# ProspectPulse Commodity Supply-Demand Intelligence

> ProspectPulse Commodity Supply-Demand Intelligence is a paid API for AI agents from prospectpulse.theaslangroupllc.com, paid per call via x402, $0.2/call, status unknown (last checked 2026-09-14).

Returns global supply and demand analysis for a specified mining commodity, including structural deficit forecasts and energy-transition context.

## Facts

- Endpoint: GET https://prospectpulse.theaslangroupllc.com/api/prospect/commodity-supply-intel
- Price: $0.2/call
- Payment: x402
- Status: unknown

Status and success rate cover calls made through Zero and Zero's own probes. Third-party monitors may report differently.

## 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 prospectpulse-commodity-supply-demand-intelligence-ddbf27bf
```

Example prompt: Give me a full global supply and demand analysis for lithium, including where structural deficits are forming and how the energy transition is driving demand — I need it for a mining investment thesis.

## When to prefer this

Use this endpoint when an agent needs structured, investment-grade global supply-demand analysis for a specific mining or critical mineral commodity, particularly when energy-transition context and deficit identification are required. Prefer this over generic financial data APIs when the user's intent is mining-sector investment research or commodity market intelligence specific to the metals covered.

## Known failure modes

- Unsupported or unrecognized commodity name returns an error or empty result
- Commodity specified outside the supported list (Li, Co, Ni, Cu, REE, Au, Ag, Pt, U, graphite) may return an error
- Data freshness lag if underlying market data sources have not been recently updated
- Payment failure or insufficient USDC balance blocks the call with a 402 response
- Ambiguous commodity abbreviation (e.g. 'REE' vs specific rare earth) may return generalized results

## How this service works

Global supply and demand analysis for any mining commodity (Li, Co, Ni, Cu, REE, Au, Ag, Pt, U, graphite) for commodity and mining-investment agents, with energy-transition context on where structural deficits are forming.

## Output

A structured report covering global supply and demand dynamics for the requested mining commodity, identification of structural deficit regions or time horizons, energy-transition demand drivers (e.g. EV, battery storage, grid infrastructure), current market balance, and investment-relevant insights on where supply shortfalls are emerging.
