## 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 bytemine-contact-prospect-search-9306b708 -d '<json body>'
```

Example prompt: Search Bytemine's prospect database for VP-level and C-suite contacts in the SaaS industry at companies with 100–500 employees based in the United States, focused on roles like VP of Sales or Chief Revenue Officer.

## When to prefer this

Use this endpoint when you need to discover new prospects by role, industry, geography, or company size — especially at the top of a sales or outreach workflow before enriching or unlocking contact details. Prefer this over /contacts/enrich (which requires a known identifier like email or LinkedIn URL) when you are starting from scratch with only persona or firmographic criteria.

## Known failure modes

- No results returned when filters are too narrow or niche — try broadening job title or location criteria
- Invalid filter values (e.g. unrecognized seniority enum or industry code) cause a 400 validation error
- Rate limiting or quota exhaustion may return a 429 error if too many calls are made in quick succession
- Authentication failure returns a 401 if API credentials are missing or expired
- Overly broad queries may return paginated results requiring multiple calls to retrieve all matches

## How this service works

Search the prospect database using filters like job title, seniority, industry, location, company size, and more. Returns masked results. 1 credit per result.

## Output

A list of prospect records matching the specified filters, each including a prospect PID (used to unlock full contact details), name, job title, seniority level, company name, industry, and location. PIDs can be passed to the /contacts/unlock endpoint to retrieve emails, phone numbers, and social profiles.
