How this service works
Distill a URL or raw HTML payload with BM25 budget control (Live x402 v2, IETF MPP & MCP endpoint at https://alpha-stream.agentdiet.dev/v1/article-extractor)
Output
Returns a JSON object with a 'data' field containing the distilled content (Markdown text, structured JSON tables/metadata, skeleton outline, or BM25-focused excerpt depending on mode), plus an 'roi_proof' object showing raw token count, distilled token count, tokens saved, compression ratio percentage, and estimated LLM cost saved in USD. Also includes optional cache hit/miss status and billing details.
Example use cases
Research article extraction for agent
“Grab the content from https://www.nature.com/articles/d41586-024-00001-0 and distill it into clean markdown so I can read the key findings without all the webpage clutter.”
Token-budget web summarization
“Fetch https://stripe.com/docs/payments/accept-a-payment and give me a tight summary in budget mode focused on 'Accept a payment' — keep it under 300 tokens so it fits in my prompt.”
Structured data extraction from webpage
“Pull the page at https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Large_language_model and distill it into structured mode so I can get the tables and metadata as JSON.”

Endpoint
GEThttps://alpha-stream.agentdiet.dev/v1/article-extractor?utm_source=zero.xyzWhen to prefer
Choose this endpoint when an AI agent needs to ingest webpage content but must stay within token budgets or minimize LLM costs — especially when BM25 query-focused extraction is needed to zero in on relevant sections. Prefer over generic scraping tools when you need token-count ROI metrics or multiple distillation modes (markdown, structured, skeleton, budget) in a single call. Ideal for agents doing research, document parsing, or RAG pipelines where raw HTML would be too noisy and expensive.
Side effects
- URL is unreachable or returns non-200 HTTP status — endpoint may return an error status
- Paywalled or JavaScript-rendered pages may yield incomplete or empty content
- max_tokens set too low may produce truncated or empty budget excerpts
- Raw HTML input is malformed or empty, yielding no extractable content
- Payment/402 failure if agent wallet has insufficient USDC balance
