Token Cut
PaidAPI that routes each prompt to the cheapest model able to handle it
What is Token Cut?
Token Cut sits in front of many AI models and uses a small decision model called Jev to judge each request, then sends it to the lowest-priced model that fits your settings. Developers use it to cut token spending and latency through one API key.
Requests are grouped from cheap tasks like classification through standard rewriting and translation to reasoning, frontier and agentic work. The same API covers text, image, video and audio, drawing on providers such as OpenRouter, kie.ai, Replicate and fal.ai.
Pricing is per request plus a routing fee, with published ranges for each task type. Jev can also be called on its own for classification, scoring and choice questions.
