What our research says

Logic

Logic replaces custom agent infrastructure with a spec you write once and deploy as an API, which suits teams that don't want to run their own orchestration layer. The tradeoff is that agent logic lives inside Logic's own spec format and hosting, so leaving means rebuilding the deployment layer elsewhere.

Pros

  • Deploys an agent as a typed REST API without separate infra work
  • Routes requests across multiple model providers instead of one
  • Logs every execution for debugging and audits
  • States SOC 2 Type II and HIPAA coverage

Cons

  • Pricing detail beyond the four listed tiers isn't published
  • Agent logic is locked into Logic's own spec format
  • Free tier limits aren't disclosed on the marketing pages

Vellum

An ambitious personal agent that pairs deep memory with real tool access, and the MIT-licensed runtime is a rare escape hatch in this category. The company is visibly mid-pivot - its docs subdomain still describes the earlier enterprise LLM platform - so expect product churn and check that plan credits cover your actual usage.

Pros

  • Persistent memory plus real actions, not just chat
  • Open-source MIT runtime allows self-hosting without platform fees
  • Wide surface: web, macOS, iOS, CLI, Slack, Telegram
  • Transparent hosted pricing with defined compute and credit bundles

Cons

  • Brand confusion: documentation and older coverage describe a different enterprise product
  • Usage credits on top of the subscription make heavy use costlier than the sticker price
  • Company details for the current product are thin on the site

Which one fits

Choose Logic if you need

  • Engineering teams shipping internal AI agents without building infra
  • Companies that need SOC 2 / HIPAA-covered agent hosting
  • Teams that want one API across multiple model providers

Choose Vellum if you need

  • Individuals who want one assistant with memory across email, calendar and chat
  • Tinkerers willing to self-host an open-source assistant runtime
  • Mac-centric users who want a native app plus mobile and Slack access
