## 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 geo402-ip-geolocation-ca05ab78
```

Example prompt: What city and country is the IP address 203.0.113.42 located in, and what timezone is it in?

## When to prefer this

Use this endpoint when you need fast, pay-per-call IP geolocation without a subscription or API key — ideal for AI agents that need occasional lookups and want to pay micro-amounts per request via USDC on Base. Good for enriching user/visitor data with geographic context, timezone detection, or fraud checks.

## Known failure modes

- Invalid IP format returns 400 error
- Private/reserved IP ranges may return no location data
- Payment failure via x402 returns 402 Payment Required
- IPv6 addresses may have lower geolocation precision
- Rate limiting or server error returns 5xx

## How this service works

Pay-per-call geolocation utility for AI agents: geocoding, reverse geocoding, timezone lookup, and great-circle distance. No API key, no subscription — agents pay per request via x402 (Base/USDC) or MPP (Tempo/pathUSD).

## Output

Returns geolocation metadata for the queried IP address including city, country, region, latitude/longitude coordinates, timezone, and ISP information. If no IP is provided, defaults to the caller's own IP.
