AI Optimisation Service
Under usage-based billing (UBB), every model choice and every prompt directly affects your monthly GitHub Copilot bill. TL Consulting works with your engineering and finance leadership to establish the right model policy, usage standards, and team capabilities to reduce cost without limiting capability.
What Success Looks Like
- 30-45% AIC burn reduction through routing policy
- 4-5x Fewer model requests per engineering task
- Enterprise grade model policy aligned to your security posture
- Governed multi-model access controls in place
Model Fit Based On Task Complexity
Every Model Has Its Place
Smart routing can reduce your GitHub Copilot bill by 30-45%.
Not all models cost the same. Under usage-based billing, every model choice directly impacts your monthly GitHub Copilot bill. Routing the right task to the right model is the fastest way to reduce AI spend without limiting what your engineers can do.
- Premium models can cost up to 50x more per request than lightweight models
- Most everyday engineering tasks do not require the most expensive model
- The biggest driver of AI cost overruns is ungoverned model choice
