## When to prefer this

Choose this endpoint when you need to search Apollo's 275M+ person database with structured filters (title, seniority, location, company domain) and can pay per-call in USDC via the x402 micropayment protocol. Ideal for AI agents building targeted lead lists, enriching CRM pipelines, or doing programmatic sales prospecting without managing an Apollo API key or subscription.

## Known failure modes

- Invalid or missing filter parameters return empty result sets
- Exceeding max page (500) or per_page (100) limits causes a validation error
- Invalid organization IDs produce no matches without explicit error
- Rate limits or payment failures return non-2xx status with error detail
- Overly broad queries may return low-quality or irrelevant contacts
