# Saylor Innovations On-Chain Lookups — Arbitrum eth_call

> Saylor Innovations On-Chain Lookups — Arbitrum eth_call is a paid API for AI agents from saylorinnovations.com, paid per call via x402, $0.003/call, status unknown (last checked 2026-10-03).

Executes a read-only smart contract call (eth_call) on Arbitrum, returning the ABI-encoded result or revert status

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 saylor-innovations-on-chain-lookups-arbitrum-eth-call-98806fd5
```

Example prompt: Call the balanceOf function on the USDC contract at 0xaf88d065e77c8cC2239327C5EDb3A432268e5831 on Arbitrum — encode the calldata for address 0xYourWallet and give me the raw result.

## When to prefer this

Choose this endpoint when you need a lightweight, pay-per-call read-only eth_call on Arbitrum without managing your own RPC node or API keys. Ideal for AI agents that need sporadic on-chain state reads on Arbitrum (balances, allowances, view functions) and want to pay micro-fees via x402 rather than subscribing to a full RPC provider.

## Known failure modes

- Invalid or malformed ABI-encoded calldata returns a revert with error message
- Contract address does not exist on Arbitrum — returns reverted: true
- Network congestion or RPC node unavailability — may return error string
- Incorrect function selector in calldata causes revert
- Missing required 'data' query parameter results in bad request

## How this service works

Read-Only Contract Call (eth_call) (arbitrum). Arbitrum read-only contract call (eth_call) with ?data= calldata, optional ?from= and ?block=; reverts reported cleanly with revert data.

## Output

Returns a JSON object containing the chain name ('arbitrum'), the queried contract address, the raw hex-encoded result string (or null), a boolean indicating whether the call reverted, and an error message string (or null) if the call failed.
