خطوة بخطوة

1. Choose the use case, such as the support assistant, and define usage: requests per day, tokens per request, and yearly growth.
2. Model the hosted option: price per unit (verify current), caching, and price-change scenarios.
3. Model self-hosting: GPUs, utilization, operations staff, evaluation, upgrades, and redundancy.
4. Find the break-even volume and compare control and data-handling benefits.
5. Planned mistake: compare per-token price with GPU rental only. Fix: add engineers, idle capacity, redundancy, and upgrades, which move break-even sharply.
6. Recommend with a trigger for revisiting and an exit plan.
