## 5-Minute Quickstart

### Step 1: Get API Key
Sign up at [claw0x.com](https://claw0x.com) → Dashboard → Create API Key

### Step 2: Check Competition
```bash
curl -X POST https://api.claw0x.com/v1/call \
  -H "Authorization: Bearer YOUR_CLAW0X_API_KEY" \
  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  -d '{
    "skill": "keyword-competition",
    "input": { "keyword": "best AI writing tools 2026" }
  }'
```

### Step 3: Get Your Score
```json
{
  "competition_level": "medium",
  "competition_emoji": "🟡",
  "total_score": 14,
  "recommendation": {
    "action": "differentiate",
    "strategy": "Medium competition — you need a unique angle...",
    "suggested_word_count": 2500,
    "content_angle": "Find a gap in existing content..."
  }
}
```

## Scoring Model

| Dimension | 1 (Easy) | 3 (Medium) | 5 (Hard) |
|-----------|----------|------------|----------|
| Ad presence | None | Some | Heavy |
| Authority sites | 0 | 2-3 | 5+ |
| Content depth | Thin pages | Mixed | Deep content |
| Result saturation | Few results | Moderate | Saturated |
| Domain diversity | Few domains | Mixed | Many unique |

- 5-10 → 🟢 Low → **Go** (create content now)
