How to read these profiles
Each profile lists what the product does, how it coordinates agents, which protocols it supports, how it is deployed and priced, and where it fits next to a collaboration layer. Facts come from the vendor's own pages, linked at the end of each profile, reviewed in September 2026. Scores are editorial assessments against the rubric in How we score.
