TLDR Tech / AI
Batch API is terrible for one agent. It might be great for a fleet
Batch API offers a 50% discount but adds latency, making it less suitable for single-agent use. For fleets of agents where multiple requests can be pooled, the batching approach becomes economically viable. Optimal usage involves routing slower, costlier models through batches, while employing faster models via synchronous paths, potentially managed by intelligent proxies like the developing LunaRoute.
