## Known failure modes

- Field not available for the requested country returns null or an error
- Stale data if the underlying verified source has not been recently refreshed
- Service unavailability on Render.com free tier (cold starts, downtime)
- Payment failure via x402 protocol resulting in 402 response before data is returned
