## What the story says

You.com runs open-source LLMs on Baseten's dedicated, multi-region deployments to handle the synthesis step of its Answer API, turning retrieved passages into cited, verified answers instead of routing each query to a frontier model.

Summary written by usedby from the source page, in English. The figures are those of Baseten and you.com, not ours.

> Compared with routing synthesis to a frontier model, You.com saw:

- **93.48%**: “93.48% accuracy on SimpleQA, 2.67-second p50 latency, and $5 per 1,000 calls.”

> We think open-weight models plus web search is a powerful alternative to routing everything through frontier model providers, at a fraction of the price and comparable quality for our developers.
