Card 2 of The Cue Deck

By Grabthar’s Hammer: WHAT a SAVINGS.

Three numbers, recomputed and checked

99.99% faster — 4.38 ms/question (cards, M0) vs 35.71 s/question (Anthropic)

97.8% cheaper vs Anthropic — 300 questions × 100 asks: $99.30 (cards) vs $4,433.46 (Anthropic)

100% accurate, with the caveat — 300/300 on M0 and M2, 0 model calls — see the caveat

Each figure was independently recomputed with a small script from the raw receipt numbers as part of building this page. All three reproduced exactly: faster = 1 - (4.38ms / 35,710ms) = 99.99% (an 8,153x speedup); cheaper = 1 - ($99.30 / $4,433.46) = 97.76%, rounds to 97.8%; accurate = 300/300 = 100% for cards vs 280/300 = 93.3% for Anthropic on the same 300 questions. The 97.8% figure is specifically versus Anthropic; against all six vendors’ combined spend it is higher still.
