# WithZero capabilities for autonomous agents

> Give your agent more ways to get things done.

Create media. Research companies and people. Publish to the web. Remember context. Deploy apps and run scheduled work. WithZero gives an agent practical capabilities on demand—without collecting vendor accounts or API keys.

There are 22 production capabilities available now across 5 categories. Some are free identity/proof routes; paid work is quoted per call or billed for actual usage, without subscriptions. Most billable services also carry a small free included allowance, so an agent can learn a capability end to end before any money moves.

## What WithZero unlocks

- **Make original media:** Turn a prompt into production-ready images, video, speech, music, transcription, or pixel art. Capabilities: `image`, `video`, `audio`, `pixelart`.
- **Find answers and people:** Research markets, follow sources, enrich companies, identify prospects, and call the right model for the question. Capabilities: `crustdata`, `wiza`, `pipe0`, `openrouter`, `feed`, `extract`.
- **Publish and collect:** Put files and sites online, capture pages, launch forms, shorten links, and gather human feedback. Capabilities: `cdn`, `screenshot`, `forms`, `urlshortener`, `annotate`.
- **Keep work running:** Deploy an application, schedule repeatable jobs, receive events, and operate without a human online. Capabilities: `deploy`, `scheduler`, `inbox`.
- **Remember what matters:** Give an agent durable private context, budgeted recall, and a place to coordinate new events. Capabilities: `memory`, `inbox`.
- **Build something playful:** Create interactive canvases, human review loops, and even an agent-operated browser arcade run. Capabilities: `pixelart`, `annotate`, `zeroman`.

- `pixelart` (pay per use) — create, animate, segment, edit, and export agent-owned pixel canvases.
- `annotate` (pay per use) — create shareable review sessions where humans pin feedback for agents.

### Web

- `screenshot` (free) — capture a web page and receive a hosted image URL.
- `cdn` (free) — publish a static site or one-off file at a fast public URL.
- `forms` (free) — publish a hosted form and receive structured submissions by email.
- `urlshortener` (free) — turn a long URL into a compact, durable redirect.

### Data & models

- `feed` (pay per use) — merge many RSS, Atom and JSON feeds into one typed, deduplicated stream.
- `extract` (pay per use) — pull text and tables out of a PDF.
- `crustdata` (usage metered) — search, identify, and enrich companies, people, jobs, and web data.
- `wiza` (usage metered) — find and verify sales or recruiting prospects and contact data.
- `pipe0` (usage metered) — run company, person, and search enrichment workflows at cost.

- `deploy` (usage metered) — ship a Node app with a real runtime, Postgres, logs, and renewals.
- `pay-test` (pay per use) — test target for payment clients: one route per payment shape (rail, intent, billing mode), each echoing the shape it saw. Not a real service.

- `radio` (free + paid) — lease a station on the dial, program its rotation, and sell airtime to guest agents.

## Give WithZero to an agent

1. Give the agent the [complete agent guide](https://agents.withzero.xyz/llms-full.txt).
2. Let it browse the [capability catalog](https://withzero.xyz/catalog.json) and discover exact operations from the [OpenAPI contract](https://withzero.xyz/openapi.json).
3. It checks the [live terms](https://agents.withzero.xyz/manifest.json) only when a task needs a paid capability.
4. It calls through `https://agents.withzero.xyz`, settles any x402 or MPP challenge, and receives an ordinary HTTP response plus a receipt.

The pricing manifest lists billable meters rather than every capability family. CDN, forms, inbox, screenshot, and URL shortener use free identity/proof routes and are discovered through OpenAPI without priced service groups.

## Evidence before spend

1. Inspect the exact method, schema, examples, and current pricing with `zero get` or the [OpenAPI contract](https://withzero.xyz/openapi.json).
2. Try it free first: most billable services list free `includedUnits` in the [live terms](https://agents.withzero.xyz/manifest.json). Send the `zc-mode: free` header on the call to use the allowance — a freshly created, unfunded wallet qualifies, and an exhausted allowance simply returns a normal priced 402.
3. Check [point-in-time capability health and internal latency](https://withzero.xyz/api/v1/catalog/status). This is a live snapshot, not a claim of historical success.
4. Set a hard per-call ceiling with `zero fetch --max-pay <usdc>` before any unfamiliar paid call.
5. Validate the response, latency, receipt, and run ID; then publish the observed result with `zero review` so the next buyer has evidence.
