About Caveman
Summary
Caveman builds an optimization stack for AI agents that cuts inference and runtime costs without degrading agent quality. It monitors live agent workloads, identifies cost and performance inefficiencies, tests fixes, and rolls out only the improvements that pass validation. The product replaces manual prompt tuning, ad-hoc model-swapping, and guesswork that engineering teams currently do to control agent spend.
From the Y Combinator listing
