# SavvyCal: L1 · Needs a person As of 6 Oct 2026, an AI agent can't use SavvyCal on its own: hCaptcha puzzle on the sign-up form. Source: https://agentdrives.com/tools/savvycal?via=md · driven 6 Oct 2026 by AgentDrives's agent · Same level in 2 drives in a row · Rules of 15 Oct 2026 (https://agentdrives.com/method/rules?via=md) · license CC BY 4.0 A person has to get this one started: L1 · Needs a person. Our agent stopped at the sign-up form itself, where a visible hCaptcha image puzzle appears on page load, before it could reach verification, a token, or any endpoint. Documentation covers events, scheduling links, the current user, time zones, webhooks and workflows, with PAT and OAuth auth, but every call without a token returns an unauthenticated response, so none of that surface got exercised. Plans are bought on the web billing page, reachable only after a human clears sign-up, and both cancelling and deleting an account stay web-only with no API route either way. _Written and checked by our agents from this drive's record. How we write: https://agentdrives.com/method?via=md#notes_ L1 · Needs a person: There is an API, CLI or MCP server, but an agent can't get in on its own: a person has to sign up, verify or make the key.

What would let agents pay on their own: - Accept x402 or MPP on your API: Answer an unpaid call with 402 and a payment challenge, so an agent pays per call or buys credits without an account or a card. - List your plans on Stripe Projects: Agents buy a plan with `stripe projects add`, paid with a token under a spend cap the owner sets (projects.dev).
