> Tokenless fans out your request to a group of models and watches them think. Once a model is clearly on track
By the time the model is "on track", it will have already received the input tokens. To a first approximation, input tokens are often the bulk of the cost for many queries, and this would increase the cost for such queries. It seems like it'd only decrease costs for prompts where you feed a relatively small amount of input into the model first and can tell whether the model is "on track" before it starts reading larger amounts of input data.
