SolutionClaude (Anthropic) API Cost Optimization Service
We cut your Anthropic spend without changing your product: same models where they're needed, cheaper routes where they're not, and every change tested on your evals.
At least 20% lower Anthropic costs after our 10% fee, live in one day, or you pay nothing.
The Claude levers we use
- Prompt caching: cache reads on Claude Sonnet 5.5 cost $0.10 per 1M tokens against $2.00. We place breakpoints and choose 5-minute or 1-hour caches.
- Message Batches: 50% off input and output, stacking with caching.
- Effort: lower thinking effort where your evals allow.
- Model choice: Claude Haiku 5.5 is a fortieth of Opus 5.5's price for simple work.

How it works
- Free teardown. 15 minutes on a usage export. You see your biggest waste and the first fix we'd ship.
- Live in one day. You change one base URL. We switch on caching, routing, batching, and prompt and output fixes in the gateway.
- Measured on your traffic. Cost per equivalent request against an agreed baseline, typically over 14 days, reconciled with your invoices.
- Pay only from savings. Our fee is 10% of verified savings. If your all-in bill isn't at least 20% lower after it, you pay nothing.

Frequently asked questions
How can I reduce my Anthropic API costs?
Cache repeated prompts, move work that can wait to batch pricing, cap output and reasoning, and route simple requests to cheaper models after testing them.
Do you need to change our Anthropic setup?
No. You point your base URL at apicuts; your models and prompts stay the same unless you approve a change.
