How this service works
Distill a URL or raw HTML payload with BM25 budget control (Live x402 v2, IETF MPP & MCP endpoint at https://mesh.agentdiet.dev/api/diet)
Output
Returns a status field, distilled data object (markdown text, structured JSON, skeleton outline, or BM25-focused excerpt depending on mode), an roi_proof object showing raw vs distilled token counts, compression ratio, and estimated LLM cost saved, plus optional cache hit/miss info and billing details.
Example use cases
LLM cost reduction for research pipelines
“Fetch https://openai.com/research/gpt-4 and distill it into markdown, keeping only the most relevant content so I'm not burning tokens on boilerplate.”
Budget-focused Q&A grounding
“Pull this URL https://docs.anthropic.com/claude/reference and distill it in budget mode focused on the query 'rate limits', with a hard cap of 500 tokens so I can use it as context without blowing my budget.”
Structured data extraction from a web page
“Take https://news.ycombinator.com and distill it in structured mode so I get the key tables and metadata as clean JSON instead of raw HTML.”

Endpoint
GEThttps://mesh.agentdiet.dev/api/diet?utm_source=zero.xyzWhen to prefer
Choose this endpoint when you need to feed webpage content to an LLM but want to minimize token usage and cost — especially useful for long documentation pages, news articles, or any web content where you want clean markdown, structured tables, or a BM25-focused excerpt rather than raw HTML. Prefer it over generic scrapers when token budget control and ROI tracking matter to your agent pipeline.
Side effects
- Invalid or unreachable URL returns an error status
- URL behind a paywall or login wall may return incomplete or empty content
- Exceeding the token ceiling in budget mode may truncate results
- Raw HTML input conflicts with URL parameter
- Network timeouts on slow external sites
- Rate limiting or payment failure via x402 if USDC balance is insufficient
