## 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 lei-lookup-29f952db
```

Example prompt: Can you look up the Legal Entity Identifier for HSBC and tell me its LEI code, current status, and jurisdiction?

## When to prefer this

Use this endpoint when you need to resolve or verify Legal Entity Identifiers (LEIs) for financial compliance, KYC/AML workflows, counterparty onboarding, or regulatory reporting. It is especially useful when you need a pay-per-call solution with no account setup, ideal for sporadic or automated agent-driven lookups. Prefer this over direct GLEIF API calls when you want a simple REST interface with x402 micropayment billing.

## Known failure modes

- No results found for an unknown or misspelled company name
- Ambiguous query returning many unrelated entities requiring further filtering
- Rate limit or payment failure if USDC payment on Base is not properly attached
- Stale data if the LEI registry has not been recently synced
- Invalid query parameter returns 400 or empty response

## How this service works

Public data and utility APIs paid per call in USDC on Base (x402). No accounts, no API keys. 174 routes: crypto/equity data, onchain reads, DNS/email/security intel, geo/weather, x402 payment diagnostics, dev utilities and more.

## Output

Returns a JSON object with a count of matching entities and a results array. Each result includes the LEI code (20-character alphanumeric identifier), current status (e.g. ISSUED), the official legal name of the entity, and the jurisdiction (country code) of registration.
