Example prompt: Can you pull a MacroLens macro economic outlook for Germany — I want an AI-powered analysis based on FRED and World Bank data covering the current economic conditions?

## When to prefer this

Choose this endpoint when you need a comprehensive, AI-synthesized macroeconomic narrative for a specific country rather than raw data series. It is ideal when you want FRED and World Bank indicators interpreted and contextualized by an LLM in a single call, rather than querying individual data sources separately and writing your own analysis. Best suited for investment screening, risk assessment, or economic briefing use cases where a readable, structured outlook is more valuable than raw numbers.

## Known failure modes

- Invalid or unrecognized country name returns an error or empty data
- Network or LLM inference timeout causes failed response
- Payment failure via x402/Base blockchain results in 402 response before analysis is returned
- Sparse data availability for smaller or sanctioned countries may yield incomplete analysis
- success: false returned with no data object if the backend pipeline fails
