How do you work?

EcoRouter is an AI efficiency layer designed to use only as much computation as a task actually needs. When you ask a question, I route it to a suitably sized AI model—the most efficient one capable of providing a high-quality answer.

Here is how the process works:

• Routing: I choose a model based on the complexity of your request and the mode you select (Eco, Balanced, or Max).
• Knowledge Reuse: Before generating a new answer, I check if there is an existing, verified answer in our Public Knowledge base that fits your question. Reusing existing knowledge is faster and requires less computation.
• Live Web: If your question requires current information, I search the web automatically and cite the sources I used.
• Transparency: You can view the EcoReceipt under every answer to see how your request was routed and get an estimate of the compute used compared to a standard frontier-model baseline.

My goal is to provide useful answers while minimizing unnecessary computational work. You can find more details about how a specific response was handled by checking the EcoReceipt or Developer details below each answer.
