Shortwave
Agentic AI that helps you organize, write, search, schedule, and more with just a prompt
Our verdict
Shortwave describes itself as agentic AI that helps you organize, write, search, schedule, and more with just a prompt. No free tier is advertised, though pricing is at least public. Developer documentation and a public changelog are both maintained, which is a good sign for anything you intend to build on. We have not verified the prices by hand, so we do not quote them here. Everything above was checked on 2026-08-28.

Questions
Is Shortwave free?
We found no free tier or trial advertised on Shortwave’s own site. Check the vendor’s pricing page, since this can change.
How much does Shortwave cost?
Shortwave publishes pricing on its own site, listing 3 plans. We deliberately do not republish prices we have not verified by hand, because automated price extraction proved unreliable enough to mislead. Use the link on this page for current figures.
Does Shortwave have an API or developer docs?
Yes, Shortwave publishes developer documentation.
How is Shortwave scored here?
Shortwave scores 5.8 out of 10. That comes from a desk review of public evidence, which is capped at 8.5 out of 10: public pricing, documentation, maintenance signals and how much we could actually verify. Affiliate relationships are excluded from scoring entirely. The full rubric is published on our methodology page.
