# ProspectPulse Jurisdiction Entry-Risk Assessment

> ProspectPulse Jurisdiction Entry-Risk Assessment is a paid API for AI agents from prospectpulse-pi.vercel.app, paid per call via x402, $0.25/call, status unknown (last checked 2026-09-15).

Returns a comprehensive entry-risk profile for a mining jurisdiction in any of 80+ countries, covering mining code, royalties, permitting timelines, political risk, and operational context.

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-jurisdiction-entry-risk-assessment-c3d886ab
```

Example prompt: Can you run a full jurisdiction entry-risk assessment for copper mining in the Democratic Republic of Congo — I need the mining code overview, royalty rates, permitting timeline, and political risk score to decide if it's investable?

## When to prefer this

Use this endpoint when an agent needs a fast, structured go/no-go assessment on entering a mining jurisdiction — particularly for initial due diligence, investment screening, or board-level decision support. Prefer over generic country-risk databases when mining-specific detail (royalties, permitting, mineral codes) is required alongside political risk. Pairs well with the ProspectPulse community-opposition and commodity supply/demand endpoints for fuller investment context.

## Known failure modes

- Jurisdiction not covered (outside the 80+ supported countries) — returns error indicating unsupported region
- Ambiguous or misspelled country/jurisdiction name — may return nearest match or error
- Payment not processed or x402 handshake fails — call not fulfilled
- Rate limiting if too many rapid calls — returns 429 or equivalent
- Outdated political data if recent coup or regulatory change has not been indexed yet

## How this service works

Global mineral and resource exploration intelligence. USGS MRDS deposit inventory, geochemical anomaly analysis, satellite scene availability, jurisdiction entry-risk,…

## Output

A structured risk profile covering: mining code and legal framework summary, royalty and fiscal terms, typical permitting timeline, political stability and sovereign risk score, and an overall investability judgment for the specified jurisdiction.
