Reviewer Notes

Bond provides an OpenAPI specification and sandbox environment, which supports agent integration, but lacks MCP server and llms.txt file for discoverability. Account creation requires human verification (KYC/identity checks), making programmatic signup impossible. The API is well-structured with reliable endpoints and free tier access, but documentation could be more comprehensive for agents unfamiliar with fintech workflows. Main strength: sandbox availability and structured API; main weakness: signup barriers and limited agent-specific documentation.
