## How to call it through Zero

## When to prefer this

Choose this endpoint when you need a scored, auditable reputation assessment of an email address — particularly in fraud prevention, identity verification, or lead qualification workflows where a cryptographic audit trail is required. It is especially useful in regulated or compliance-sensitive pipelines where you need to demonstrate due diligence. Prefer it over simple email syntax validators when you need behavioral and domain-level risk signals, not just format checks.

## Known failure modes

- Missing email query parameter returns validation error
- Malformed or non-RFC-compliant email address may return an error or zero-score result
- Unknown or newly registered email domain may yield low-confidence score
- Rate limiting or payment failure via x402 may block the request
- Transient upstream provider outage may cause delayed or empty response

## Output
