A source-linked comparison across the complete Podium ADE rubric. 4 criteria have sourced findings for both products; 4 were also cross-checked by a second agent for both. 20 rows have at least one sourced finding, including 20 with an agent-cross-checked finding. No score or winner is inferred.
Each finding carries its own verification status, scope and dates. Humans approve the rubric, templates and prototype; they do not review every finding. An agent source cross-check is not a hands-on product test. A missing sourced finding is not evidence that a capability is absent.

Judgment rule. Use a disclosed fixture of 12 task/agent states across several epics, including blocked, failed, awaiting input, reviewing and completed work. Locate parent/child relationships, dependencies, attention needs, history and workload without reading every transcript. Record navigation steps and errors. Boards, graphs, waterfalls, timelines or another interface can qualify; no required visual form. State whether the fixture was simulated or used live agents.

Workflow flexibility and orchestration visibility
Judgment rule. Compare a quick interactive change with a growing epic. Record mandatory workflow/preset selection, natural-language configuration, per-agent model/effort control, changes during execution and whether the UI exposes what actually ran. Test a coordinator with two reviewer children; capture roles, relationships and results during work and after completion. Document discoverability and auth friction without judging an unsupported magic prompt as proof of missing capability.

Useful free tier and evaluation access
Judgment rule. Distinguish an ongoing free tier, time-limited trial, credits-only trial, open-source self-hosting costs, paid-only access and gated early access. Map which shared scenarios work for free, especially two-person collaboration, BYO subscriptions, remote compute, mobile, issue management and review. Record card requirement, usage caps and whether meaningful evaluation needs payment or sales approval.

Pricing transparency
Judgment rule. Record publicly stated units, included limits, overage rates, compute/model pass-through or markup, minimum commitment, cancellation and sales-only unknowns. Use transparent, partially specified, quote-only or unknown, with named missing fields. A quote-only enterprise price is a disclosed procurement constraint, not proof of dishonesty.
