Model Routing Cuts Costs Without Losing Quality
Route simple queries to cheap models (GPT-5.4 Mini, Gemini Flash, Haiku) and complex ones to premium models (GPT-5.4, Claude Opus). Using a lightweight classifier or a rule-based router, you can serve 80%+ of queries with cheap models and reserve expensive ones for the hard 20%.
Tokenization Varies by Model
Different LLMs use different tokenizers. The same piece of text can result in a varying number of tokens depending on the model, which impacts cost and context window usage. Tools like TokenCalculator help you see these differences.
Choose the Right Model for the Task
Don't always use the largest, most expensive model. Smaller, faster models can be sufficient and more cost-effective for simpler tasks. Evaluate tradeoffs between capability, speed, and cost.
Setting Up Token Monitoring
Monitor your LLM usage to optimize costs: 1) Implement logging for all API calls, 2) Track tokens per request and response, 3) Set up alerts for unusual usage patterns, 4) Create dashboards showing cost trends, 5) Analyze which prompts are most expensive and optimize them.
