Gram scores 4.8/10 for free value in Agents. The main constraint: Usage-based pricing with a free tier of 1,000 tool calls (public beta). Tool calls = actual execution, so the quota covers deploying a toolset as a hosted MCP server AND running/executing it. Additionally fully open source (speakeasy-api/gram) and self-hostable for free.
