## 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 saylor-innovations-fundraising-dilution-calculator-cc613fd2
```

Example prompt: We have a $8M pre-money valuation and are raising $2M — what will investors own and how much will existing holders be diluted? Also carve out a 10% option pool post-raise.

## When to prefer this

Choose this endpoint when you need a fast, lightweight computation of post-round ownership percentages and dilution figures given a pre-money valuation and raise amount, especially when you also need to model option pool dilution. It is ideal for quick scenario modeling in early-stage fundraising contexts where a full cap table tool is not needed.

## Known failure modes

- Missing required parameters pre_money or raise_amount returns an error
- Negative or zero values for pre_money or raise_amount may result in invalid or error responses
- Non-numeric string values for numeric parameters may cause parsing errors
- option_pool_percent values outside 0-100 range may produce nonsensical results
- Service unavailable or payment failure (402) if USDC payment is not processed correctly
