Optimize AI Costs
Scale AI coding without surprise bills. Kilo keeps costs visible with model routing, flexible provider options, and controls that preserve code quality.
Model choice
Premium models are worth it for hard work, but expensive for routine edits and checks.
Observability
Detailed usage analytics help you predict and balance costs. You can't optimize what you can't see.
Efficiency
Agent Manager, Codebase Indexing, and Memory Bank make your agent more efficient. Don't waste tokens repeating yourself to the agent.
Compare model pricing
Select two models to compare input, output, cache read, and cache write costs side by side.
Select models to compare
Choose two AI models from the dropdowns above to see a detailed comparison.
Route by task
Use stronger models for architecture and risky debugging. Use faster or open-weight models for bounded work.
Trim context
Send the files the agent needs, summarize durable findings, and reset long sessions when the work changes.
Set stop conditions
Pause on repeated failures, risky commands, unclear requirements, or spend thresholds.
Measure outcomes
Track merged code, resolved tickets, and useful artifacts rather than token volume alone.
