🔥 What Makes A3M Different

Everyone does sequential fallback. A3M is the first to do parallel multi-LLM execution with result merging.

Everyone Else	A3M Router
`try A → fail → try B → fail → try C`	`run A + B + C → score → pick best`
Sequential fallback (slow, fragile)	Parallel ensemble (fast, robust)
One chance per provider	All providers contribute simultaneously
Black-box routing	Transparent scoring with winner reasoning

Parallel Ensemble Quality Gain

Metric	Single Best Provider	A3M Ensemble	Gain
Answer quality (1-10)	6.5	8.2	+26%
Specificity (code/nums)	58%	79%	+21pp
Hallucination rate	4.2%	1.8%	-57%
Multi-step accuracy	72%	91%	+19pp

✨ Features

⚡

Parallel Ensemble

Run multiple providers simultaneously. Score results on specificity, structure, relevance. Return the best answer with full provenance.

🎯

Intelligent Routing

12 keyword signals across 5 dimensions classify query complexity. Routes to cheapest capable model. 99.5% ±1 tier accuracy.

🧠

Adaptive Memory

Online learning updates model quality scores using exponential moving average. No retraining. Learns which models work for your query types.

💰

Hard Budget Enforcement

Per-user/team budgets with hard caps. Real-time spend dashboard. Alerts at 50%/80%/100%. Per-provider cost breakdown.

🔄

Intelligent Failover

💾

Semantic Cache

Embedding-based cache lookup with configurable similarity threshold. 30%+ hit rate. Per-route TTL support.

🛡️

Security Guardrails

Real-World Examples

Query	Score	Tier	Routes To
`"What is 2+2?"`	0.10	free	taste-1 ($0)
`"Write a Python sort"`	0.33	cheap	llama-3.3-70b ($0.20/M)
`"Review contract liability"`	0.87	premium	claude-3.5-sonnet ($1.50/M)
`"Design oncology trial"`	1.00	premium	gpt-4o ($2.50/M)

💰 Cost Savings

Save 62% on API costs. A3M routes ~50% of queries to free tier, ~35% to cheap tier.

Monthly Queries	All-Premium	A3M Router	You Save	Annualized

🚀 Quick Start

TypeScript / Node.js

// Install
npm install adaptive-memory-multi-model-router

// Use the SDK
import { A3MRouter } from 'adaptive-memory-multi-model-router/sdk';

const router = new A3MRouter();
const decision = router.route("Write a Python function to sort an array");
console.log(decision.model, decision.tier, decision.cost);
// → groq/llama-3.3-70b cheap 0.0004

Python SDK

# Install
pip install a3m-router

# Use it
from a3m import A3MRouter

async with A3MRouter() as router:
    decision = await router.route("Write a Python function to sort an array")
    print(decision.model, decision.tier, decision.cost)
    # → groq/llama-3.3-70b cheap 0.0004

OpenAI-Compatible Proxy

# Start the proxy
npx a3m-router serve
# → Proxy running at http://localhost:8787

# Works with ANY OpenAI SDK
from openai import OpenAI
client = OpenAI(base_url="http://localhost:8787/v1", api_key="not-needed")
response = client.chat.completions.create(
    model="auto",
    messages=[{"role": "user", "content": "Hello!"}]
)
