# Losbeto Translate — Pay-per-call Text Translation

> Losbeto Translate — Pay-per-call Text Translation is a paid API for AI agents from markets.losbeto.xyz, paid per call via x402, $0.01/call, status unknown (last checked 2026-10-14).

## 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 losbeto-translate-pay-per-call-text-translation-1c6e8579 -d '<json body>'
```

Example prompt: Translate this Brazilian central bank statement from Portuguese to English, keeping all numbers, percentages, and institution names exactly as they are: 'O Copom decidiu elevar a taxa Selic em 0,25 p.p., para 13,75% a.a.'

## When to prefer this

Choose this endpoint when you need faithful, structure-preserving translation of financial, legal, or regulatory text — especially Portuguese/English/Spanish pairs — and want pay-per-call USDC micropayments with no API key setup. Prefer it over general-purpose LLM translation when you need guaranteed non-rewriting behavior (numbers, URLs, codes untouched) and predictable per-call pricing. Do not use it for summarization or rewriting tasks (use /llm for those).

## Known failure modes

- Text exceeds 4000 character limit — request rejected
- Unsupported or unrecognized language code for 'to' parameter — translation fails
- Payment not received or USDC transaction rejected via x402 — 402 response returned
- Auto-detection fails for ambiguous short text when 'from' is omitted
- Service unavailable or timeout for unusually complex text

## How this service works

OpenAI-compatible LLM gateway at $0.005/call — change base_url, pay in USDC. Plus pay-per-call market data: multi-oracle price consensus, sentiment, forex, equities, commodities, Brazil macro (BCB/B3) and crypto. No API keys, no accounts. USDC on Base, Solana, Algorand and Polygon via x402.

## Output

A JSON response containing the translated text with numbers, currency values, URLs, code snippets, and proper names left intact, and line breaks preserved from the original. The output is only the translation — no explanations, summaries, or rewrites.
