Two gears meshing — one large and one small — symbolizing routing work between a heavy frontier model and a lightweight worker model.

The Token Tax: Why Most AI Coding Costs Are Wasted on Work a $0.10 Model Could Do

Most tokens burned by an AI coding agent are spent on I/O and boilerplate, not reasoning. Here’s how to slash your bill by routing grunt work to a cheaper model while keeping your frontier model for the problems that actually need it.
