Switchboard

Are you overpaying for your AI? Let's find out.

Tell Switchboard what you run and at what volume. It compares open-weight models to your current provider and gives you a clear recommendation to stay, pilot or switch.

What it does

Matches your usage — spend, requests, or raw tokens — and your use case against a benchmark of open-weight models, then scores each candidate on projected savings and the quality gap to your incumbent.

How to use it

Pick your current model, enter your volume, describe your use case (or let the classifier suggest one), and set your quality bar. Switchboard returns a ranked shortlist, projected monthly savings, and the verdict with the reasoning behind it.

What it doesn’t do

It isn’t a benchmark itself and it won’t run your prompts. Verdicts are projections from public head-to-head data — treat a switch as grounds for a pilot, not a migration plan.
