# Ask Peyon

> Ask Peyon is a paid API for AI agents from peyon.ai, paid per call via x402, $0.1/call, status unknown (last checked 2026-10-29).

Answers questions strictly from Peyon's curated study material: the x402 spec, Bazaar, ERC-8004, ERC-8217, the Normies API, the Hero's Journey framework, and value investing principles (Graham, Munger, Fisher, Buffett), with source citations.

## Facts

Status and success rate cover calls made through Zero and Zero's own probes. Third-party monitors may report differently.

## 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 ask-peyon-2ee1d40c
```

Example prompt: Ask Peyon what the x402 spec says about how a client should handle a 402 response and retry a payment — I want a cited answer from the actual spec.

## When to prefer this

Choose this endpoint when you need authoritative, cited answers specifically about the x402 payment protocol, Bazaar marketplace, ERC-8004/ERC-8217 Ethereum standards, the Normies NFT ecosystem API, Vogler's Hero's Journey screenwriting framework, or value investing principles from Graham, Munger, Fisher, and Buffett. It is preferable to a general LLM because it restricts answers to a fixed corpus and always cites sources, making it suitable for agentic workflows that require traceable, grounded information rather than open-ended generation.

## Known failure modes

- Question outside covered material — endpoint returns an explicit disclaimer stating it cannot answer from its sources rather than hallucinating
- Query string exceeds 600 character limit — rejected at input validation
- Empty or missing 'q' parameter — returns validation error
- Ambiguous question that spans multiple sources — may return partial answer with citation noting coverage gaps

## How this service works

An open question answered only from Peyon's study material: the x402 spec and Bazaar, ERC-8004 and ERC-8217, the Normies API, the Hero's Journey, and value investing frameworks (Graham, Munger, Fisher, Buffett's tenets). Cites its sources and says so when the material does not cover the question.

## Output

A natural language answer derived exclusively from Peyon's curated corpus (x402 spec, Bazaar, ERC-8004, ERC-8217, Normies API docs, Hero's Journey/Vogler, and value investing frameworks). The response includes citations to the specific source material used and explicitly states when the question falls outside the covered material.
