IQ Routing

Become a design partner.

Three months of IQ Routing free, with the router tuned around your traffic instead of somebody else’s. Ten slots, all open.

What you get

The design-partner package is built so a head of engineering can sign inside a week. The terms are zero platform fee, full provider mix live in thirty seconds, plus a direct line to the founder for the full three months.

  • Three months of IQ Routing free across every current capability primitive plus every new feature that ships during the trial.
  • A live capability editor and a session dashboard wired to your real agent traffic from day one.
  • Weekly telemetry posted directly to your dashboard covering top step classes, top providers, prefix-cache hit rate, thinking-token burn, latency percentiles, cost per session, and total spend.
  • A direct line to the founder in a shared Slack channel for routing tweaks, incident triage, and product road map input.
  • One onboarding call to set up the partnership and get your traffic flowing.
  • Early access to new features and capabilities behind a feature flag before the public beta.

What we ask

The partner side is light by design. No recurring calls, no standing meetings. Just the minimum signal we need to tune routing against your real traffic and produce a credible case study at the end.

  • Written feedback at the end of the three-month trial covering top wins, top frustrations, and feature requests.
  • Consent to share anonymised usage data for a case study. Team and company name are optional.
  • Willingness to be quoted on the landing page after the case study lands.
  • Willingness to test pre-release builds behind a feature flag.

Weekly telemetry

Every week your dashboard updates with a full rollup of the prior seven days across cost, latency, routing, and thinking-budget burn. The numbers are auto-generated from the gateway session tables so they match what your CFO sees on the invoice. The schema below is the exact shape of the JSON payload that backs the dashboard.

An illustrative example, not a customer result

What follows is a modelled example of the shape a partnership takes, built from the same routing arithmetic the home page prices step by step, because somebody deciding whether to apply should be able to see the shape of the thing before they talk to us. Read it as a model of what the mechanism does at a given spend level rather than as a result somebody achieved. Three months into your trial, the numbers on your own dashboard replace it. If that becomes a case study, your team and company name stay optional.

Illustrative example. Not a customer, not a measured result.

Hypothetical fintech startup, Series B, twelve engineers

$84K of monthly agent spend reduced to $27K with IQ Routing, a 68 percent cut, across a three-month pilot.

Every figure in this box is modelled rather than observed. There is no such company, there was no such pilot, and no customer has run this. The 68 percent also sits a little above the best result we have actually measured, which is 66 percent against a top-tier reasoning baseline, so read it as the optimistic end of the model rather than a typical outcome. The measured numbers, including the baseline where routing costs more rather than less, are on the savings methodology page.

All ten slots are open, and the first one carries the most influence over what gets built. Drop us an email and we will get your onboarding call on the calendar within the week.
