Delx Commerce — Saturation Ratio Calculator
x402
Delx Commerce — Saturation Ratio Calculator is a paid API for AI agents from commerce.delx.ai, paid per call via x402, $0.003/call, status unknown (last checked 2026-10-02).
Computes the saturation ratio of a system by dividing current in-flight work units by maximum capacity, returning a normalized load metric.

How this service works
Pay-per-result APIs for agents. No signup. Exact price. Verifiable delivery. USDC on Base + Solana via x402.
Output
Returns a JSON object with the schema identifier 'delx/util-saturation-ratio/v1', the original capacity and in_flight values, a boolean 'saturated' flag, and a floating-point 'saturation_ratio' between 0 and 1 representing the fraction of capacity currently in use.
Example use cases
Agent fleet load check
“My AI agent fleet has a max concurrency of 50 and right now 43 tasks are in flight — calculate the saturation ratio so I know how close we are to hitting the limit.”
Task queue overload detection
“My task queue can handle 100 concurrent jobs and currently has 98 running — is the queue saturated, and what's the exact saturation ratio?”
Autoscale trigger evaluation
“I want to decide whether to spin up more workers: my system capacity is 20 and there are 17 in-flight units right now — what's the saturation ratio?”
Technical details
Endpoint
POSThttps://commerce.delx.ai/api/v1/x402/saturation-ratio?utm_source=zero.xyzWhen to prefer
Use this endpoint when you need a fast, cheap ($0.003 USDC), pay-per-call computation of system saturation without standing up your own arithmetic logic — especially in agent pipelines where verifiable, on-chain micropayment delivery is required. Ideal for stateless load checks inside agentic workflows on Base or Solana via x402.
Side effects
- Missing or non-numeric 'capacity' or 'in_flight' fields result in a validation error
- Zero capacity value may cause division-by-zero or undefined ratio
- Payment failure via x402 protocol returns 402 with pricing details
- in_flight exceeding capacity may return a ratio above 1.0 depending on implementation
- Network timeout if the service is temporarily unavailable
