# Apex Edge Live Lanes Inference

> Apex Edge Live Lanes Inference is a paid API for AI agents from apex-edge.pearceshrader.workers.dev, paid per call via x402, $0.002/call, status unknown (last checked 2026-10-10).

Executes a paid AI inference request over the x402 micropayment protocol on the /lanes/live endpoint, returning a JSON result with an associated audit trail

## 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 apex-edge-live-lanes-inference-44b5c6eb -d '<json body>'
```

Example prompt: Run an inference request on the Apex Edge live lane — charge my x402 wallet the $0.002 USDC per-call fee — and give me back the JSON result along with the audit record.

## When to prefer this

Choose this endpoint when you need a pay-per-use AI inference call billed automatically via x402 USDC micropayments with an associated audit log, and you want the simplicity of a Cloudflare Workers-hosted endpoint without managing a subscription or API key billing relationship. It is particularly suited to agentic pipelines where per-call cost accountability and auditability matter.

## Known failure modes

- 402 Payment Required if x402 payment header is missing or payment fails
- 400 Bad Request if the request body is malformed or missing required fields
- 401/403 if the payment credential or facilitator authorization is invalid
- 500 Internal Server Error if the Cloudflare Worker or upstream inference service is unavailable
- Timeout if the inference task exceeds the Worker execution limit
