What are the alternatives to Franklin?
Sato Hub lists 5 alternatives to Franklin in the Onchain Agent category as of 2026-09-13; highest Sato Scores: Clanker (47), Mode Network (43), Giza (ARMA) (37); 0 open source; 0 with an install Sato Hub reproduced. Ordered by how open, active and verifiable each one is — not by quality, and no winner is declared.
Rule · Every listing in Franklin’s own category (Onchain Agent) that carries a Sato Score, ordered by score tier, observed liveness, deploy-spec and reproduced-install evidence, and chain overlap with Franklin.
This page ranks peers on how open, active and verifiable each one is — the same evidence Sato Hub publishes everywhere else. It is not a quality, safety or performance ranking, it declares no winner, and it cannot tell you which of these fits your codebase. A Sato Score is not an audit: none of these has been security-reviewed by Sato Hub, and a listing with no earned verification is self-reported.
| # | Alternative | Sato Score | Liveness | Chains | Differs on |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| 1 | Agent that deploys tokens on Base when tagged on Farcaster. npm install clanker-sdk viem install as documented by the project — not reproduced | Medium | no signal | Base, Arbitrum, BNB Chain | Typed as framework; also on Arbitrum, BNB Chain; does not list Solana; partly open source; deploys as Hosted, Agent skill. |
| 2 | An Optimism Superchain L2 focused on AI-driven onchain finance, with configurable rules-based trading agents. no deploy spec on record | Medium | no signal | Optimism, Base, Multichain | Typed as network; also on Optimism, Multichain; does not list Solana; source availability undeclared; deploys as Hosted. |
| 3 | ARMA is Giza's autonomous agent that manages stablecoin lending positions across Base DeFi protocols on the user's behalf. npm install @gizatech/agent-sdk install as documented by the project — not reproduced | Low | no signal | Base | Typed as framework; does not list Solana; source availability undeclared; deploys as Hosted. |
| 4 | AI market-intelligence agent that publishes crypto narrative and project analysis. no deploy spec on record | Low | no signal | Base | Does not list Solana; closed source; deploys as Hosted. |

“Differs on” is derived from the records — type, chains, openness and deployment — and states a difference, never a preference. ✓ marks an earned state named as what was checked; none of them is a safety claim.

- How is this list of alternatives built?
- It is a rule over live records, not a hand-written list: every listing in Franklin's own category that carries a Sato Score, ordered by the same evidence the rest of the site ranks on — Sato Score tier, whether an endpoint answered our probe, whether a deploy spec exists and was reproduced, a sustained observed record, and chain overlap with Franklin. It is rebuilt from the records, so it changes when they do.
