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 crustdata-withzero-xyz-crustdata-role-cluster-decision-maker-search-9fbf08ef -d '<json body>'
```

Example prompt: Find the top decision makers at browserbase.com using the decision_makers role cluster and return up to 10 profiles with their current job titles and experience history.

## When to prefer this

Use this endpoint when you need to quickly find role-typed contacts (executives, founders, GTM, product, technical, or partnerships) at a specific known company rather than running a broad person search with manual title filters. Prefer it over the generic PersonDB search route when you want pre-built role cluster logic and don't want to construct complex nested title filters yourself. Best for ABM workflows targeting specific accounts.

## Known failure modes

- Upstream Crustdata API error — settles $0 USDC, returns error details in data field
- No profiles found matching role cluster and company filters — empty data array returned
- Invalid role_cluster enum value — request rejected with validation error
- Neither company_domain, company_name, nor company_professional_network_profile_url provided — missing required company identifier
- limit exceeds 25 — request rejected by schema validation
- Company domain does not match any known Crustdata company — empty result set

## How this service works

Decision-maker helper route: find founders, executives, GTM, product, technical, partnerships, or other role-cluster candidates at one current employer using Crustdata person/search nested filters. Returns raw Crustdata people profiles with basic_profile, social_handles, and experience rows by default so callers can inspect profile URLs and matching current employment. Default pricing is $0.10 per Crustdata credit with a $0.01 minimum successful-call settlement. Upstream Crustdata errors settle $0. Priced like PersonDB search at 0.03 Crustdata credits per returned profile.

## Output

Returns raw Crustdata people profiles including experience rows showing current employment, plus billing metadata showing credits used, USDC settled, and per-credit pricing. Up to 25 profiles per call depending on the limit parameter.
