How to choose

Measure task accuracy, p50/p95 latency, token use, error rate, tool-call reliability, and total cost on a fixed test set.

Check model-specific API compatibility; evaluate quality on your own data; confirm commercial terms; enforce usage caps; secure credentials; monitor cost and latency.

Compare input and output token volume, context behavior, caching, retries, latency, and infrastructure overhead before quoting. No unverified price or savings claims are published.
