ziptoken Documentation

How it works

1. 1

   Obtain an API key

   Create a free account and generate an API key from your dashboard.

2. 2

   POST to /api/v1/compress

   Send your prompt text. Receive a compressed version — typically 25–55% shorter.

3. 3

   Forward to your LLM

   Use the compressed text with Claude, GPT-4, Gemini, or any LLM. Same quality, fewer tokens.

Authentication

All API requests must include your key in the Authorization header:

Authorization: Bearer zt_live_xxxxxxxxxxxx

Example request

curl -X POST https://api.ziptoken.ai/api/v1/compress
  -H "Content-Type: application/json"
  -H "Authorization: Bearer zt_live_xxxx"
  -d '{"text": "Your prompt here", "mode": "balanced"}'
