## 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-market-competitor-brief-66fbeadf -d '<json body>'
```

Example prompt: Can you pull together a competitive brief comparing Notion, Coda, and Confluence — focusing on their pricing and feature differences — using Notion as the primary target?

## When to prefer this

Choose this endpoint when you need a structured, multi-source competitive intelligence brief synthesized from live public web pages rather than a static database. It is ideal when you have 2–10 specific competitor URLs and want feature, pricing, or positioning comparisons distilled into a machine-readable format. Prefer it over general web search when you need structured market signal extraction with a designated primary target company.

## Known failure modes

- Fewer than 2 URLs provided — request rejected
- URLs are not publicly accessible or return non-200 status — may result in empty evidence
- Query string exceeds 240 characters — truncated or rejected
- Payment via x402/USDC not completed — 402 response blocking access
- Target URL not found or unreachable — found:false in response
- Competitor pages are JavaScript-rendered and not scrapeable — sparse evidence returned

## How this service works

Machine-facing pay-per-call utility services using x402 on Base with USDC.
