How it works

Every query gets the right model. Automatically.

Your app calls RouteIQ exactly like it calls Anthropic or OpenAI. We handle the routing invisibly, in under a millisecond.

01
Your app sends a query
Point your AI client at RouteIQ’s endpoint. No other code changes required.
02
Classifier scores it
Our classifier scores query complexity 0.0–1.0 in under 1ms.
03
Router picks a model
Simple → cheap. Moderate → balanced. Complex → powerful. Each tier is configurable.

FAQ

Common questions

Does RouteIQ only work with Claude / Anthropic?

No — RouteIQ works with any AI provider. It currently supports Anthropic (Haiku, Sonnet, Opus) and OpenAI (GPT-4o mini, GPT-4o, GPT-4 Turbo). Groq, Gemini and Mistral are on the roadmap.

Does RouteIQ read my query content?

Yes — the classifier needs to read the query to score its complexity. All queries are processed in the EU, covered under GDPR, and never used to train models without consent.

What if RouteIQ routes a query to the wrong model?

You can set minimum model thresholds per use case. The classifier also improves over time as it learns your specific query patterns.

Does it add latency?

The routing decision takes under 1ms. RouteIQ often reduces perceived latency by routing simple queries to faster, cheaper models like Haiku which respond 3–5x quicker than Opus.

What if a provider goes down?

RouteIQ includes automatic fallback routing. If Anthropic is unavailable we retry via OpenAI automatically — making RouteIQ more reliable than a direct API call.

Can I keep my existing API keys?

Yes. You keep your existing keys and billing relationship with providers. RouteIQ acts as a neutral proxy and you only pay us a percentage of the saving we generate.
