# Edge Agents Brazil Unemployment Intelligence

> Edge Agents Brazil Unemployment Intelligence is a paid API for AI agents from pay.edge-agents.ai, paid per call via x402, $0.01/call, status unknown (last checked 2026-09-14).

Delivers evidence-backed macro intelligence on Brazil's unemployment conditions with provenance, confidence scoring, and contradiction flagging

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-brazil-unemployment-intelligence-9ee3e98e
```

Example prompt: Pull me a verified macro intelligence report on Brazil's unemployment situation — I need evidence quality, confidence level, and source provenance so I can brief our strategy team on current labor market conditions.

## When to prefer this

Choose this endpoint when you need verifiable, provenance-signed macro intelligence on Brazil's unemployment and labour market, especially when the downstream use case requires traceable evidence (board reporting, investment committees, autonomous decision pipelines). Prefer it over generic data APIs when confidence scoring, contradiction flagging, and signed provenance are required. At $0.01 USDC per call it is cost-effective for point-in-time lookups within automated agent workflows.

## Known failure modes

- Payment not received — endpoint requires $0.01 USDC via x402 protocol before data is served
- Stale or unavailable source data — report will state coverage and freshness limitations explicitly rather than silently omit
- Empty evidence assets array — may occur if live source reports are temporarily inaccessible
- Schema mismatch — callers expecting schema versions prior to 2.0 may need to update parsing logic
- Network timeout — service may be temporarily unavailable; retry with backoff

## How this service works

Latest available Brazil unemployment plus a comparable annual history from the World Bank World Development Indicators API, with source, lag and revision caveats. Purpose: Give an autonomous agent a normalized, directly sourced Brazil unemployment series without forcing it to understand World Bank indicator codes or response shapes. 24-hour freshness target; missing evidence is reported explicitly rather than invented.

## Output

Returns a structured JSON report containing: a quality status (e.g. 'strong') and confidence level (e.g. 'high'), an analysis summary with macro family classification and labour intents, an evidence block with sourced assets and point-in-time policy, a unique serviceId, data status, schema version, generation timestamp, signed provenance from edge-agents.ai, and stated limitations on coverage and source freshness. The report explicitly disclaims investment advice.
