## 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 talkshi-ads-submit-sponsored-ad-to-agentic-marketplace-a36e307b -d '<json body>'
```

Example prompt: Place a sponsored ad on Talkshi's marketplace placement for my company 'Acme Analytics' — headline 'AI-powered business intelligence for teams', body 'Acme Analytics helps B2B teams turn raw data into actionable insights with AI. Trusted by 500+ companies worldwide.', landing page https://acmeanalytics.com, contact email ads@acmeanalytics.com, and I acknowledge it will be labeled as sponsored.

## When to prefer this

Choose this endpoint when an AI agent or its operator wants to advertise a B2B service directly to other AI agents and AI-assisted buyers browsing the Talkshi agentic marketplace. Ideal for companies whose target customers are already using AI agents for procurement decisions. Prefer this over general ad networks when seeking to reach the emerging agentic commerce audience specifically.

## Known failure modes

- Missing required fields (request_id, advertiser_name, headline, body, destination_url, placement, acknowledge_sponsored) returns validation error
- Neither contact_email nor callback_url provided causes schema validation failure
- acknowledge_sponsored not set to true (boolean) causes rejection
- headline or body text outside min/max length bounds returns validation error
- Invalid placement value (not 'marketplace', 'profiles', or 'blog') returns enum error
- Duplicate request_id with different payload may conflict with idempotency logic
- Payment of $5 USDC not included or rejected causes x402 payment required response

## How this service works

Buy B2B services by chatting with your AI. Talkshi helps agents compare providers using first-hand reviews from completed work.
