Five useful starting points
Choose a tool, refine your writing workflow, or plan what it will cost to run.
Compare coding workflows, pricing and tradeoffs. Use the decision matrix and five-day trial plan to choose a setup for your project.
Choose a writing tool for each stage of your workflow, with a decision framework, pricing notes and a comparison checklist.
Separate system instructions from user requests. Includes prompt templates for ChatGPT, Claude and Gemini, with production checks.
Estimate input and output tokens, apply model rates, and account for retries before you commit to a monthly budget.
Plan a repeatable content workflow from brief to publication, with clear responsibilities, draft reviews and fact checking.

A practical framework for LLM feature unit economics in SaaS — cost per successful action, gross margin impact, pricing guardrails, and when to kill a feature.
A practical playbook for LLM rate limits: detect 429s, exponential backoff with jitter, budgets, queues, and user-facing degradation — without magical retry loops.
Why local tokenizers disagree with vendor usage fields, when the gap is harmless, and how to document the error band for budgeting and CI.
Build a pricing worksheet for OpenRouter versus direct OpenAI (or any gateway vs direct) — list price, routing fees, retries, and operational tradeoffs.
Defensive playbook for prompt injection on customer-facing bots: trust boundaries, tool permissions, input isolation, monitoring, and incident response — no exploit recipes.
Estimate token and dollar cost for RAG features: chunk sizes, top-k, system overhead, retries, and how context windows blow monthly bills.
A practical playbook to shrink LLM prompts — cut noise, structure context, compress examples — while keeping the behaviors you actually need.
Design a retry budget for LLM-backed features — how many retries, when to fail open/closed, and how retries show up in token spend.

What tokens are, how counting differs by model family, why estimators disagree, and how to budget LLM usage without treating vendor docs as mythology.
How to write system prompts for research agents: roles, tool use, citation rules, stop conditions, and anti-hallucination constraints that hold up in production.
A practical playbook for capping LLM spend: token budgets, model routing, caching, retry policy, and monthly forecasting without a finance PhD.
A concrete pipeline for briefs → drafts → edits → publish using LLMs as assistants, with human gates where quality and liability live.
