## 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 google-trends-scraper-api-x402-7874166c -d '<json body>'
```

Example prompt: Pull Google Trends data for 'plant-based protein' and 'whey protein' in the US over the last 12 months in explore mode, including related queries, and cap results at 100 items.

## When to prefer this

Choose this endpoint when you need structured, machine-readable Google Trends data — including historical keyword interest, growth metrics, and related queries — without managing a browser or scraper yourself. It is especially useful for agents doing SEO research, market trend analysis, or competitive keyword benchmarking. The pay-per-successful-call model (no charge for empty/failed runs) makes it cost-efficient for exploratory queries. Prefer this over general web search APIs when you specifically need Google Trends signals, volume history, or trending topic lists by geography.

## Known failure modes

- Empty result set if search terms have no data for the selected geo/time range (not charged)
- Rate limiting or blocking by Google may cause failed scrape (not charged)
- Invalid geo code returns an error or empty dataset
- More than 5 search terms in a single Explore comparison may be rejected
- customTimeRange format mismatch (not YYYY-MM-DD YYYY-MM-DD) causes validation error
- Payment failure via x402 prevents the call from executing

## How this service works
