## When to prefer this

Choose this endpoint when you need machine-readable, structured Argentine CPI/inflation data with per-query micropayment pricing (no subscription required), especially in agentic workflows that also need complementary LatAm data (FX, central bank rates, holidays, fiscal ID validation) from the same provider. Prefer alternatives if you need real-time intraday price data, raw INDEC microdata, or coverage of countries outside Latin America.

## Known failure modes

- Payment not processed — HTTP 402 returned if USDC payment via x402 is missing or insufficient
- Data unavailable — source statistics not yet published for requested period
- Rate limiting — too many requests in a short window
- Service downtime — hosted on Render free tier, may have cold-start latency or availability gaps
- Stale data — official INDEC releases may lag real-world conditions
