Auto routing is live: stop paying Opus prices for easy requests

No dark-mode styles — this email renders the same in a dark client.

A decision model reads the first message and picks the route. Up to 43% lower cost in early benchmarks.

Now live

*********************
Pay top-tier prices
only for hard requests
*********************

Not every request needs your most expensive model. A quick question and a hard, multi-step task cost the same per token if they go to the same model. Auto routing looks at each new conversation and sends it to the model you chose for that kind of request.

Routes from the policy we use for our own coding agents.

Up to 43%

lower cost on coding tasks

Up to 30%

lower latency

Internal benchmarks against sending everything to the strongest model. Your results may vary.

How it works
------------

1

Describe your requests in plain language

Write each type in plain language and pick a model for it. Or start from a template.

2

A decision model picks the route

A decision model reads the first message and chooses. If it isn’t sure, your fallback model takes it.

3

The choice sticks for the session

The whole conversation stays on one model, so prompt caching keeps working.

4

Test it before you ship

Try real messages first. A test costs a fraction of a cent.

-----------------------

export ANTHROPIC_BASE_URL="https://router.requesty.ai"
export ANTHROPIC_AUTH_TOKEN="<your Requesty key>"
export ANTHROPIC_MODEL="policy/<your-policy>"

Anywhere else, set model to policy/<your-policy>. It works with the Chat Completions, Messages and Responses APIs, including streaming and tools.
