What it does
Most LLM calls in production are repeats. Same questions, same prompts, sometimes worded slightly differently. SemanticGuard caches them. Sits between your app and OpenAI/Anthropic/Google, returns cache hits in <50ms, cuts costs 40-70%. One line of code to install. Shadow Mode shows your savings before you flip caching on. Every hit validated by your own AI so you never serve a wrong answer.
AI gateway that reduces OpenAI, Anthropic, and Google AI costs with intelligent caching that's measured at 100% correctness on our public benchmark. 1 line of code to integrate. Free tier available.
SemanticGuard is the only AI control plane that pays for itself. Audit every tool call, enforce policy on the destructive ones, and cache the responses. Median 50% savings and 100% cache correctness on our public benchmark. Governance-only tools cost you a line item. SemanticGuard funds itself with the LLM spend it eliminates. One line of code. OpenAI, Anthropic, Google, Azure, Bedrock, Mistral. import { createOpenAI } from "@ai-sdk/openai" ; import { withSemanticGuard } from "@semanticguard/ai-sdk" ; const openai = createOpenAI ( { apiKey : "sk-..." , fetch : withSemanticGuard ( { apiKey : "sg-your-key-here" , } ) , } ) ; // All calls now cached + tracked automatically. Tool calls // in…from semanticguard.dev

- RCReduce ChatGPT costs 10x with distributed cache for LLMs2024 · edgematic.dev · ▲22
Hello HN! We're building a caching solution for LLMs (ChatGPT, Claude). By combining cutting-edge approaches, such as edge computing, prompt compression, vectorization, and others - it can reduce your AI bills by up to 10x and significantly lower response times. Key Features: - cost efficiency: our system stores frequent queries, reducing the number of upstream (paid) API calls - fast responses: with various nodes globally, we reduce latency by serving data from the nearest location - scalability: designed to handle increasing loads and data sizes without degrading performance. The cache…
- ATA tool to benchmark LLM APIs (OpenAI, Claude, local/self-hosted)2025 · llmapitest.com · ▲55
I recently built a small open-source tool to benchmark different LLM API endpoints — including OpenAI, Claude, and self-hosted models (like llama.cpp). It runs a configurable number of test requests and reports two key metrics: • First-token latency (ms): How long it takes for the first token to appear • Output speed (tokens/sec): Overall output fluency Demo: https://llmapitest.com/ Code: https://github.com/qjr87/llm-api-test The goal is to provide a simple, visual, and reproducible way to evaluate performance across different LLM providers, including…

Hey HN, Henry here from Cactus. We open-sourced Needle, a 26M parameter function-calling (tool use) model. It runs at 6000 tok/s prefill and 1200 tok/s decode on consumer devices. We were always frustrated by the little effort made towards building agentic models that run on budget phones, so we conducted investigations that led to an observation: agentic experiences are built upon tool calling, and massive models are overkill for it. Tool calling is fundamentally retrieval-and-assembly (match query to tool name, extract argument values, emit JSON), not reasoning. Cross-attention…
