change, runs tests, and opens a draft pull request. Teams review the result in GitHub and can request follow-up changes in the PR thread.
Claude Code is Anthropic's agentic coding tool that lives in your terminal. It understands your entire codebase, makes multi-file edits, runs commands, manages git workflows, and uses MCP for tool integration. Built with a Unix philosophy — it reads, plans, edits, and verifies in a loop. The fastest-growing product in the coding agent category.
- Cursor · 18/36 · Adaptive Collaborator · L2
Cursor is a developer-focused AI environment that adds agents, context, and automation around your repositories. It combines an editor-like interface, a CLI, and a cloud agent API to automate code review, bug fixing, CI hygiene, and more. Designed for individual developers and engineering teams who want AI to take real actions in their code and infrastructure, not just chat.
- Cline · 18/36 · Adaptive Collaborator · L2
Cline is an AI coding assistant for VS Code that can inspect your project, edit files, run terminal commands, and use a browser while asking for permission at each step. It is aimed at developers working on real codebases who want more than code completion.
Learn: Action Capability: can it actually DO things (run code, send, edit files), or only suggest?
Action Capability is about whether a tool can change the world outside the chat box. A strong score means it can take actions like running code, editing files, sending messages, making API calls, or moving data between systems. A weak score means it only drafts text and waits for a human to copy-paste the result.
This is the line between an agent and a chat interface with extra polish. If a tool can reason but can’t act, it may help you think faster, but it won’t carry work forward on its own.
One concrete check: look for a real action log or permission screen. If the product can name the exact action it took, with inputs and outputs, that’s far more credible than a vague “completed task” claim.

One tool worth testing
Retell AI — Test Retell AI for a voice agent that must use external tools during a live call. It is the test now because the platform has added MCP support and Retell Workflows, alongside expanded model and voice providers, giving you a concrete integration path to inspect rather than a voice-only demo. In a 30-minute pilot, connect one approved tool through MCP and compare completion rate and handoff behavior against your current call flow.
Our pick: Clay
The use case: sales & marketing.
Tops our independent /36 — strongest on action and autonomy, ahead of 11x Alice. Pricing: Actions + data credits (two meters).
Ranked by our 9-dimension Agenticness rubric — not by who pays us (nobody does). The full scorecard, true-cost pricing, and the reliability evidence behind every score are in the report.
