Unverified50% confidenceSolutionExact time
The model cascade (Cascade) approach is to first use a cheap model to handle all requests and output a confidence score or structured marker, and forward only difficult cases below the threshold to a stronger model, typically with about 80% of simple requests resolved by the cheap model

UnverifiedUsing a lightweight verification model or classifier much smaller than the main model to judge output credibility can keep VRAM overhead to a minimum.70% similarUnverifiedAdopting a model routing and tiered selection strategy (using lightweight models for execution operations and flagship models for case generation) can keep API call costs within the range of 20%–40% of using only a top-tier model.69% similarUnverified当Cursor检测到账号使用异常时，可能会将请求路由到性能较低的模型版本或降低响应质量，这被称为模型降智69% similarUnverifiedThe key to cost optimization has shifted from 'which model to choose' to 'how to distribute requests', and the reasonable approach is routing: hand about 90% of calls that don't need frontier intelligence to cheap models, and route the remaining 10% of requests that need frontier reasoning to high-end models.67% similarUnverified效率型模型以远低于旗舰模型的推理成本（通常低5-10倍）提供接近旗舰模型80-90%的能力表现66% similar
