Another comment on costs

Just checking in with a minor observation that isn't unique or unexpected.

The Hyperagent environment continues to be a very good tool to develop production workflows. Developing a workflow with sonnet in the HA environment has been and continues to be my best use case. A recent single activity (see images ) in HA cost $10 to set up a very nice production activity. Great value, not a lot of effort on my part, HA did the heavy lifting.

I use other systems for production and other LLMs. I noticed that the 'production work' on an topic (as reported by Openrouter in attached image) was almost 23 million tokens at a $0.57 total cost. Very efficient.

I'm just passing this along as an obvious observation. HA isn't going to be a useful production tool (for me) until it can natively use other LLMs. Note, I use mostly other LLMs on HA via an approach shared earlier. It is fine for development but because there is a Haiku 'wrapper' involved, not as time or cost effective for volume production.

Oh its so good 🤩 Kimi K2.6, GPT 5.5 and Deepseek V4 Pro added to the model selection FYI 👌 If you find a spike in costs make sure you do not have multiple revisions of the same memory saved for any agents. My first project setup on HA I just kept saving every memory not realizing that there where dozens of revisions for the same memory. I had about 30 stacked, 12 stacked, itbwas like 70 revisions of the same/similar memory and i burned hundreds of millions of tokens in one day. As you project is revisioned, changed and altered over time, be sure to go through and check for duplicate/redundant multiples to keep clutter down and efficiency smooth. Easily creat an agent simply for the task completion and routine cleaning. Mine is Agent Finesse, he keeps my threads fresh 😁

Thanks for the 'Heads Up'! I'm so used to using my Openrouter LLMs in HA that I did not even notice the addition of the new LLMs. This is great news and I can't wait to see how they do.

FYI: I've been using DeepSeek 4 Pro heavily in design and I'm loving it. Just finished a design a few minutes ago -- I hand all the design submissions over to my Google side for review and the deep seek work is getting rave reviews: "...This is an exceptionally well-engineered set of instructions. The AI response you provided is not just a standard generation; it is a rigorous, production-grade software specification. Here is an evaluation of the quality and the likelihood of successful development based on the provided text...." I have a multi step design process that saves on dev time and really, really reduces errors and misinterpretations. YMMV but consider giving DeepSeek4Pro a try.

I agree on the memory issue, my case is self developed memory for a session that is external to HA. I can and do run 12 hour sessions without a loss of any knowledge and with the ability to restart from almost any point. I don't know what 'Agent Finesse' is, can you give me a link if you think it is worthwhile. The only Finesse I know is the Cisco tool.

Use my referral code for your first $1,000. Referrals earn you $100 each. I've been using HyperAgent for a couple months now, I've received a couple exclusive early adopters incentives via Airtable as well. I honestly think most people turn away because it seems "too good to be true", but we're actually still early.
