Why batching sells

Batched prompts turn spiky invoices into predictable spend. Predictability makes finance move faster on approvals.

Quick batching formula

  1. Group lookalikes - Schedule analytics updates, nightly summaries, or tagging jobs together.
  2. Reuse context - Send system instructions once per batch instead of per request.
  3. Measure - Track before-and-after token spend inside the LLM cost calculator.

Talking points for the room

  • Batching five similar prompts can shave 20%+ off GPT-4.1 costs with zero quality loss.
  • Predictable demand helps secure better provider discounts.
  • LLM Cost Optimizer flags workflows still running one-by-one so you can batch them next.
