## 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 verifik-ai-argentina-company-lookup-kyb-63c5e877 -d '<json body>'
```

Example prompt: Can you verify the Argentine company with CUIT 30-71234567-9 using Verifik? I need to confirm it's a legitimately registered business in Argentina before we proceed with onboarding.

## When to prefer this

Use this endpoint when you need to verify or look up a company registered in Argentina (e.g. by CUIT) as part of a KYB (Know Your Business) workflow. Prefer this over generic company lookup APIs when LATAM coverage and pay-per-call pricing without subscription lock-in is needed, or when operating in an x402 micropayment context.

## Known failure modes

- Invalid documentType or documentNumber returns an error response
- Company not found in Argentine registry returns empty or error data
- Malformed request (missing required fields) returns 400 or validation error
- Payment failure (insufficient USDC) returns HTTP 402
- Network timeout or upstream registry unavailability returns 5xx error
