## 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`):

Example prompt: Can you compare the macroeconomic profiles of the United States, Germany, and Japan — I want to see how their key economic indicators stack up against each other?

## When to prefer this

Choose this endpoint when you need a side-by-side AI-synthesized macroeconomic comparison of two or more countries, combining raw economic data from FRED and World Bank with LLM-generated narrative analysis. Prefer this over raw data APIs when you want both structured indicators and interpretive intelligence in a single call, and when you are comfortable paying per-call via x402 on Base blockchain.

## Known failure modes

- Unrecognized country names may cause lookup failures or missing data
- Too many countries in one request may time out or return partial data
- FRED or World Bank data may be unavailable or stale for certain countries
- LLM synthesis may produce generic comparisons if underlying data is sparse
- Payment failure via x402 on Base will block the request
- Missing required 'countries' array returns validation error
