## 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 intelica-competitive-intelligence-api-cafd8535 -d '<json body>'
```

Example prompt: Can you run a competitive intelligence analysis on https://www.acmecorp.com in competitive mode and give me the results as JSON? I want to understand their positioning and offerings.

## When to prefer this

Use this endpoint when you need automated competitive intelligence extraction from a specific URL or text snippet, particularly for business research workflows where structured JSON output and selectable analysis modes (e.g. competitive) are required. Prefer this over general web scrapers when the goal is actionable competitive insight rather than raw content.

## Known failure modes

- Invalid or unreachable URL returns an error or empty result
- Unsupported mode value may produce unexpected output
- Missing both url and text fields may result in a validation error
- Payment failure (x402) blocks the request before processing
- force_refresh=false may return cached/stale results for recently analyzed URLs

## Output

Returns a structured JSON (or formatted) competitive intelligence report derived from the provided URL or text, including insights relevant to market positioning, competitive signals, and strategic context depending on the selected mode.
