Qiu vs Twin
Twin helps you build agents that repeat a process. Qiu is a coworker with memory that you hand the task to, and it asks before doing anything sensitive.
Reviewed: November 2026
Choose based on how you work
You want to hand the work over
- You'd rather hand the work to a coworker that coordinates it (niche coworkers plus a coworker-manager that splits the work) than design and maintain workflows.
- You want to talk to your agent on Telegram or the web, and have it ask for approval with a "Confirm" card before sensitive actions or anything involving money.
- You already pay for Claude or ChatGPT. Connect it, and those runs cost nothing extra in Qiu.
- You want your whole team to use it with no per-seat fee and several agents at once (Business plan, €299/mo).
You want to build your own agents
- You want to build lots of agents yourself, one per repetitive process, by describing them in plain language and refining them in its builder.
- You need to connect niche tools. Twin's integrations page lists 41,706 apps.
- You want to offer ready-made agents to your clients, with a dashboard for each one (Plus and Pro allow up to 5 clients; the Store plan, from $399/mo, removes that cap).
- You're happy for the platform to manage the AI model, and you want visible security badges (its pricing page shows ISO 27001 and SOC 2 Type I and II).
Qiu and Twin, row by row
| Feature | Qiu | Twin |
|---|---|---|
| The agent | Specialist coworkers (sales, support, marketing…) plus a coworker-manager that splits and coordinates the work between them. | Agents that Twin designs from your description. An "Orchestrator" with context on the whole workspace creates, edits and deletes agents. |
| Where it runs | In Qiu's cloud, in Europe (Germany), as a managed service. A real browser, plus a desktop app for Windows, Mac and Linux (phase 1). | In Twin's cloud, in isolated sandboxes. The browser agent uses a dedicated cloud computer. The pages we checked don't say which region holds the data. |
| How you start | 15-day free trial, no card. Message it on Telegram or the web. | Describe the outcome in its builder (builder.twin.so). Its docs describe a 14-day trial with 1,000 credits on day one and 200 more each day. |
| Your team | Workspaces with members and permissions. Coworkers work together through consent routing and the orchestrator. | Workspaces where agents share context. You can share agents with teammates, depending on workspace settings. Teammate invites, shared wallets and member caps come with the Custom plan. |
| Connecting apps | API connectors (Google, Microsoft 365, Slack, GoHighLevel, banking via Ponto, Brevo…) and a real browser where there's no API. It also builds and publishes websites and apps. | 41,706 apps according to its integrations page. Event, schedule, webhook and REST API triggers. A browser agent when there's no API. |
| What you pay | Personal €29/mo, Pro €99/mo, Business €299/mo. If you bring your own Claude or ChatGPT, those runs cost nothing extra. | Its pricing page: Plus $29/mo, Pro $149/mo, Store from $399/mo ("no credits"). Its docs still describe credit-based Pro tiers from $20/€20 a month (2,000 credits). Enterprise is custom. |

What changes day to day
A task that keeps going when nobody's watching
Give Qiu a goal and it moves from listening to working in the background, day and night, until the job is done. After a restart, it picks up where it left off instead of starting over. Twin also runs its agents in managed environments in its cloud, started by triggers in the background. It has a "Build" mode for creating an agent and a cheaper "Run" mode for repeating it.
It remembers you, your team and what things mean
Qiu keeps a personal memory that carries across chats, a memory for each group, and semantic search to find what matters even when you use different words. Twin splits memory another way: agents in a workspace share context, and a "User Memory" carries your preferences from one workspace to the next.
Routines, watches, and you in charge of the sensitive stuff
A typical day for Qiu: it starts its routines, keeps an eye on what you asked it to watch, browses and logs into sites, fills in forms and, on desktop, works in apps like Illustrator, Photoshop or InDesign. Before a payment or any sensitive action it shows you a "Confirm" card, and if a captcha, code or password comes up, it asks you. Twin's browser agent pauses at login screens so you can sign in, then carries on. It asks your permission before launching a browser task, but its docs tie that prompt to cost, not to how sensitive the action is.
Bring your Claude or ChatGPT
With Qiu you connect your Claude or ChatGPT subscription, and those runs cost nothing extra. Your plan covers the rest. On Twin, usage depends on the plan and, depending on which of its pages you read, on credits. Its official pages don't mention bringing your own model. On integrations, Twin advertises a very large catalog. Qiu pairs direct connectors (Google, Microsoft 365, Slack, GoHighLevel, Ponto, Brevo) with a real browser for everything else.
From Twin to Qiu in 3 steps
- List your Twin agents.
Write down what each one does, what triggers it (schedule, event, webhook) and which apps it connects to.
- Start your Qiu trial and connect the same apps.
15 days, no card. Link Google, Microsoft 365, Slack or your CRM, and bring your Claude or ChatGPT if you already pay for it.
- Turn each agent into a routine or a coworker.
Tell Qiu on Telegram or the web what the agent used to do, set the routine, and decide what needs your "Confirm".
Before you decide
Does Qiu have as many integrations as Twin?
Not by count. Twin lists 41,706 apps. Qiu has direct connectors for Google, Microsoft 365, Slack, GoHighLevel, banking via Ponto, Brevo and more, and uses a real browser for sites without a connector.
Can I use my Claude or ChatGPT subscription?
In Qiu, yes, and those runs cost nothing extra. The official Twin pages we checked don't mention bringing your own model or key.
Which one is cheaper?
It depends on usage. Qiu costs €29, €99 or €299 a month. Twin's pricing page shows $29, $149 and from $399 a month, while its docs describe credit tiers from $20/€20. Compare against the number of tasks you actually run.
Where is my data?
Qiu is a managed service in Qiu's cloud, and before any sensitive action it asks for your approval with a "Confirm" card. Twin runs agents in isolated sandboxes in its cloud and encrypts credentials at rest. The pages we checked don't name a region.
Can I build agents for my clients?
That's what Twin offers: Plus and Pro include dashboards for up to 5 clients, and the Store plan (from $399/mo) removes the cap, with an agent tuned to each client. Qiu is built for your own team: on the Business plan (€299/mo), everyone on your team uses it with no per-seat fee and several agents at once, with your own AI (your Claude or ChatGPT).
Can I talk to Qiu on WhatsApp?
No. Today Qiu works on Telegram and the web.
