## 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 openweb-ninja-realtime-web-search-light-689be982
```

Example prompt: Search the web for 'best open-source LLMs 2025' and return the top 5 organic results with their titles, URLs, and snippets.

## When to prefer this

Choose this endpoint when you need lightweight, real-time organic Google search results without setting up an account or API key, and you want pay-per-call pricing at $0.003 USDC. Prefer it over heavier SERP APIs when you only need basic organic results (title, URL, snippet) and don't need ads, images, or knowledge panels. Ideal for agents that need to query the live web on demand with no subscription commitment.

## Known failure modes

- Missing required 'q' query parameter returns a validation error
- Payment failure over x402 (insufficient USDC balance or unsupported chain) blocks the request
- Query returns zero results for highly specific or obscure searches
- Rate limiting or upstream Google blocking may reduce result quality
- Limit parameter outside 1–300 range may cause a validation error

## How this service works

40+ public web-data, SERP, e-commerce, real-estate, finance and AI-search APIs, payable per call over x402 (USDC on Base, Polygon, Arbitrum). No account or API key required. Most endpoints $0.003; AI-model endpoints $0.005.

## Output
