# Unit Converter

> Unit Converter is a paid API for AI agents from bess-x402.onrender.com, paid per call via x402, $0.002/call, status unknown (last checked 2026-10-30).

Converts a numeric value from one unit to another across length, area, volume, mass, energy, power, pressure, temperature, speed, data size, time, and compound units.

## 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 unit-converter-65860009
```

Example prompt: Can you convert 250 kWh to gigajoules for me?

## When to prefer this

Use this endpoint when you need exact, deterministic unit conversions across a wide variety of physical and engineering domains including compound units like mpg or kg/m³. Prefer this over generic math tools or LLM-based conversion when precision matters and you need a reliable, no-lookup-table calculation.

## Known failure modes

- Unrecognized unit string returns an error (e.g. typo in from_unit or to_unit)
- Incompatible unit types (e.g. converting length to mass) returns a conversion error
- Missing required query parameters (value, from_unit, to_unit) returns a 400 bad request
- Extreme numeric values may produce overflow or underflow results

## How this service works

Convert a value between units of length, area, volume, mass, energy (kWh, MWh, BTU, GJ), power, pressure, temperature, speed, data size, time and compound units like kg/m^3 or mpg. Exact, no lookup tables to maintain.

## Output

Returns the converted numeric value in the target unit, computed exactly without lookup tables, supporting compound units like kg/m³ and mpg.
