## 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 stratalize-m-a-transaction-multiples-benchmark-ecfe2e98
```

Example prompt: Pull the median EV/EBITDA, EV/Revenue, and control premium benchmarks for technology sector M&A deals in the $250M–$1B deal size range so I can sanity-check our acquisition pricing for the board deck.

## When to prefer this

Use this endpoint when you need defensible, benchmarkable M&A transaction multiples broken down by sector and deal size — particularly when preparing board-level M&A materials, valuing an acquisition target, or stress-testing deal pricing against market comps. The cryptographic signing makes it suitable for contexts requiring auditability. Prefer this over general financial data APIs when you specifically need acquisition transaction multiples (EV/EBITDA, EV/Revenue, control premium) rather than public market trading multiples.

## Known failure modes

- Invalid or unsupported industry enum value returns a 400 error
- Invalid deal_size_tier enum value returns a 400 error
- Insufficient USDC balance or x402 payment failure results in a 402 Payment Required response
- No data available for a very sparse sector/size combination may return empty or null multiples
- Network timeout or service unavailability returns a 5xx error
