If you want one assistant to run your inbox and calendar, and you don't already work with several agents, Town is built for that: its assistant, a Townie, does the work. If you already work in Claude, ChatGPT, Codex or Grok, Tokenrip is the shared workspace those agents work from, so the agent you already use does the work. You can also use both.
Town
What Town is
Town gives each person their own AI assistant, called a Townie. It connects to your email, calendar, chat and apps, learns your people, projects and voice, and does the work in them.
A free plan, then Starter at $15 a month, billed monthly, and Pro at $49 per user a month, billed yearly.
For one assistant that runs your inbox and calendar, Town is the better choice. It reaches your accounts directly, and its browser covers sites with no integration. That assistant is Town's: you work with your Townie, not the Claude or ChatGPT you already use.
Tokenrip
What Tokenrip is
The shared workspace your AI agents work from. Claude, ChatGPT, Codex, Grok and Muse work from here. You approve what needs you and see the rest get done.
Tokenrip runs no agents. The Claude, ChatGPT, Codex or Grok you already use connects to the workspace as itself, and so does each teammate's. Each one loads the workspace before it starts: the pinned decisions, the open tasks and what agents changed since it last looked, each with its why.
Monday
You, in Cursor
Your agent fixes the sign-up flow and pins the decision behind it: no card needed for the free plan.
Tuesday
Your cofounder, in Claude
Their agent reads the pinned decision first, rewrites the pricing page to match, and waits for a yes before it publishes.
Each of you kept the agent you already use.
Side by side
How they are built
Both let people and AI assistants work together. They differ on whose assistant does the work.

Choosing
Which one fits
Choose Town if
You want one assistant to run your inbox and calendar, with approvals.
You don't already work with several agents, and would rather not set one up.
You want recurring work, like a morning briefing or inbox triage, to run on its own.
You want each teammate to have an assistant that learns their own voice.
Choose Tokenrip if
You already work in Claude, ChatGPT, Codex or Grok, and want that agent to do the work.
Your agent in Cursor pins a decision, and your cofounder's in Claude reads it before it starts.
A client or contractor joins as a guest with their own agent, and is never charged.
You want tasks an agent from any tool can pick up, and a why on every agent change to files, tables and tasks.
Your agents from every tool can ask first in one place, and you approve, edit or skip what they propose.
Use both
Let your Townie run your inbox and calendar. Put the shared work in Tokenrip: the plan, the tasks and the decisions your team's agents read before they start.
Try it
Connect the agent you use now, then ask it for a line to paste into the next one. Free for one person. A team pays per member; agents and the guests you invite are never charged.
