## 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 interzoid-get-name-origin-f11768da
```

Example prompt: What is the ethnic or cultural origin of the name 'Nakamura'? Use Interzoid to classify it.

## When to prefer this

Use this endpoint when you need to classify the ethnic or cultural origin of an individual's name, such as for demographic analysis, data enrichment of CRM/ERP records, targeted marketing segmentation, or MDM data quality projects. Prefer this over general NLP APIs when you specifically need name-origin classification rather than sentiment or entity extraction.

## Known failure modes

- Missing 'name' query parameter returns an error response
- Invalid or unrecognized name may return a generic or empty origin
- Insufficient credits returns a payment or quota error
- Network timeout for very long name strings

## How this service works

## Output
