- You are a non-engineer starting from an idea, or want one generated, and value a Coach that asks a few questions before anything is built.
- You want strict automation safety: automations read connected apps but never send or post, and outbound email waits for your approval.
- A demo-grade first product with sample data and Stripe payment links in your own account is enough for your current stage.

Restart suggests the task. Soloop sends the specialist.
Restart, the AI company builder on Skarmy domains, is the closer fit when you want a coached idea-to-brief-to-demo flow with strict automation safety and a plan only you can edit. Soloop is the closer fit when you already have a product and want approved tasks executed by research, social, or coding specialists rather than handed back to you.
Decision shortcut
Which operating model fits?
- You already have a repo, landing page, deck, or rough product rather than only an idea.
- You want approved research, social, or coding tasks executed for you, not only suggested.
- You want execution results, replies, and failures to shape the next proposal.
Evidence ledger
Soloop vs Restart (Skarmy), dimension by dimension.
Read each row as an operating choice, not a feature score.
Starting point
Restart (Skarmy)
“I already have an idea” or “Generate me an idea”; a Coach turns a few answers into a brief before the Builder starts.
Soloop
An existing idea, URL, repo, deck, file, demo, or half-built product.
Next move
Restart (Skarmy)
Daily task suggestions grounded in company state; delegation is documented as not live yet, so the founder does the task.
Soloop
One next-move card with a reason and success signal; a specialist executes it after approval.
Approval model
Restart (Skarmy)
The Builder needs explicit approval to publish, outbound email needs approval, and automations never send or post; external actions become drafts.
Soloop
Research, posts, code changes, credit spend, and deploys wait for founder approval.
Build and deploy
Restart (Skarmy)
The Builder ships a demo-grade web product with sample data; real signup, most third-party services, and native mobile apps are outside the current builder.
Soloop
The Coding Agent changes founder-provided code in a sandbox and prepares a deployable result.
Growth and sales
Restart (Skarmy)
Inbox email sends with daily limits, connected-app skills with per-skill permissions, and Stripe payment links in the founder's own account.
Soloop
The Analyst finds market evidence; the Social Agent runs approved Twitter/X posts and replies today.
Signals
Restart (Skarmy)
Board, tasks, inbox, and Stripe-link state feed daily suggestions; a measured outcome loop is not established.
Soloop
Replies, users, task notes, code changes, and failed attempts return to the workspace for the next call.
Ownership
Restart (Skarmy)
One plan.md that only the user edits after Restart drafts it; code, domain, and data export are not publicly established.
Soloop
Starts around the founder's existing artifacts and produces reviewable work in the founder's own context.
Packaging
Restart (Skarmy)
Free at $0, Pro at $20/month, Business at $50/month, each with five daily credits; billing is authoritative if docs conflict.
Soloop
This page makes no total-cost comparison because the two products meter different kinds of work.

Evidence boundary
What the sources establish—and what they do not.
- Restart documents a Coach that advises and keeps company context but does not build, and a Builder that builds but does not renegotiate the idea.
- Official docs state that task delegation is not live yet: Restart suggests tasks and the user performs them.
- Automations can read connected apps but never send or post; external actions become drafts, and outbound email requires user approval.
- Public plans list Free at $0, Pro at $20 per month, and Business at $50 per month as of the evidence date.
- No official rename announcement from Skarmy to Restart was found; current skarmy.ai domains carry Restart branding.
- Whether every connector in the app catalog is operational is not established.
- Code, domain, and data ownership and export procedures are not publicly established.

FAQ
Questions founders ask before switching.
Is Soloop a Restart (Skarmy) alternative?
Yes, when you want an AI system to coordinate founder work around a product. Restart today coaches an idea into a brief, builds a demo-grade product, and suggests daily tasks the founder performs. Soloop proposes one next move from an existing artifact and, after approval, a specialist agent executes it.
Does Restart perform the tasks it suggests?
Not according to its current documentation. Task delegation is described as not live yet; Restart grounds suggestions in company state while the user performs them. Automations can read connected apps but never send or post.
How much does Restart cost?
As of September 1, 2026, plans list Free at $0, Pro at $20 per month, and Business at $50 per month, each with five daily credits. Free is limited to three task suggestions, two active automations, and 20 email sends per day; paid tiers receive five suggestions, ten automations, and 200 sends per day. Billing is authoritative if documentation conflicts.
