## 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 crustdata-company-database-search-f3880aaa -d '<json body>'
```

Example prompt: Search Crustdata's company database for US-based SaaS companies with 50 to 500 employees that have been growing headcount by more than 20% year-over-year, are headquartered in New York or San Francisco, and raised a Series B or later.

## When to prefer this

Use this endpoint when you need to discover or screen companies from a large database using complex multi-criteria filters with nested AND/OR logic. Prefer this over the Company Enrich endpoint when you do not already have specific company identifiers and need to prospect or build a target list. Choose this over the Identify endpoint when the goal is broad discovery rather than resolving a known company.

## Known failure modes

- Invalid filter logic structure returns a 400 error
- Unsupported filter field names cause rejection
- Overly broad queries may return truncated results or require pagination
- Authentication failure returns 401 if API key is missing or invalid
- Empty result set when no companies match the specified filters
- Nested AND/OR logic depth limits exceeded returns a schema validation error
