Requesty Auto Routing: let a router pick the right model for each Claude Code session

3 sources · Part of the 28 October 2026 edition

Requesty's beta Auto Routing lets you describe the kinds of work your team does and assign a model to each; it picks a model from the first message and keeps it for the whole session. There's a free tier on free models (200 requests a day); otherwise you pay the model price plus 5%. Any savings are the company's claim, not something we've tested. Spotted by @CompleteSkeptic.

Why it mattersNot every task needs the most expensive model. If your Claude Code bill is growing, routing simple jobs to cheaper models is the obvious lever; compare a week of costs before and after.
