# Web URL Distillation & BM25 Token-Budget Extraction

> Web URL Distillation & BM25 Token-Budget Extraction is a paid API for AI agents from sec-intel.agentdiet.dev, paid per call via MPP, $0.001/call, status unknown (last checked 2026-10-21).

Fetches a webpage (or accepts raw HTML) and compresses it into compact agent-ready tokens using selectable modes including BM25-ranked budget excerpts

Status and success rate cover calls made through Zero and Zero's own probes. Third-party monitors may report differently.

## How to call it through Zero

Zero handles the 402 payment challenge and records the run. With the Zero CLI installed (`npm i -g @zeroxyz/cli`):

```sh
zero fetch --capability sec-intel-agentdiet-dev-web-url-distillation-bm25-token-budget-cb227dcf
```

Example prompt: Distill the content at https://stripe.com/docs/payments into compact markdown and tell me how many tokens were saved compared to the raw page.

## When to prefer this

Choose this endpoint when you need to pass web content to an LLM but want to minimize token usage and cost — especially when working with large documentation pages, competitor sites, or research articles. It is particularly valuable when you need BM25-focused excerpts (mode=budget) to extract only the most query-relevant sentences within a strict token ceiling. Prefer it over raw fetch-and-pass workflows whenever context window size or LLM inference cost is a concern.

## Known failure modes

- URL unreachable or returns non-200 status — endpoint may return an error status
- HTML too large or malformed — distillation may be incomplete
- max_tokens too low to represent any meaningful content — returns minimal excerpt
- BM25 query finds no relevant passages — budget excerpt may be nearly empty
- Payment failure via x402 — request blocked before processing
- Invalid mode enum value — request rejected with validation error

## How this service works

Distill a URL or raw HTML payload with BM25 budget control (Live x402 v2, IETF MPP & MCP endpoint at https://sec-intel.agentdiet.dev/api/diet)

## Output

Returns a status field, distilled content (Markdown text, structured JSON tables/metadata, skeleton outline, or BM25-ranked excerpt depending on mode), cache hit/miss info with latency, billing details, and an roi_proof object showing raw vs distilled token counts, compression ratio, tokens saved, and estimated LLM cost saved in USD.
