# How CognitiveX Reduces AI Costs by 85%
AI development costs can spiral quickly. API calls, token usage, and model compute add up fast. CognitiveX addresses this through intelligent optimization.
1. Intelligent Caching
Our caching system recognizes semantically similar queries:
- **Embedding-based Similarity**: Find related past interactions
- **Context-Aware Matching**: Understand intent, not just words
- **Automatic Cache Warming**: Preload likely queries
Result: **60-70% reduction** in redundant API calls.
2. Context Optimization
Token usage matters. We optimize through:
- **Smart Summarization**: Compress context without losing meaning
- **Relevance Filtering**: Only include pertinent information
- **Dynamic Context Windows**: Adjust based on query complexity
Result: **20-30% reduction** in token usage.
3. Model Routing
Not every query needs GPT-4. We route intelligently:
- **Task Analysis**: Understand complexity requirements
- **Cost-Performance Profiles**: Know each model's strengths
- **Automatic Fallback**: Start cheap, escalate if needed
Result: **30-40% cost savings** on model selection.
4. Batch Processing
Group similar operations:
- **Embedding Batches**: Process multiple items together
- **Async Operations**: Don't wait when you don't need to
- **Queue Optimization**: Schedule based on priority and cost
Real Results
Our beta users report:
- Average 85% cost reduction
- Improved response times
- Better quality outputs (more relevant context)
The best part? All optimization is automatic—no configuration needed.
