## 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 ggwp-api-hub-background-removal-a9bdbb03 -d '<json body>'
```

Example prompt: Can you remove the background from this product photo so I'm left with just the item on a transparent background?

## When to prefer this

Choose this endpoint when you need a pay-per-call background removal service without a subscription, billed via USDC on Base chain using the x402 protocol. It is part of an all-in-one API hub, making it convenient if you are already using GGWP for other services like social media, finance, or crypto APIs.

## Known failure modes

- Image URL inaccessible or malformed — returns an error or empty result
- Image format not supported — may fail silently or return an error
- Poor subject-background contrast — subject may be partially removed or artifacts introduced
- Network timeout for large images — may return a timeout error
- Payment not processed correctly via x402 — returns 402 Payment Required

## How this service works

All-in-one API hub: Social Media, Jobs, Finance, Crypto, and Tools. Pay-per-call with x402 protocol on Base chain.

## Output

Returns a processed image with the background removed, typically as a transparent PNG or a base64-encoded image with the subject isolated from its original background.
