Replay real tasks
Use representative prompts, files, tools and expected outputs from the workload you plan to ship.
Measure task cost
Include retries, cached tokens, long-context rules and tool charges—not only headline input price.
Track failures
Record hallucinations, tool errors, timeout behavior and human corrections alongside pass rate.
Route by task
A portfolio can outperform a one-model policy when different task classes have different cost and capability needs.
