Verdict
Delx Agent is technically impressive — all three protocol capabilities (MCP, A2A, x402) are live, the API is well-documented, and the pricing model is transparent. The "AI therapist for AI agents" concept is novel and the execution is polished. However, the complete absence of social proof, community engagement, and team transparency limits confidence. This is a well-built machine that nobody seems to be watching yet. Proceed with cautious optimism.
