## 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 venturepulse-comparable-deal-analysis-630d9eba
```

Example prompt: Pull comparable funding deals for a B2B SaaS startup raising a Series A in the US — I want to see what similar companies raised, the pre-money valuations, dilution percentages, and which VCs led those rounds.

## When to prefer this

Use this endpoint when a founder or VC agent needs to benchmark a fundraising round against real comparable deals — specifically to understand market-rate valuations, typical dilution, and which investors are active in similar deals. Prefer this over generic VC news endpoints when structured deal-term benchmarking is the goal, and over the investor-matching endpoint when the focus is on deal economics rather than finding specific investors to approach.

## Known failure modes

- No comparable deals found for a highly niche or novel sector — returns empty result set
- Insufficient parameters provided (e.g. missing stage or sector) — returns 400 bad request
- Comparable data unavailable for very early pre-seed or pre-revenue companies with no analogues
- Rate limit or payment failure via x402 protocol — returns 402 Payment Required
- Outdated comps if deal database hasn't been refreshed for a recent market segment

## How this service works

## Output

A list of comparable fundraising deals including company names, round types, amounts raised, pre-money and post-money valuations, dilution percentages, lead investors, and deal dates for startups matching the query profile.
