The Problem with Single-Model Lock-In
Organizations using only ChatGPT or only Claude face: vendor dependency, pricing power asymmetry, capability gaps (no model excels at everything), and business continuity risk if the vendor experiences outages or changes terms.
Benefits of Multi-Model Access
Multi-model strategies provide: best-model-for-task flexibility, cost optimization through intelligent routing, vendor negotiation leverage, failover redundancy, and access to specialized models for specific languages, domains, or tasks.
Governance Challenges
Multi-model access without governance is chaos. Organizations need: unified cost tracking across providers, consistent security policies regardless of model, centralized audit logging, and standardized user experience across models.
Implementation
Deploy a multi-model platform that provides a single interface, unified governance, normalized billing, and intelligent routing. This gives users the benefit of model diversity while giving IT the benefit of centralized control.
