## 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 clado-contact-enrichment-via-locus-x402-d3c9b31b -d '<json body>'
```

Example prompt: Can you look up the LinkedIn profile and enrich the email for the contact john.smith@acme.com using Clado?

## When to prefer this

Choose this endpoint when you need to enrich B2B contact profiles using email, phone, or LinkedIn URL as an identifier, especially when you need LinkedIn profile data alongside contact details. It is well-suited for sales automation pipelines, CRM enrichment workflows, and lead generation use cases where per-contact pay-as-you-go pricing ($0.04 USDC) is preferable to a bulk subscription. Prefer this over generic people-search APIs if LinkedIn enrichment is a priority.

## Known failure modes

- Contact not found in Clado database — empty data object returned
- Invalid or malformed email/phone/LinkedIn URL input — validation error
- Insufficient credits or payment failure — request rejected
- Rate limiting if too many requests sent in rapid succession
- LinkedIn URL format not recognized — lookup fails silently

## How this service works
