26
- - Medium tasks → **fast/cheap** providers (Groq $0.59/1M, Cerebras $0.60/1M)
27
- - Complex reasoning → **premium** providers (GPT-4o, Claude)
28

- ### 🧠 Intelligent Routing
141
- Query complexity analysis (0-100 score) → cheapest capable provider. The router **learns from your usage patterns** over time (adaptive memory).
142
-
143
- ### 🛤️ OpenAI-Compatible Proxy
144
- Drop-in replacement for `api.openai.com`. Switch one URL, save 70%.
145
-
146
- ### 📊 Real-Time Dashboard
147
- Live cost tracking, provider health, request logs at `http://localhost:8787/`.
148
-
149
- ### 🤖 LangChain Adapter
150
- ```javascript
151
- import { A3MChatModel } from 'adaptive-memory-multi-model-router/langchain';
152
- const model = new A3MChatModel();
153
- ```
154
-
155
- ### 🛡️ Guardrails
156
- Prompt injection detection, PII redaction, content filtering — enabled by default.
157
-
158
- ### 🗜️ Semantic Cache
159
- Cache semantically similar queries. Same meaning = instant response, zero cost.
160
-
161
- ### 📈 Cost Analytics
162
- Track every request. Export savings reports. Set daily budget limits.

- ## When NOT to Use This
198
-
199
- - You only use one provider and are happy with it
200
- - You need 250+ provider integrations (use Portkey or LiteLLM)
201
- - You're building a simple prototype with <100 queries/day
202
- - You need enterprise SLAs and support contracts

+ Honest problems. Not spin.
205

206
- ## Benchmarks
212
+ **Expert query detection is weak.** 75% of expert queries get routed to cheap/mid tiers. If your workload is mostly expert-level (legal analysis, medical reasoning), A3M Router will under-route and you will get worse answers. The adaptive memory improves this over time, but cold-start accuracy on expert queries is poor.
207
213
 
208
- > Routing accuracy benchmark (RouteLLM methodology). 200 queries across 4 difficulty tiers.
214
+ **24% exact-tier accuracy.** The 82.5% figure is ±1 tier. Exact match is 24%. The router is good at "roughly right," not "precisely right." For cost optimization this is acceptable. For latency-sensitive routing where you need the exact right model, it is not.

+ **Keyword-based, not semantic.** The classifier uses keyword matching and heuristics, not embeddings. It cannot understand query intent beyond surface-level patterns. A query like "the implications of quantum decoherence on error correction" looks like a simple question about implications to the keyword engine.

- **Honest assessment:** The classifier correctly identifies simple queries for cheap/free routing (92% land in free/cheap). Expert queries are the weakest most get routed to cheap/mid instead of premium. The adaptive memory feature improves this over time by learning from circuit breaker feedback.

+ **0 stars, 3 days old.** No community. No enterprise support. No SLA. The npm download spike could be bots. The code has not been audited. Use in production at your own risk.

- For comparison, [RouteLLM](https://github.com/lm-sys/RouteLLM) reports ~85% routing accuracy on their benchmark with a BERT-based classifier (ours is keyword-based). We accept the lower accuracy for zero-dependency, instant routing.

+ **Node.js only (for now).** If your stack is Python-only, the proxy mode works fine. But the library API is JavaScript. A Python SDK is planned but does not exist.

- Run the benchmark yourself:
235
- ```bash
236
- node scripts/routing-benchmark-v2.js
237
- ```
222
+ **Not a replacement for LiteLLM.** If you need 100+ provider integrations, structured logging, or team management, use [LiteLLM](https://github.com/BerriAI/litellm). A3M Router does one thing: route queries to the cheapest capable model.

+ - You only use one provider
229
+ - Your workload is >80% expert-level queries
230
+ - You need enterprise SLAs
231
+ - You need 250+ provider integrations (use [Portkey](https://github.com/Portkey-AI/gateway))
232
+ - You are building a prototype with <100 queries/day
