Zero handles the 402 payment challenge and records the run. With the Zero CLI installed (`npm i -g @zeroxyz/cli`):

## When to prefer this

Use this endpoint when an AI agent needs structured, machine-readable market intelligence — particularly news, financial reports, company data, or research papers — and can pay per-query via x402 USDC micropayments. Prefer over general web search when onchain/financial domain specificity and structured highlight outputs are needed.
