Case Study: You.com cuts inference costs by 30% with Baseten

You.com cuts costs by 30% with Baseten

You.com, a search platform, wanted to enhance its API portfolio with a synthesized answer endpoint but found the cost of using frontier AI models to be prohibitive. They turned to Baseten and its inference platform to find a more economically viable solution for powering this new Answer API.

Baseten provided a solution by serving a range of open-source models on dedicated, multi-region infrastructure. This allowed You.com to achieve frontier-level answer quality at a fraction of the cost. The results included a 30% reduction in cost per call and accuracy on par with closed-source models, all while meeting strict enterprise compliance requirements.
