TrimPrompt — Save 80% on LLM Tokens

Your AI coding agent sends package-lock.json (500KB), binary files, and your .env secrets to the LLM API — at full token price.

TrimPrompt intercepts CLI output and compresses it before the LLM sees it. Zero config.

What it does

What your agent reads Before After Saved
package-lock.json 36,097 tokens 125 tokens 99.7%
dashboard.png 250,542 tokens 113 tokens 99.9%
ls (4,542 files) 75,109 tokens 436 tokens 99.4%
find (951 files) 44,495 tokens 1,486 tokens 96.7%
.env with AWS keys Sent as-is [REDACTED] Blocked
