But behind every interaction with an AI model, there is a factor that is often overlooked: each request has a cost, and that cost depends directly on the amount of information we send to the model.<\/p><p>This information is measured in <strong>tokens<\/strong>, minimal units that include words, symbols, and fragments of text. The more tokens you send, the higher the cost. And here lies a key issue: the most commonly used data format, JSON, contains a large amount of syntactic elements that increase token consumption without adding real value for the AI.<\/p><p>To solve this inefficiency, TOON (Token-Oriented Object Notation) emerges as a new data format designed specifically to communicate with language models in a more economical, compact, and efficient way.<\/p><h2>The problem with JSON in AI environments<\/h2><p>For years, JSON has been the standard for data exchange due to its clarity, compatibility, and ease of use. However, when communication is directly with a language model, it presents limitations that translate into unnecessary costs.<\/p><p>The first problem is symbols: braces, quotation marks, brackets, and commas are essential for a program to understand structure, but an AI model does not need this \u201cvisual decoration.\u201d All these symbols become additional tokens that increase cost without adding semantic information.<\/p><p>But the most significant problem appears when working with lists (sets of records). If a list includes hundreds or thousands of items, the field names are repeated over and over again.<\/p><p>For example, in GPT-3.5 and GPT-4 models, a simple JSON representing basic data of three users consumes about 54 tokens:<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-cd3fff7 elementor-widget elementor-widget-code-highlight\" data-id=\"cd3fff7\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"code-highlight.default\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"prismjs-tomorrow  word-wrap\">\n\t\t\t<pre data-line=\"\" class=\"highlight-height language-json \">\n\t\t\t\t<code readonly=\"true\" class=\"language-json\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<xmp>[{\"name\":\"Alice\",\"email\":\"alice@example.com\"},{\"name\":\"Bob\",\"email\":\"bob@example.com\"},{\"name\":\"Carol\",\"email\":\"carol@example.com\"}]<\/xmp>\n\t\t\t\t<\/code>\n\t\t\t<\/pre>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-5636349 elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"5636349\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<p><br>The same data in TOON format consumes only <strong>29 tokens<\/strong>, <strong>a 46% reduction<\/strong>:<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-3a63a51 elementor-widget elementor-widget-code-highlight\" data-id=\"3a63a51\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"code-highlight.default\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"prismjs-tomorrow  word-wrap\">\n\t\t\t<pre data-line=\"\" class=\"highlight-height language-markup \">\n\t\t\t\t<code readonly=\"true\" class=\"language-markup\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<xmp>\nitems[3]{name,email}:\n  Alice,alice@example.com\n  Bob,bob@example.com\n  Carol,carol@example.com\n  <\/xmp>\n\t\t\t\t<\/code>\n\t\t\t<\/pre>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-b1ec41d elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"b1ec41d\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<p><br \/>The difference is remarkable: in TOON, field names are declared only once in the schema, and the data is presented in a tabular format without repetition. This reduction may seem small in a tiny example, but when scaled to thousands of records, the economic impact becomes substantial.<\/p><p>Essentially, JSON was designed for human readability and system interoperability. AI models, however, can work with much more compact structures without losing understanding. Processing all that decorative syntax means spending unnecessary tokens which, in large-scale applications, turn into real and ongoing costs.<\/p><h2>TOON: efficiency without sacrificing structure<\/h2><p>In response to these limitations, <strong>TOON is based on a simple principle: remove everything the model does not need and keep only the relevant information<\/strong>. It behaves like JSON in terms of structure and expressiveness, but represents it in a more compact way.<\/p><p>Additionally, the benefit is not only economic. Fewer tokens also mean less workload for the model, which results in faster responses. In high-concurrency systems, where every millisecond counts, this efficiency can significantly improve user experience.<\/p><p>Moreover, explicit schemas help the model interpret data with greater structural clarity, reducing ambiguities and potentially improving the quality of generated responses.<\/p><h2>When to use TOON and when not<\/h2><p>TOON is particularly valuable in specific scenarios. If an application analyzes large volumes of structured data \u2014for example, processing records of tens of thousands of users, where JSON might consume 500K tokens versus 250K with TOON\u2014 the savings are substantial.<\/p><p>The same applies to batch processing systems that analyze logs, transactions, or metrics at scale, or for startups and projects where every euro of the AI budget matters.<\/p><p>However, <strong>TOON does not fully replace JSON in all contexts<\/strong>. Public APIs will continue to use JSON for reasons of universal compatibility and established web standards. In highly irregular structures or deeply nested heterogeneous data, savings may be lower and readability could be compromised.<\/p><p>The tool ecosystem \u2014parsers, validators, debuggers\u2014 for JSON remains broader and more mature. And for extremely simple cases, formats like CSV can be even lighter.<\/p><p>For this reason, the most practical strategy is<strong> to keep JSON in the general application architecture<\/strong> and <strong>convert to TOON only at the communication point with the AI model<\/strong>.<\/p><p>In a world where every token counts and AI budgets can escalate quickly, adopting formats like TOON is a strategic decision for organizations operating at scale. It is not about abandoning proven standards, but about using the right tool for each context.<\/p><p><strong>JSON will remain essential for web interoperability<\/strong>, but when communication is directly with AI models, <strong>TOON positions itself as a more efficient option<\/strong> for those looking to optimize costs without sacrificing clarity.<\/p><h2>Take your AI strategy to the next level with ThinkUPC<\/h2><p>At ThinkUPC, we don&#8217;t just identify solutions like TOON for cost and token optimization; we are experts in the strategic application of Artificial Intelligence.
