Journey Steps

  1. 1Step 1 — Control LLM spend without killing quality: start with "Tag every request with feature and tenant for per-unit cost attribution"
  2. 2Step 2 — Guarantee structured outputs from LLMs: start with "Provide the JSON Schema in the prompt and ask for schema-valid output only"
  3. 3Step 3 — Budget LLM latency end to end: start with "Trace one real request through every hop and record percentile timings"
  4. 4How it fits together: Instrument first. Every routing/caching decision needs per-unit cost visibility or you're flying blind.
