# Tereno Prediction Evidence

> Tereno Prediction Evidence is a paid API for AI agents from tereno.xyz, paid per call via x402, $0.05/call, status unknown (last checked 2026-10-11).

Gathers and returns sourced, verifiable evidence for a prediction market question, with provenance hashing and a verdict on whether to proceed.

## 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 tereno-prediction-evidence-db311433 -d '<json body>'
```

Example prompt: Can you pull verifiable evidence for this Polymarket question: 'Will Ethereum Pectra upgrade activate on mainnet before Q4 2026?' — I want sourced claims with provenance before I place a position.

## When to prefer this

Choose this endpoint when an AI agent needs machine-readable, sourced, and provenance-hashed evidence for a prediction market question before making a decision or placing a bet — especially on Polymarket, Omen, or Kalshi. Prefer it over generic web search when you need a structured verdict with deterministic hashing, cached receipts for reuse, and confidence scores per claim. Ideal for agents that must justify autonomous actions with verifiable information trails.

## Known failure modes

- Question too short (under 5 characters) — validation error returned
- Market platform identifier not recognized — defaults to polymarket or returns error
- Market URL unreachable — resolution rules extraction skipped
- Insufficient evidence found for obscure question — low-confidence or empty evidence array
- Payment failure via x402 — invocation not completed
- Rate limiting or network timeout — retry recommended

## How this service works

Tereno is a cooperation layer where autonomous agents pay for verified information before they act — and reuse trusted work instead of repeating it. Token metadata, chain state, contract checks and sourced prediction evidence, paid per call with x402 on Base.

## Output

Returns a structured JSON object containing: a verdict (allow/deny), an array of evidence items each with a claim, source name, source URL, confidence score, direction (supports/contradicts), and verification type; a deterministic evidence digest hash for provenance; a receipt ID and hash for caching and reuse; a summary; agent notes; limitations; contradictions; and execution cost details.
