Delegmate vs Hermes Agent: a managed teammate or an open-source agent?

Hermes Agent is an open-source agent from Nous Research that you host yourself. It remembers across sessions, writes its own skills after hard tasks, and talks to you over apps like Telegram, Discord, Slack, WhatsApp or Signal. Delegmate is a managed teammate for companies, with its own Google Workspace account and nothing to run.
