cascadeflow
Smart AI model cascading for cost optimization
Stars: 251
cascadeflow is an intelligent AI model cascading library that dynamically selects the optimal model for each query or tool call through speculative execution. It helps reduce API costs by 40-85% through intelligent model cascading and speculative execution with automatic per-query cost tracking. The tool is based on the research that shows 40-70% of queries don't require slow, expensive flagship models, and domain-specific smaller models often outperform large general-purpose models on specialized tasks. cascadeflow automatically escalates to flagship models for advanced reasoning when needed. It supports multiple providers, low latency, cost control, and transparency, and can be used for edge and local-hosted AI deployment.

Stop Bleeding Money on AI Calls. Cut Costs 30-65% in 3 Lines of Code.
40-70% of text prompts and 20-60% of agent calls don't need expensive flagship models. You're overpaying every single day.
cascadeflow fixes this with intelligent model cascading, available in Python and TypeScript.
pip install cascadeflownpm install @cascadeflow/corecascadeflow is an intelligent AI model cascading library that dynamically selects the optimal model for each query or tool call through speculative execution. It's based on the research that 40-70% of queries don't require slow, expensive flagship models, and domain-specific smaller models often outperform large general-purpose models on specialized tasks. For the remaining queries that need advanced reasoning, cascadeflow automatically escalates to flagship models if needed.
Use cascadeflow for:
- Cost Optimization. Reduce API costs by 40-85% through intelligent model cascading and speculative execution with automatic per-query cost tracking.
- Cost Control and Transparency. Built-in telemetry for query, model, and provider-level cost tracking with configurable budget limits and programmable spending caps.
-
Low Latency & Speed Optimization. Sub-2ms framework overhead with fast provider routing (Groq sub-50ms). Cascade simple queries to fast models while reserving expensive models for complex reasoning, achieving 2-10x latency reduction overall. (use preset
speed_optimized) -
Multi-Provider Flexibility. Unified API across
OpenAI,Anthropic,Groq,Ollama,vLLM,Together, andHugging Face, plus 17+ providers via the Vercel AI SDK with automatic provider detection and zero vendor lock-in. OptionalLiteLLMintegration for 100+ additional providers, plusLangChainintegration for LCEL chains and tools. - Edge & Local-Hosted AI Deployment. Use best of both worlds: handle most queries with local models (vLLM, Ollama), then automatically escalate complex queries to cloud providers only when needed.
âšī¸ Note: SLMs (under 10B parameters) are sufficiently powerful for 60-70% of agentic AI tasks. Research paper
cascadeflow uses speculative execution with quality validation:
- Speculatively executes small, fast models first - optimistic execution ($0.15-0.30/1M tokens)
- Validates quality of responses using configurable thresholds (completeness, confidence, correctness)
- Dynamically escalates to larger models only when quality validation fails ($1.25-3.00/1M tokens)
- Learns patterns to optimize future cascading decisions and domain specific routing
Zero configuration. Works with YOUR existing models (7 Providers currently supported).
In practice, 60-70% of queries are handled by small, efficient models (8-20x cost difference) without requiring escalation
Result: 40-85% cost reduction, 2-10x faster responses, zero quality loss.

If you already have an app using the OpenAI or Anthropic APIs and want the fastest integration, run the gateway and point your existing client at it:
python -m cascadeflow.server --mode auto --port 8084Docs: docs/guides/gateway.md
pip install cascadeflow[all]from cascadeflow import CascadeAgent, ModelConfig
# Define your cascade - try cheap model first, escalate if needed
agent = CascadeAgent(models=[
ModelConfig(name="gpt-4o-mini", provider="openai", cost=0.000375), # Draft model (~$0.375/1M tokens)
ModelConfig(name="gpt-5", provider="openai", cost=0.00562), # Verifier model (~$5.62/1M tokens)
])
# Run query - automatically routes to optimal model
result = await agent.run("What's the capital of France?")
print(f"Answer: {result.content}")
print(f"Model used: {result.model_used}")
print(f"Cost: ${result.total_cost:.6f}")đĄ Optional: Use ML-based Semantic Quality Validation
For advanced use cases, you can add ML-based semantic similarity checking to validate that responses align with queries.
Step 1: Install the optional ML package:
pip install cascadeflow[ml] # Adds semantic similarity via FastEmbed (~80MB model)Step 2: Use semantic quality validation:
from cascadeflow.quality.semantic import SemanticQualityChecker
# Initialize semantic checker (downloads model on first use)
checker = SemanticQualityChecker(
similarity_threshold=0.5, # Minimum similarity score (0-1)
toxicity_threshold=0.7 # Maximum toxicity score (0-1)
)
# Validate query-response alignment
query = "Explain Python decorators"
response = "Decorators are a way to modify functions using @syntax..."
result = checker.validate(query, response, check_toxicity=True)
print(f"Similarity: {result.similarity:.2%}")
print(f"Passed: {result.passed}")
print(f"Toxic: {result.is_toxic}")What you get:
- đ¯ Semantic similarity scoring (query â response alignment)
- đĄī¸ Optional toxicity detection
- đ Automatic model download and caching
- đ Fast inference (~100ms per check)
Full example: See semantic_quality_domain_detection.py
â ī¸ GPT-5 Note: GPT-5 streaming requires organization verification. Non-streaming works for all users. Verify here if needed (~15 min). Basic cascadeflow examples work without - GPT-5 is only called when needed (typically 20-30% of requests).

});
const result = await agent.run('What is TypeScript?');
console.log(`Model: ${result.modelUsed}`);
console.log(`Cost: $${result.totalCost}`);
console.log(`Saved: ${result.savingsPercentage}%`);đĄ Optional: ML-based Semantic Quality Validation
For advanced quality validation, enable ML-based semantic similarity checking to ensure responses align with queries.
Step 1: Install the optional ML packages:
npm install @cascadeflow/ml @xenova/transformersStep 2: Enable semantic validation in your cascade:
import { CascadeAgent, SemanticQualityChecker } from '@cascadeflow/core';
const agent = new CascadeAgent({
models: [
{ name: 'gpt-4o-mini', provider: 'openai', cost: 0.000375 },
{ name: 'gpt-4o', provider: 'openai', cost: 0.00625 },
],
quality: {
threshold: 0.40, // Traditional confidence threshold
requireMinimumTokens: 5, // Minimum response length
useSemanticValidation: true, // Enable ML validation
semanticThreshold: 0.5, // 50% minimum similarity
},
});
// Responses now validated for semantic alignment
const result = await agent.run('Explain TypeScript generics');Step 3: Or use semantic validation directly:
import { SemanticQualityChecker } from '@cascadeflow/core';
const checker = new SemanticQualityChecker();
if (await checker.isAvailable()) {
const result = await checker.checkSimilarity(
'What is TypeScript?',
'TypeScript is a typed superset of JavaScript.'
);
console.log(`Similarity: ${(result.similarity * 100).toFixed(1)}%`);
console.log(`Passed: ${result.passed}`);

- đ¯ Query-response semantic alignment detection
- đĢ Off-topic response filtering
- đĻ BGE-small-en-v1.5 embeddings (~40MB, auto-downloads)
- ⥠Fast CPU inference (~50-100ms with caching)
