Why TypeScript for this

Semantic caching pays for itself immediately in any system with repeated questions, support assistants and internal search especially.

TypeScript is strongest at one language across client and server, with types catching integration errors at build time. For llm cost optimisation that matters because the failure modes of this kind of system tend to cluster exactly there.

The honest trade-off: the ML ecosystem is in Python, so heavy model work lives there. We say that up front because a stack chosen for fashion rather than fit becomes someone's migration project two years later. Integration comes before intelligence. A model that cannot reach your systems of record is a demo with good manners.

We hand over with runbooks, tests and a team that knows how it works, not a dependency.

We are not a reseller for TypeScript and hold no commission on this choice. Where a different option fits your workload better, the recommendation will say so. That is the entire value of asking us.

What is included

  • Spend audit broken down by feature and by call
  • Model routing so each task uses the cheapest adequate model
  • Semantic caching for repeated and near-identical queries
  • Prompt compression that preserves meaning
  • Budget ceilings and anomaly alerts
  • Quality benchmarked before and after, so savings are not silent regressions

Questions

How much can we realistically save?

Most unoptimised systems have 40 to 70% of avoidable spend, concentrated in a few features. The audit tells you the specific number for your workload before you commit to any work.

Will quality drop?

We benchmark before and after on your real tasks. Any change that measurably degrades output does not ship. That is the whole discipline.

How long does the audit take?

About a week for most systems, and it usually pays for itself in the first month after the changes land.

Alternatives for llm cost optimisation

Same capability, different stack. Each page states its own trade-off.
