LLM API Costs Inflate Due to Uncompressed, Verbose Prompts

Developers and teams using LLM APIs (OpenAI, Anthropic) often send verbose, unoptimized prompts that consume more tokens than necessary, directly inflating API costs. This is especially compounding in multi-turn conversations where context windows grow with each message. There is no widely adopted drop-in layer that transparently compresses prompts before they reach the model without requiring prompt rewrites.
