Why this model

For this workload — 10M tokens a month, 90% of them input — it comes to about $1.4 a month, the lowest of the models suggested here. Its 1M-token context window holds long inputs in a single call, which matters for this kind of work.

Implementation tips

  1. 1

    Define your policy taxonomy as an enum in the system prompt with 1–2 example violations per category — precise policy definitions eliminate the ambiguity that causes inconsistent enforcement across the model's outputs.

  2. 2

    Use a tiered confidence approach: high-confidence violations are actioned automatically, medium-confidence items are queued for human review, and low-confidence items pass — this human-in-the-loop design maintains precision at scale.

  3. 3

    Run a monthly calibration session: sample 200 decisions, have human reviewers re-score them, and update your system prompt with patterns where the model consistently disagrees with human judgment.
