The `check_zipper_status` tool verifies the API connection immediately. You confirm ZipperHQ is working before you spend time building anything else. This simple check tells your agent whether the entire communication platform is live or if there’s an issue with authentication.

Get Video Details and Analytics

Need to know how well a video performed? Use `get_video_analytics` for specific data points. You pull metrics like views and engagement rates instantly. Plus, `get_contact_views` tells you exactly which people watched the content, giving you immediate feedback on your message's reach.

Search and List Video Content

Find that one video from last month using `search_videos`. You can filter videos by keywords or browse through all recorded materials with `list_recordings`. Want to see the list of people you've messaged? Just run `list_contacts`. It gives you a clean roster of every recipient.
