# Edge Agents AI – Canada Macro Pulse

> Edge Agents AI – Canada Macro Pulse is a paid API for AI agents from pay.edge-agents.ai, paid per call via x402, $0.1/call, status unknown (last checked 2026-10-03).

Returns evidence-backed macroeconomic intelligence for Canada, covering inflation, labour, cycle, and policy signals with provenance and confidence scoring.

## Facts

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 edge-agents-ai-canada-macro-pulse-23c3eaeb
```

Example prompt: Give me the latest evidence-backed Canada macro pulse — I need the current economic cycle status, inflation and labour signals, and the Bank of Canada's policy stance with confidence scoring.

## When to prefer this

Choose this endpoint when you need a structured, evidence-cited macroeconomic intelligence report specifically for Canada — including economic cycle phase, inflation, labour, and policy signals — with explicit confidence scoring and provenance. Prefer it over generic LLM-generated macro summaries when auditability, source attribution, and signed provenance matter. Best suited for AI agents, investment analysts, and government teams making decisions that require defensible, evidence-backed intelligence rather than inferred or cached generalizations.

## Known failure modes

- Payment not received or x402 authorization rejected — no report returned
- Data sources temporarily unavailable — report may note reduced evidence coverage
- Stale or incomplete upstream data — limitations field will explicitly state coverage gaps
- Network or provider timeout — retry with same request
- Invalid payment rail or insufficient USDC balance — payment failure before data delivery

## How this service works

Premium synthesis combining direct Statistics Canada CPI and unemployment-rate evidence into a bounded Canada macro-regime read. Purpose: Give an autonomous buyer one compact Canada macro-regime read combining inflation and labour evidence without requiring it to compose two individual sensors. 1-hour freshness target; missing evidence is reported explicitly rather than invented.

## Output

Returns a JSON object containing: a quality assessment with status (e.g. 'strong') and confidence level; a macro analysis object with family classification (e.g. 'macro'), key intents (inflation, labour, cycle, evidence), and a narrative summary; evidence metadata including relevant assets (e.g. 'CAN'), policy stance, and source attribution; service and data status fields; a disclaimer; signed provenance from the issuer; a generation timestamp; and stated limitations on coverage and source freshness.
