## 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-canadian-company-lookup-ddce55c6 -d '<json body>'
```

Example prompt: Can you verify whether 'Maple Tech Solutions' is a registered company in Ontario, Canada — I need a KYB check before we onboard them as a vendor.

## When to prefer this

Use this endpoint when you need to perform KYB (Know Your Business) verification on a Canadian company and have the business name and province. Ideal for autonomous agents that need pay-per-use verification without subscription commitments, especially when onboarding vendors, partners, or counterparties registered in Canadian provinces.

## Known failure modes

- Business not found in the specified province — returns empty or error result
- Invalid province code — validation error
- Payment not provided or insufficient — 402 response requiring x402 payment of $0.30 USDC
- Rate limiting or upstream registry unavailability
- Ambiguous business name matches multiple entities
