A reviewer says LongCat-2.0 cut their agent input cost by 88% thanks to cache hits.
- They also built a request analysis tool on top of LongCat-2.0 to measure cache hit rates for any model/API and suggest optimizations.
- In the test, LongCat-2.0 is praised as a very cost-effective model when caching works well.
- The reviewer argues it is especially suitable for everyday office agents: writing reports, fetching daily news, automating tests, and handling lots of backend coding.
