LLM costs in production pipelines scale differently from anything else in your data infrastructure. A poorly architected pipeline that sends every event through GPT-4o can burn through thousands of dollars per day. A well-architected one running the same workload might cost a tenth of that — by routing each task to the model that's just capable enough for the job.

This post covers the cost architecture decisions that keep AI pipelines economically viable at scale.
