Interactive Benchmarks for Model Routing Reduce Costs by 20-80%
September 1, 2026
A new evaluation methodology for model routing uses interactive benchmarks to capture agent cost accumulation more accurately than static benchmarks. The reported routing approach achieves Pareto-dominance by matching Claude 3 Opus quality at 20% to 80% lower cost.
