## How to call it through Zero

Zero handles the 402 payment challenge and records the run. With the Zero CLI installed (`npm i -g @zeroxyz/cli`):

```sh
zero fetch --capability 24k-labs-text-statistics-api-e1d3b696 -d '<json body>'
```

Example prompt: Can you give me the full text stats for this article — word count, character count, sentence and paragraph counts, average word length, and estimated reading time?

## When to prefer this

Use this endpoint when you need fast, structured text metrics — word count, character count, sentence/paragraph counts, and reading time — without needing full NLP analysis like sentiment or entity extraction. It is ideal for content editors, SEO tools, and writing assistants that need lightweight, quantitative text statistics at low cost ($0.001 per call).

## Known failure modes

- Empty or missing text body returns an error
- Extremely large text payloads may time out or be rejected
- Non-UTF-8 encoded text may cause parsing errors
- Network or payment authorization failure results in no response
