Cost-Aware Model Routing Framework: Route Simple Requests to Cheaper Models, Reserve Premium for Complex
blaizedsouza · x · 2026-08-16
X user blaizedsouza retweets @AiCamila's post introducing a cost-aware model routing framework: classify requests by complexity and risk, route simple requests to cheaper/faster models, reserve premium models for complex or high-stakes work, fall back to stronger models when confidence is low, and track cost and quality to tune routing rules. Core rule: the most expensive model should be the exception, not the default.
