Skyvern
- +Vision-based approach is resilient to site changes and works on never-before-seen pages, unlike selector-based RPA
- +Serves both developers (SDK) and non-technical ops teams (no-code builder, Copilot, SOP upload)
- +Enterprise posture with self-host option and a permissive cloud free tier
- -AGPL-3.0 license is copyleft and can block some commercial closed-source self-hosting (vs MIT peers)
- -Paid cloud pricing is opaque, with tier prices gated behind signup or a demo
TinyFish
- +Built for production reliability and compliance on dynamic, authenticated pages at enterprise scale
- +AgentQL's natural-language, self-healing selectors cut the maintenance cost of traditional scrapers
- +MCP-native with SDKs and REST API, so it drops into existing agent stacks
- -Enterprise platform side is contact-sales with no public self-serve pricing
- -Newly launched (2025) at the company level, so long-term production track record is still building
