## 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 spipe-finance-research-api-597418e8 -d '<json body>'
```

Example prompt: Do an exhaustive financial research deep-dive on Tesla's current valuation and whether analysts think the stock is overpriced — I want a thorough, comprehensive report.

## When to prefer this

Use this endpoint when you need synthesized, multi-source financial research rather than a single data point or structured financial database lookup. It is best for open-ended questions about companies, markets, sectors, or economic trends where you want aggregated web intelligence. Prefer this over structured financial APIs when the question is qualitative or requires reasoning across multiple sources.

## Known failure modes

- Vague or ambiguous financial question may return generic or low-quality results
- Exhaustive research effort may time out or return incomplete results for very broad queries
- Rapidly changing financial data may be outdated by the time of synthesis
- Payment failure or insufficient USDC balance will block the request
- Rate limiting or quota issues on the underlying search/extraction providers
