By implementing a tiered LLM architecture using Haiku as a triage agent to filter duplicate issues before escalating to the more expensive Opus model, the organization reduced overall LLM costs while improving investigation quality—with 80% of failures resolved without reaching the frontier model. This cost-effective approach demonstrates that strategic model layering, combined with agent-driven data access patterns and hierarchical task decomposition, can deliver superior performance at lower expense than relying on a single capable model. IT leaders should reconsider their generative AI cost structures, as intelligent routing and selective model deployment can dramatically improve ROI on LLM investments.
