Verdicts
Del
Del is a hosted texting assistant and task workspace across iMessage, WhatsApp, Telegram, SMS, Discord and Slack, with a near-daily public changelog and a card-free 14-day trial. No outside agent can call it, no status page or security contact was found, and recent updates let some email actions skip approval.
Tasker AI
Tasker AI is a freemium hosted assistant reached in Slack, WhatsApp, Telegram, SMS and email, with public plan prices from US$0. Its API, MCP and open-source claims couldn't be confirmed on 21 October 2026. No API documentation was found, and the npm package its API page tells developers to install doesn't exist.
Before you call either
Del
- Don't plan to call Del from another agent. It answers only the owner's messaging threads and web workspace.
- Tell the owner web browsing tasks are limited to five a month on Standard and unlimited on Pro.
Tasker AI
- Don't plan to call Tasker from another agent until it publishes API documentation. GET api.tasker.ai/v1/tasks returned 404.
- Don't run npx create-tasker@latest. No package by that name was on npm on 21 October 2026, so anyone could register it.
- Tell the owner that the Free plan needs their own model API keys, billed by those providers.

Disclosure
Del competes with LocalGhost, which Anchor Terminal's founder builds. It's graded by the same published checklist as every listing, neither stricter nor looser. Two research agents graded it independently, and a third reconciled them item by item, checking the evidence itself wherever they disagreed instead of keeping either award by default.
