Once you see the range of prices, a practical approach stands out. You do not have to use one model for everything. Most steps in our review (reading, pulling out details, and double-checking) are routine, and a budget model handles them well. A smaller share, the real risk analysis, is better suited to a stronger model. And a small slice of truly hard, high-stakes questions is worth sending to the best model available.
So you can route the work by difficulty. Send about 70 percent to a budget model, 20 percent to a mid-tier model, and the hardest 10 percent to a frontier model. Use Maverick, Sonnet, and Opus for those tiers, and the blended cost comes to about $369,000 a year. That is 76 percent less than running Opus for everything, and 60 percent less than running Sonnet for everything. And the strongest model is still there for the questions that need it. This kind of routing is one of the most effective ways to manage agentic AI costs. It often gets set up later, usually after someone in finance asks why the cloud bill looks the way it does.
