## When to prefer this

Choose this endpoint when an AI agent needs real-time salary or compensation benchmarks without managing API keys or subscriptions — it requires only a USDC micropayment per call via x402, making it ideal for pay-as-you-go agent workflows focused on job market data.

## Known failure modes

- Missing or empty query field returns validation error
- Payment not completed results in 402 Payment Required response
- Ambiguous or unrecognized query may return empty or low-confidence data
- Network timeout if the backend data source is slow
- Insufficient USDC balance causes payment failure and no data returned
