Sending Each Request to the Right Model, and Copin…

Most systems pick one model and send everything to it. That is the right way to start and a poor place to stay, because workloads are rarely uniform: classifying a support ticket and drafting a legal summary have very different requirements and very different costs. Model routing means matching the request to the capability it actually needs. Done carefully it reduces cost substantially and improves latency on the majority of requests. Segment the workload first Before routing anything, look at what your system is actually asked to do and in what proportions. Almost every workload turns out to be dominated
