AI Agent Token Optimizer & Circuit Breaker
A middleware tool that sits between AI dev agents and LLM APIs to predict, monitor, and cap token usage. It acts as a 'circuit breaker' to pause agents if they enter infinite loops or exceed a pre-defined budget for a specific feature spec.
Why this matters
A middleware tool that sits between AI dev agents and LLM APIs to predict, monitor, and cap token usage. It acts as a 'circuit breaker' to pause agents if they enter infinite loops or exceed a pre-defined budget for a specific feature spec.
- · Built for Solo developers and engineering managers using multi-agent dev tools who are anxious about API bill shock..
- · Most likely monetization: SaaS subscription (tiered by volume of tokens monitored).
