The Variants API returns N distinct, catalog-grounded output variants per request. Every item in every variant resolves against your catalog, and every response carries a receipt.
What it is
Riley Routes is a business-to-business API: a customer sends one request and receives several genuinely different, catalog-grounded options for their end user, plus a verifiable usage report.
Ask for five options and get five options, not five paraphrases of one idea.
Every identifier in every variant resolves against your catalog. If an item cannot be verified, the option is withheld rather than invented. Wrong data is worse than no data.
Every response ships with a per-generation receipt, and a baseline report measures the input-token efficiency ratio on your workload, not asserted from ours.
Measured at 2.6 to 2.8x input-token efficiency versus N independent calls in Riley Routes reference measurements. Separately, reference measurements show approximately 25 to 28 percent workload cost reduction per comparison set (Anthropic basis: 27.5 percent, rate-clean; Gemini basis: 24.82 percent per-generation average and 24.61 percent across 60 matched pairs).
Efficiency figures apply to stacks without shared-prompt multi-sampling and to workloads without cacheable shared prefixes. Your baseline report measures your own case.
The Variants API is not specific to any industry. It works wherever a product needs to offer several genuinely different options drawn from a catalog you already own.

Live walkthroughs of the demos are available on request during the private beta.
The Variants API is in private beta. Tell us what you are building, and if there is a fit we will reach out to set up a short intro call.
Thanks, your request is in. The private beta is white-glove and we review every request personally. If there is a fit, you will hear from us within a few business days.
