About ClawPipe

ClawPipe is the cost optimization layer for LLM applications. We built it because we watched teams ship real products with real users and then get blindsided by 5-figure monthly OpenAI bills — often for calls that should never have hit a frontier model in the first place.

What we believe

LLM costs are not a pricing problem — they are an engineering problem. Most teams pay 2–3x more than they need to, not because models are expensive, but because every request gets handled the same way: full-price, uncached, to the most capable model available.

We believe the right answer is a thin optimization layer that sits in front of every LLM call and decides, per request, whether to skip it, cache it, compress it, or route it to a cheaper model. That layer should be boring, measurable, and reproducible — not another AI abstraction.

What ClawPipe is

• An SDK you install in one line (npm install clawpipe-ai).
• A Cloudflare Workers gateway for multi-provider dispatch and analytics.
• A benchmark-backed claim: 57.3% cost reduction on a public 400-prompt dataset.
• Open-source and auditable. View the code on GitHub.

What ClawPipe is not

• A new LLM. We don't train models. We make your existing providers cheaper.
• A proxy. The SDK runs locally in your process — no extra network hop.
• A lock-in. Switch providers, switch back, or bypass ClawPipe entirely. Your code stays the same.
