It’s also unclear which models provide the highest quality on your task. This results in lots of manual signups, testing different models, bespoke benchmarking, etc. It’s overwhelming, and the final solution is almost always sub-optimal.\n\n![](https://t9015538723.p.clickup-attachments.com/t9015538723/65677e25-4ec6-4c1a-b235-56ff1fee6552/splash3.png)\n\nMany people give up and just use the largest models for everything. However, you really don't need GPT4 to summarize simple documents. Llama 8B is more than capable and is **15 times faster** and **100 times cheaper**. LLM apps are currently _much_ slower and more expensive than needed 💵🔥⏱️, and also often underperform in output quality because of poorly selected models 📉 (Claude Opus vs. GPT4 vs. Gemni etc.) for your specific prompts.\n\n**🤩 Not Anymore**\n\nUnify automatically routes each prompt to the most suitable model based on your preferences for quality, speed, and cost. Simply tune these three dials and let Unify do all the hard work.\n\n![uploaded image](/media/?type=post\u0026id=81027\u0026key=user_uploads/949841/fa900ddd-6849-408f-9a6c-1ad5dcfb0872)\n\nYour \"easy\" prompts will go to the fastest and cheapest models, and only the \"hard\" prompts will go to the most appropriate heavy lifters, like GPT-4o, Opus, and Gemini. You focus on building your LLM app, and we'll focus on providing the best models, with the fastest providers, at the lowest cost ⚡\n\n![uploaded image](/media/?type=post\u0026id=81027\u0026key=user_uploads/949841/b59ee67a-6566-4728-b146-57b102cf3151)\n\nWatch our [explainer video](https://youtu.be/15wgxK1Cw0E?si=5G04-7tGRKPyxiNa) to learn more about the solution at a high level.\n\n**What Unify Offers ✨**\n\n* **⚙️ Control**: Choose which models and providers to route to and adjust three sliders: quality, cost, and latency.\n* 📈 **Self Improvement**: Unify automatically improves your LLM application over time as new models and providers emerge.\n* 📊 **Observability**: [Compare all models and providers](https://console.unify.ai/dashboard) and see which are best for your needs.\n* ⚖️ **Impartiality**: Unify treats all models and providers equally, ensuring unbiased quality, cost, and speed [benchmarks](https://console.unify.ai/dashboard).\n* 🔑 **Convenience**: With a single API key, [access all models and providers](https://unify.ai/docs/api/first_request.html) behind a single endpoint, queryable individually or via the router.\n* 🧑‍💻 **Focus**: Don't stress about updating models and providers; Unify handles it for you so you can focus on building great LLM products.\n\n**Getting Started 🛠️**\n\n[Sign up](https://console.unify.ai/), select your [router](https://unify.ai/chat?default=true), then `pip install unifyai` and you're ready to go!\n\n```\nfrom unify import Unify\nunify = Unify(\n    api_key=\"UNIFY_KEY\",\n    endpoint=\"router@q:1\",\n)\nresponse = unify.generate(user_prompt=\"Hello there\")\n```\n\n🙏 **Our Ask**\n\nGive Unify a try, and let us know what you think!
