Tokenless (YC S26) launched on HN with 66 points as a drop-in replacement for OpenAI and Anthropic API calls. Rather than routing by heuristic, it fans each request out to a group of models, watches them think, then selects the one clearly on track and cancels the rest so you pay only for the winner. 52% savings in the featured example, calculator projecting 34% on a $40K monthly spend. Benchmarks reference Claude Opus, Claude Fable, GPT-5.6, and Gemini. Pricing is not published, which tells you something.

Netlify published an AXIS-framework evaluation on August 14 that I've been thinking about all day. Same task, 11 models, three runs each, scored on functional correctness rather than aesthetics. The task was deliberately boring: a static one-page coffee shop site with hours, a...
"Qwen 3.8 morning to you too Dario, 2$ input/ 6$ output per 1M" landed within hours of the August 3 GA announcement. Pricing is confirmed on Alibaba Model Studio at $2.00/$6.00 per million flat across the full 1M context. The community framing is what I'd log: with OpenAI havi...
