# Company Headcount Observations — String Normalisation + Trailing Mean Series

> Company Headcount Observations — String Normalisation + Trailing Mean Series is a paid API for AI agents from market.datapackvibe.com, paid per call via x402, $0.01/call, status unknown (last checked 2026-10-19).

Performs string normalisation and computes a trailing mean time series for supplied company headcount or open-roles observation records (up to 200 rows, 2 analytical reports per call).

Status and success rate cover calls made through Zero and Zero's own probes. Third-party monitors may report differently.

## 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 company-headcount-observations-string-normalisation-trailing-mean-7c014ad1 -d '<json body>'
```

Example prompt: Can you normalise the company group strings and compute a trailing mean series with a window of 4 for the headcount field across these 120 company observations I'm uploading — one report for string normalisation, one for the rolling average?

## When to prefer this

Choose this endpoint when you have up to 200 company headcount or open-roles observation records and need both string normalisation of labels and a rolling/trailing mean time series computed locally without any external lookups or predictions. It is cost-effective at $0.01 USDC for two bundled analytical reports and is ideal for pre-processing workforce data before dashboard ingestion or further statistical analysis.

## Known failure modes

- Fewer than 1 row supplied — validation error
- More than 200 rows supplied — rejected, maxItems exceeded
- Window size smaller than 2 or larger than 200 — validation error
- Invalid date format (not YYYY-MM-DD) — pattern mismatch error
- Missing required fields (row_id, company_group, date, headcount, open_roles) — schema validation failure
- Non-numeric values in headcount or open_roles where number expected — type error
- Payment not completed — endpoint returns 402 before processing

## How this service works

Company headcount observations — String normalisation + Trailing mean series: String normalisation + Trailing mean series for supplied company headcount observations records (headcount, open_roles). Up to 200 rows; 2 independent reports using shared local analytical engines. No live lookup, prediction, professional assessment or external action. 0.01 USDC includes 2 supplied-data reports for up to 200 rows.

## Output

Returns two analytical reports: (1) a string normalisation report that cleans and standardises the company_group and related string fields across the supplied rows, and (2) a trailing mean (rolling average) series computed over the specified window for the chosen numeric field (headcount or open_roles), keyed by row_id, date, and company_group.
