## 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 grantpulse-nonprofit-financial-intelligence-c01c485a
```

Example prompt: Pull up the 990-based financial intelligence for the Gates Foundation — I want to see their revenue and expense trends, officer compensation, and any financial red flags before we submit our grant proposal.

## When to prefer this

Choose this endpoint when you need fast, free-tier-equivalent financial intelligence on a specific nonprofit or foundation — particularly for grant due diligence, funder vetting, or officer compensation research — and want to avoid paying for commercial nonprofit databases like Candid/GuideStar. Ideal for grant-writing agents that need to qualify funders before investing proposal effort.

## Known failure modes

- Organization not found in 990 database — returns empty or error if EIN or name doesn't match a known filer
- Stale data — 990 filings are published with a 1-2 year lag, so very recent financials may not be available
- Ambiguous organization name matching multiple nonprofits — may return wrong entity or require disambiguation
- Small or newly formed nonprofits may have limited or no 990 filing history
- Service unavailability due to upstream IRS data source or Vercel hosting issues

## How this service works

Grant discovery and application intelligence API, plus IRS Form 990-based nonprofit/funder financial intelligence. 12 endpoints powered by Grants.gov, USASpending.gov, live IRS public records (EO Business Master File + SOI Form 990/990-PF Annual Extracts), and Claude. All endpoints require x402 payment (USDC on Base mainnet). Flagship match endpoint includes Instrumentl, Grants.gov, and Candid Foundation Directory tool links. Grant writer endpoint includes writing tool links + Amazon grant writing books.

## Output

Returns structured financial intelligence derived from IRS Form 990 filings, including multi-year trends in revenue, expenses, and assets; officer and executive compensation figures; and flagged anomalies or red flags such as declining reserves, high overhead ratios, or compensation outliers.
