Example prompt: What are the Piotroski F-Score, Altman Z-Score zone, and Beneish manipulation flag for Microsoft (MSFT) based on its latest 10-K filing?

## When to prefer this

Choose this endpoint when you need a fast, cheap ($0.005 USDC) snapshot of all three canonical accounting-quality scores (Piotroski, Altman, Beneish) for a single US public company from its most recent 10-K. Prefer this over the full detailed report endpoint when you only need the headline numbers and zone flags, not the full breakdown of individual sub-components. Use when screening a single ticker rather than a portfolio batch.

## Known failure modes

- Invalid or unrecognized ticker symbol returns an error without charging the user
- Company not found in SEC EDGAR XBRL 10-K data (e.g. foreign-listed, OTC pink sheet, or no XBRL filing) returns an error
- API service timeout or unavailability on Render.com cold start may cause slow or failed response
- Non-US companies or ETFs/funds that do not file 10-K reports will be rejected
- Stale data if EDGAR has not yet processed the company's latest 10-K filing

## How this service works

Headline accounting-quality numbers for a US public company from its latest 10-K XBRL data at SEC EDGAR: Piotroski F-Score (0-9), Altman Z (Z' or Z'' by industry) with safe/grey/distress zone, Beneish M-Score with low/elevated flag, one-line summary. Compact JSON. Errors are never charged (bad tickers rejected before payment; failed calls not settled).

## Output

Compact JSON object containing: Piotroski F-Score (integer 0–9), Altman Z-Score (numeric, with variant Z/Z'/Z'' by industry and safe/grey/distress zone label), Beneish M-Score (numeric with low/elevated manipulation flag), and a one-line plain-English summary of the company's accounting health.
