# Tanship PayAI Console — AI Describe Endpoint

> Tanship PayAI Console — AI Describe Endpoint is a paid API for AI agents from x402.tanship.dev, paid per call via x402, $0.015/call, status unknown (last checked 2026-09-14).

## 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 tanship-payai-console-ai-describe-endpoint-6b8df2c9 -d '<json body>'
```

Example prompt: Can you describe what this HTTP POST request does — it sends JSON to a login endpoint with a username and password field in the body?

## When to prefer this

Choose this endpoint when you need AI-powered natural language interpretation of raw HTTP requests, especially in agentic pipelines that need to audit, document, or explain API calls programmatically. Prefer it over general LLMs when you want a metered, pay-per-call model with crypto micropayments via x402 on Base.

## Known failure modes

- Missing required 'input' field returns a validation error
- Invalid or unsupported method enum value causes rejection
- Malformed JSON body results in parse error
- Payment not included or insufficient USDC causes 402 Payment Required response
- Empty body object may produce a vague or low-quality description

## How this service works

Payment-gated AI and browser automation API using the x402 protocol. All /v1/* endpoints require USDC payment on Base (eip155:8453) via x402 v2 exact scheme.

## Output

An AI-generated natural language description explaining what the provided HTTP request does, including its method, body type, and the inferred purpose or action of the request content.
