How this service works
Distill a URL or raw HTML payload with BM25 budget control (Live x402 v2, IETF MPP & MCP endpoint at https://workflows.agentdiet.dev/v1/html-to-markdown)
Output
Returns a JSON object with a 'data' field containing the distilled content (Markdown, structured JSON tables, skeleton outline, or BM25 budget excerpt depending on mode), plus an 'roi_proof' object showing raw token count, distilled token count, tokens saved, compression ratio percentage, estimated LLM cost saved in USD, and ROI multiplier. Also includes optional cache hit/miss status and billing metadata.
Example use cases
Research page compressed for agent context
“Grab https://openai.com/research/gpt-4 and distill it into clean markdown — I need it compact enough to fit in my context window without burning too many tokens.”
BM25 focused excerpt from documentation
“Fetch the Stripe docs at https://stripe.com/docs/api and extract only the sections most relevant to 'refunds and disputes' with a strict budget of 300 tokens.”
Raw HTML cleaned up for downstream parsing
“I have this raw HTML from a scraped product page — can you convert it to structured markdown so I can pull out the product name, price, and availability?”

Endpoint
POSThttps://workflows.agentdiet.dev/v1/html-to-markdown?utm_source=zero.xyzWhen to prefer
Choose this endpoint when you need to fetch and compress web content into agent-friendly tokens, especially when LLM context window limits or cost constraints matter. It is particularly valuable over generic scraping tools when you need BM25-ranked budget control to surface only the most query-relevant content. Use it instead of raw HTML fetching whenever you want automated markdown conversion with built-in ROI metrics showing exactly how many tokens and dollars were saved.
Side effects
- URL is unreachable or returns non-200 — fetch failure error
- HTML payload is empty or malformed — parsing error
- max_tokens set below minimum of 20 — validation error
- BM25 query provided without mode=budget — query may be ignored
- Target page blocks bots or requires authentication — empty or partial content returned
- Token budget too small for meaningful extraction — truncated or minimal output
