A flat price, not credits per task

Operator is $20 a month with GPT usage in the plan and room to add Claude, Gemini, or your own key. Lindy meters by credits, where every task costs at least one, most cost a few, and the stronger models run about ten a task. Each Lindy plan comes with a monthly pool, and once it is gone the work keeps going at twice the rate unless you move up a tier, with nothing carried into the next month. With Operator the bill stays the same whether the agent runs once or all day.

One agent for the whole job

You give Operator the outcome in a sentence and it works out the steps across Gmail, Slack, Notion, GitHub, and your other apps over OAuth, reading a repo to open a pull request, running research, posting to social, and triaging your inbox. Lindy keeps to the coordination loop of email, meetings, notes, and follow ups, and says plainly it is not built for coding or creative work, so it is turnkey there while Operator also covers the code, research, and posting.

Yours to run, open underneath

Operator runs on a hosted instance that belongs to you, built on the open source OpenClaw framework, with persistent memory and a workspace of files it keeps between jobs, and you reach it on Telegram and Discord. Lindy is a cloud product reached through its web app, email, Slack, and iMessage or SMS, with deep native integrations and SOC 2, HIPAA, and GDPR coverage that suit teams handling regulated data. Where the open framework and your own instance matter, Operator is the one to pick.
