Example prompt: Can you pull the latest foresight signals from Creative Foresight right now — I need emerging trend intelligence to inform a creative strategy brief I'm putting together?

## When to prefer this

Choose this endpoint when you need trend intelligence, foresight signals, or emerging pattern data for creative strategy, innovation planning, or cultural analysis. It is particularly suited for agents helping with creative briefs, strategic planning, or innovation scouting where early signal detection is valuable. Prefer this over general web search when you need structured, curated trend intelligence rather than raw search results.

## Known failure modes

- Payment not processed — 402 response if USDC payment fails or is missing
- Rate limiting if too many calls are made in quick succession
- Empty or sparse signal set if no new signals have been indexed recently
- Authentication or authorization errors if API key is invalid or missing
- Timeout if the signal aggregation pipeline is slow
