## 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 answerpool-new-fund-formations-form-d-fd37dd78 -d '<json body>'
```

Example prompt: Pull the latest batch of newly formed VC, PE, and hedge fund Form D filings from AnswerPool — show me the ones filed since last Monday, with their target fund sizes, amounts already sold, state of formation, and number of investors.

## When to prefer this

Choose this endpoint when you need a clean, pre-filtered feed of new pooled investment fund Form D filings without having to parse and filter the raw SEC EDGAR Reg D tape yourself. It is ideal for fund formation monitoring, LP sourcing pipelines, competitive intelligence on new fund managers, and regulatory research workflows. Prefer it over raw EDGAR EDGAR full-text search when you specifically want pooled investment vehicles with structured financial fields (target size, sold amount, investors) already extracted.

## Known failure modes

- Invalid or future 'since' date returns empty results or a 400 error
- Rate limiting or payment failure returns a 402 response requiring USDC payment
- If EDGAR index is delayed, the index_started_at field may lag behind real-time filings
- No results returned for periods with no new pooled investment fund Form D filings
- Malformed query parameters may return a 422 validation error

## How this service works

AnswerPool turns SEC EDGAR, the Federal Register, USAspending, NIH, BLS and OpenAlex into structured JSON answers that AI agents and developers fetch in one call. 69 endpoints free, no account; derived analyses $0.02–$0.05 per call by card credits or USDC (x402). MCP server, full provenance.

## Output

A JSON object with a timestamp, count of matching offerings, and an array of fund filings each containing the fund's CIK, company name, state, entity type, filing date, accession number, amount sold, remaining amount, total offering size, investor count, applicable exemptions, first sale date, minimum investment, and a direct URL to the SEC filing.
