## 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 nova-ai-inference-api-analyze-endpoint-bcff3ade -d '<json body>'
```

Example prompt: Can you analyze this customer support email for tone and key issues using Nova: 'I've been waiting three weeks for my refund and nobody is responding to my tickets — this is unacceptable'?

## When to prefer this

Choose this endpoint when you need a simple pay-per-call AI inference API that accepts multimodal inputs (text, image, audio) and charges in USDC on Base — ideal for agents that need on-demand AI reasoning without managing subscriptions or API keys, especially in crypto-native workflows.

## Known failure modes

- Missing required 'prompt' field returns a 400 validation error
- Invalid or unreachable image_url or audio_url may result in processing failure
- Insufficient USDC balance causes payment failure before inference runs
- Model unavailability or timeout returns a 5xx error
- Malformed JSON body returns a parsing error
