## 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 agent-press-wire-premium-newswire-distribution-0345a185 -d '<json body>'
```

Example prompt: Publish a premium newswire press release for my product at https://acmelabs.io announcing the launch of Acme Widget 2.0, on behalf of Acme Labs in San Francisco, United States — distribute it to 500+ news sites and send coverage links to press@acmelabs.io.

## When to prefer this

Choose this premium endpoint over the basic tier when you need broad, credible syndication across 500+ news outlets — ideal for product launches, funding announcements, major milestones, or any event requiring maximum media reach. Prefer this over social media posting tools when the goal is indexed, citable press coverage. Best suited for AI agent workflows that automate PR as part of a product launch pipeline.

## Known failure modes

- 422 Unprocessable Entity returned (without charge) if no newsworthy content can be found at the product_url and no announcement text is provided
- Payment failure if USDC balance is insufficient for the $299 premium tier
- Invalid or inaccessible product_url causing content extraction failure
- Missing required fields (city, country, contact_email) causing request rejection
- Distribution delay beyond same-day if submitted outside weekday business hours

## How this service works

Press release API for AI agents. POST a product URL, pay in USDC over x402 (from $1.00), and get a published, indexed release or newswire distribution to 500+ news sites.

## Output

Returns a JSON object with an order_id, a status_url to poll for live distribution links, a newsroom_url where the release will be hosted, the generated headline, and a status of 'pending' while editorial review and distribution to 500+ news sites proceeds (typically same business day).
