```

Example prompt: Can you pull the latest IPCA consumer inflation data for Brazil — I need the last 12 monthly readings and the 12-month accumulated rate from the Central Bank of Brazil?

## When to prefer this

Choose this endpoint when you need official Brazilian IPCA consumer inflation data from the Central Bank of Brazil, specifically the last 12 monthly readings and the accumulated 12-month figure. Prefer this over scraped or third-party aggregated sources when official provenance matters. Particularly useful for Brazil-focused financial analysis, FX modeling, economic reporting, or compliance contexts where BRL inflation figures are needed quickly without building a Central Bank integration yourself.

## Known failure modes

- Service unavailable if Render.com hosting is down (cold start latency possible on free tier)
- Stale data if upstream Central Bank feed is delayed
- Empty or partial response if fewer than 12 months of data are available from the source
- HTTP 402 if payment via x402 protocol is not properly handled
- Rate limiting or timeout if the hosted service is under load

## Output
