## 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 x402-deployer-x402-deployer-workers-dev-93cc6769 -d '<json body>'
```

Example prompt: Summarize this podcast episode for me in bullet-point style: https://example.com/episode-42.mp3 — I want the key takeaways pulled out clearly.

## When to prefer this

Choose this endpoint when you need both transcription and summarization in a single call without stitching together separate Whisper and LLM APIs. Ideal for agents processing video or podcast URLs and needing ready-to-consume summaries in a specific format (especially chapters or executive briefs). Best for one-shot workflows where latency is acceptable and cost per call ($0.10 USDC) is reasonable.

## Known failure modes

- Unsupported or unreachable media URL returns an error
- Audio too long or too large may time out or fail transcription
- Invalid or unrecognized style value returns a validation error
- Private or DRM-protected content cannot be fetched
- Venice AI summarization failure returns a partial or empty summary

## How this service works

Single-shot video/podcast summarizer. Transcribes via Whisper + summarizes via Venice in one call. Styles: tldr, bullets, paragraph, executive, chapters.

## Output
