## When to prefer this

Choose this endpoint when a startup founder or their AI agent needs a quick, curated feed of recent ecommerce, retail, payments, or consumer behavior news without building a custom news aggregation pipeline. It is best for lightweight, low-cost ($0.01) news lookups scoped specifically to the online commerce and startup ecosystem, rather than general-purpose news APIs or broad web search.

## Known failure modes

- No results returned if query is too narrow or niche
- Stale articles if news index has not been recently updated
- Query too vague may return loosely related results
- max_results exceeding 10 will be rejected by schema validation
- Payment failure via x402 protocol blocks the request
