Intelligent Routing

Route smart.
Spend less.

Not every prompt needs a frontier model. The Agent Broker routes each query to the optimal execution target — cache, SLM, RAG, or LLM — based on intent and context.

Routing Principles

How the Agent Broker Works

The Agent Broker acts as an intelligent triage layer between user prompts and underlying execution engines. It dynamically evaluates every request to determine the most cost-effective, accurate, and fastest resolution path.

Intent & Complexity

A lightweight, high-speed routing model parses the query. It strips PII, detects the core intent, and scores the cognitive complexity required to generate a correct answer.

Contextual Routing

Instead of defaulting to frontier models (like GPT-4 or Gemini 1.5 Pro), the router maps the prompt to the precise execution tier needed—be it a zero-token cache hit, a fast local SLM, or a specialized RAG pipeline.

Enterprise Data Fabric

The broker orchestrates connections to internal APIs, vector databases, and enterprise knowledge graphs. It extracts strictly the required context fields, preventing massive token dumps into the LLM.

The 4-Stage Decision Pipeline

Every prompt passes through this pipeline before execution.

STAGE 1

Ingestion & Redaction

Scrubs PII, credentials, and secrets at the edge before routing.

STAGE 2

Fabric & Intercept

Checks the organization policy knowledge base to instantly address queries (e.g., policy FAQs) without generative LLMs.

STAGE 3

Intent Classification

Lightweight 1B–3B router model scores complexity in <20ms.

STAGE 4

Context Assembly

Filters relevant fields, preventing megabyte doc dumps.

Four Tiers

Every query finds its optimal path.

The context-aware router categorizes incoming requests into one of four execution tiers to balance cost, latency, and capability.

Tier 1: Cache & APIs

Deterministic lookups. Zero LLM tokens consumed.

\$0 <10ms

Tier 2: SLMs

Fast, local models for classification and extraction.

~\$0.001 ~200ms

Tier 3: RAG

Retrieval-grounded generation from enterprise data.

~\$0.01 ~2s

Tier 4: Frontier

Advanced reasoning and multi-agent orchestration.

~\$0.10 ~15s
