## 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

## When to prefer this

Use this endpoint when you need structured, machine-readable business-for-sale data from BizBuySell without building your own scraper. It is ideal for M&A deal sourcing, franchise research, competitive analysis, or any workflow that requires bulk extraction of listings by location, category, or keyword. Prefer this over general web scrapers when you specifically need BizBuySell data with clean field extraction including revenue, inventory, and category.

## Known failure modes

- BizBuySell blocks or rate-limits the scraper, returning empty results
- Invalid or malformed startUrls cause no pages to be processed
- Location slug not recognized, returning zero results
- keyword filter too restrictive, matching nothing after pages are collected
- results_wanted set too low, truncating useful listings early

## How this service works

Pay-per-call structured web data. Failed or empty runs are not charged.

## Output

Returns a JSON object with a count of matched listings and an array of items, each containing the listing URL, title, source, summary, listing ID, full description, site-specific ID, and listing category. Franchise cards may have fewer fields sourced only from search pages.
