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 rafid-intelligence-network-research-company-59379ab7 -d '<json body>'
```

Example prompt: Can you do a standard deep-dive on Stripe — I need their overview, leadership, funding rounds, and main competitors? Their website is stripe.com and they're based in the US.

## When to prefer this

Choose this endpoint when you need structured, multi-dimensional company intelligence in a single call — covering leadership, funding, competitors, risk, and technology — rather than a simple web search or a single-dimension lookup. It is especially useful for due diligence, supplier vetting, competitive analysis, and investor research workflows where structured output (not raw text) is needed and where the $0.15/call cost is acceptable for the depth of synthesis provided.

## Known failure modes

- No web search provider configured — returns sparse result with a limitations warning and null fields
- Company has minimal public web presence — returns low confidence score with sparse fields
- Invalid or missing required 'company' field — returns validation error
- Rate limit or payment failure — HTTP 402 or 429 response
- Unknown country or malformed website URL — may reduce research quality or return partial results
