Summary

Baseten Switch is a local Mac application designed to facilitate the seamless integration and comparison of various open and closed machine learning models within popular coding harnesses like Claude Code and Codex. Written in Go, this app allows users to dynamically route traffic between native closed models and open models from Baseten, providing a flexible way to optimize performance, cost, and reliability. By enabling easy toggling between models via a menubar icon, Baseten Switch eliminates the need for reconfiguring endpoints or restarting sessions, thus simplifying the process of testing different models within the same harness environment. Users can track detailed performance and cost metrics, such as tokens per second and total tokens generated, to make informed decisions about their model usage. Additionally, Baseten Switch ensures data privacy by routing requests through local routers to Baseten's inference endpoints, without the company accessing user prompts or metrics directly.
