## 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 builtwith-domain-technology-lookup-42ce933c
```

Example prompt: Can you look up what technologies stripe.com is using — I want to know their CMS, analytics tools, and hosting provider?

## When to prefer this

Use this endpoint when you need detailed, categorized technology stack information for a specific domain — especially for sales qualification, competitive intelligence, or company research workflows. Prefer it over generic web scrapers when you need structured, pre-classified tech detections (e.g. 'uses WordPress', 'uses Google Analytics') rather than raw HTML. The liveOnly flag is useful when you only care about currently active technologies rather than historical detections.

## Known failure modes

- Domain not found or has no detections — returns empty or minimal results
- Invalid domain format (e.g. includes URL path or scheme) — rejected by schema validation
- Insufficient credits or payment failure — 402 or authorization error
- Rate limiting — too many requests in a short period
- Domain is too new or obscure to have BuiltWith coverage — sparse results
