Messaging Agents: A Directory for AI You Can Text
An independent directory comparing AI agents reachable through iMessage, WhatsApp, SMS, voice calls, and related channels.
Field notes
The directory treats a messaging agent as an AI system reached through an existing texting channel, often by sending a message to a phone number instead of installing a separate interface. Its visible inventory covers 30 agents and tracks onboarding, channels, and pricing, with examples ranging from free trials to $99 monthly plans. Builder-facing material extends beyond the catalog into comparisons of nine iMessage routes, WhatsApp providers, SMS costs, and 10DLC readiness.
