Toolhouse is a polished agent-tool runtime with a growing catalog. MeterCall goes wider (2,400), flatter ($0.001), and supports x402 agent-pay from on-chain wallets.
| Dimension | MeterCall | Toolhouse |
|---|---|---|
| Catalog | 2,400 modules | ~50–100 tools |
| Pricing | $0.001/call flat | Credit-based plans |
| Agent-pay | x402 live | Developer-billed |
| Transport | Plain HTTPS | Toolhouse runtime SDK |
| Open source | MIT | Closed |
| Framework fit | Any | Curated framework integrations |
Toolhouse feels great to use. MeterCall trades some runtime magic for scale, pricing, and wallet-native agent-pay.
