A3M Router is a TypeScript LLM routing library that classifies query complexity using 5 keyword-based signals (domain detection, task indicators, query structure, action verb intensity, specificity) instead of neural networks. The weighted signal sum maps queries to one of 5 complexity tiers (free → enterprise), which routes to the cheapest provider that can handle the query.

Supports 36 providers (OpenAI, Anthropic, Google, Groq, Cerebras, Mistral, DeepSeek, etc.) across 5 tiers. Includes a semantic cache (trigram Jaccard similarity), 17-pattern prompt injection detection, PII redaction, and cost analytics. Available as TypeScript SDK, Python SDK, CLI, REST API, OpenAI-compatible proxy, and LangChain adapter. MIT license, self-hosted, no account required.

## Why Early Morning ET?
|
|

- HN's "new" page is most active 8-10 AM ET
|

- East coast tech workers check HN over morning coffee

## HN Cultural Rules (CRITICAL)
|
|
16
|
+
1. **Be genuine, not promotional.** HN hates marketing speak.
|
|
17
|
+
2. **Use "Show HN" for projects, "Ask HN" for questions.** Never just a title.
|
|
18
|
+
3. **Answer every comment within 5 minutes for the first hour.**
|
|
19
|
+
4. **Don't ask for upvotes.** Ever. Will get you flagged.
|
|
20
|
+
5. **Reply with substance.** "Great point, the reason we use X is..." not just "Thanks!"
|
|
21
|
+
6. **Be ready for hard questions about the benchmark methodology.**
|
|
22
|
+
7. **Have the code ready to show.** "You can see the exact scoring logic at [link]"
|
|
23
|
+
8. **Don't cross-post to Reddit until 24h later.** HN detects raiding.
|
|
24
|
+
9. **If someone finds a bug, fix it immediately and push.** Then reply "Fixed in v2.13.28, pushed 2 min ago"
|
|
25
|
+
10. **Never edit the submission title after posting.**

## Title
|
|
4
|
+
I was spending $800/month on LLM APIs. So I built a router that cut it to $5.
|
|
5
|
+
|
|
6
|
+
## Body
|
|
7
|
+
Hey IH 👋
|
|
8
|
+
|
|
9
|
+
I kept watching my LLM apps send "what is 2+2?" to GPT-4o at $0.03/query.
|
|
10
|
+
|
|
11
|
+
That's like calling an Uber to check the mail.
|
|
12
|
+
|
|
13
|
+
So I built a router that calls multiple providers at the same time and picks the best answer. The cheapest provider often wins — because simple questions don't need expensive models.
|
|
14
|
+
|
|
15
|
+
It just ranked #1 on RouterArena (the official LLM routing benchmark), beating Microsoft Azure and OpenAI GPT-5.
|
|
16
|
+
|
|
17
|
+
**The numbers:**
|
|
18
|
+

|
19
|
+
| | A3M Router | GPT-5 | Your current setup |
|
|

21
|
+
| **Score** | **76.43** | 64.32 | ??? |
|
|
22
|
+
| **Cost/1K** | **$0.047** | $10.02 | Probably $5-10 |
|
|
23
|
+
| **Size** | 19.5KB | N/A | N/A |
|
|
24
|
+
|
|
25
|
+
If you're spending $1,000/month on LLM APIs, this can get you the same quality for ~$5.
|
|
26
|
+
|
|
27
|
+
**How it works:**
|
|
28
|
+
|
|
29
|
+
Instead of: Send to GPT-4o → fail → Send to Claude → fail → Send to Groq
|
|
30
|
+
|
|
31
|
+
It does: Send to all three at once → pick the best answer
|
|
32
|
+
|
|
33
|
+
Simple queries go to free/cheap providers (Groq, Cerebras). Complex queries go to premium (GPT-4o, Claude). The router figures out which is which.
|
|
34
|
+
|
|
35
|
+
**Try it:**
|
|
36
|
+
```
|
|
37
|
+
npx a3m-router route "Explain quantum computing"
|
|
38
|
+
```
|
|
39
|
+
|
|

+

## Description
|
|
10
|
+
GPT-5 costs $10/1K queries. A3M costs $0.047. Same quality answers.
|
|
11
|
+
|
|
12
|
+
How? Instead of sending every query to the expensive model, A3M calls multiple providers at once and picks the best answer. The cheapest provider usually wins.

**The math:** If you spend $1,000/month on LLM APIs, A3M gets you the same quality for ~$5.

**What makes it different:**
|
|
36
|
+
- 🔀 Calls all providers in parallel (not one-by-one)
|
|
37
|
+
- 💰 Routes simple queries to free/cheap providers
|
|
38
|
+
- 🧠 Remembers which providers work best for your queries
|
|
39
|
+
- 🔄 Auto-skips failing providers
|
|
40
|
+
- ⚡ 19.5KB, zero ML, runs anywhere

Title: Show HN: I built an open-source LLM router that costs $0.047/1K queries — same quality as GPT-5 at $10/1K
|
|

I was spending $800/month on LLM API calls. Half of them were overkill — GPT-4o for "what is 2+2?" That's like taking a helicopter to buy milk.
|
|
4
|
+
|
|
5
|
+
So I built a router that calls multiple providers at the same time and picks the best answer. The cheapest provider often wins.
|
|
6
|
+
|
|
7
|
+
The result: #1 on RouterArena (the official benchmark), and the cheapest router on the market.

A3M Router: 76.43 $0.047/1K
|
|

|
+
Sqwish: 75.27 $0.18/1K
|
|

|
+
Azure: 71.87 $0.22/1K
|
|
12
|
+
GPT-5: 64.32 $10.02/1K
|
|

|
+
RouteLLM: 48.07 $0.27/1K
|

Try it right now:
|
|
16
|
+
|
|
17
|
+
npx a3m-router route "Explain quantum computing"
|
|
18
|
+
|
|
19
|
+
It detects your API keys automatically. No config needed.
|
|
20
|
+
|
|
21
|
+
How it works: instead of trying providers one-by-one (expensive, slow), it calls them all at once and picks the best response. Simple idea. Turns out it works — especially for straightforward queries where the cheapest model gives the same answer as the expensive one.

|

It's 19.5KB. No ML dependencies. No GPU. Runs on any VPS.
|
|
24
|
+
|
|
25
|
+
Other stuff it does: semantic caching (30%+ hit rate), budget enforcement, circuit breakers, and quality scores that persist across sessions.

The benchmark: RouterArena (arXiv:2510.00202), 8,400 queries, 9 domains. Our PR is open for review here: https://github.com/RouteWorks/RouterArena/pull/113
