RFA Labs · inference & agentic AI

Inference,
optimized.

We design and build complex agentic AI systems — and make frontier models dramatically cheaper to run. Deep specialists in inference and test-time-compute optimization, we cut the bill while holding quality to a bar you set.

The Optimizer · flagship

Cut the cost of frontier AI without giving up the quality.

Our flagship product sits in front of your existing models and pays for itself out of the savings it measures. The productized form of one idea: spend exactly the compute a task needs, and not a token more.

route

Quality-bounded routing

Each request goes to the cheapest model that still clears your quality bar — economy, standard, or frontier — measured against a declared baseline.

prune

Test-time-compute pruning

Verify-and-stop techniques spend extra reasoning only where it changes the answer, and stop the moment the work is good enough.

meter

Paid from measured savings

Every call is metered against your counterfactual. You pay a share of the savings we can prove. If it doesn’t save, it doesn’t cost.

swap

Drop-in, provider-agnostic

A base-URL swap puts the Optimizer in the path — no rewrite — with an optimization-memory layer that sharpens on your traffic over time.

Custom AI workflows

Complex agentic systems, designed and built for your business.

Beyond the product, we build bespoke agentic systems end to end — with the same optimization discipline baked in from the first commit.

01 / design

Design

We map your problem to an agent topology that fits it — tools, memory, gates, human checkpoints where they matter.

02 / build

Build

Systems that do real work: clone the repo, run the tests, open the PR. Production agents, not demos.

03 / optimize

Optimize

Every workflow ships instrumented and cost-optimized with the same techniques behind the Optimizer.

Where the experience comes from

Engineers who’ve built where getting it wrong wasn’t an option.

Our engineers have plied their trade inside large, demanding organizations — shipping systems where reliability, scale, and cost were never optional. We bring that bar to agentic AI.
