AWS has published a new architecture for cost-optimized document processing that pairs Amazon Nova 2 Lite with Claude. The workflow uses model selection to handle document tasks without sending every step to the most expensive model.
The pattern reflects a growing enterprise AI strategy: use smaller or cheaper models where they are good enough, then escalate to stronger systems for harder cases. That can reduce cost while preserving accuracy where it matters.
For teams processing large document volumes, the post is a practical example of multi-model design becoming a default production pattern.
