In Agent workflows, the proportion of repeated context in total input is extremely high, so the decline in caching costs is far more significant for Agent developers than for ordinary users.

UnverifiedThe marginal cost of AI models decreases as scale expands; the more users there are, the lower the average cost per inference after optimization through batching and GPU utilization.66% similarUnverifiedIn Agent scenarios, due to the extensive orchestration, state management, and external system interactions involved, the general-compute share may further rise to 70%–80%.65% similarUnverifiedA single browser control agent task may require the model to perform 10 to 50 consecutive reasoning steps, making its unit cost far higher than that of ordinary question-and-answer queries.65% similarUnverifiedFor an agent that executes 10 steps, adding a read-back check at each step may increase token consumption by 40%–80% and significantly raise end-to-end latency.63% similarUnverifiedImproving the cache hit rate from 60% to 80% may reduce the total cost per task by more than 30%.62% similar
