## When to prefer this

Use this endpoint when you need official BLS-sourced PPI data for a specific industry with cryptographic verifiability. Prefer this over general economic data APIs when you require signed, independently auditable responses or need to benchmark input costs and PPI pass-through for one of the seven supported industries (software, healthcare_services, banking, construction, retail, hospital, consulting).

## Known failure modes

- Invalid or unsupported industry value returns a validation error
- BLS data source temporarily unavailable may result in a 503 or stale data response
- Missing required 'industry' parameter returns a 400 bad request
- Payment not processed correctly may result in a 402 Payment Required response
