## Description

This MCP server provides a financial modeling engine to calculate the economic viability of compressing AI models. It allows agents to weigh inference savings against performance degradation and implementation overhead. Use `analyze_compression_roi` to determine net cost savings and ROI, `calculate_maintenance_impact` to estimate long-term re-optimization costs, and `evaluate_deployment_flexibility` to quantify the value of moving models to edge or mobile hardware. Finally, use `summarize_compression_strategy` to get a consolidated economic verdict and risk profile.

## Tools

### analyze_compression_roi
Calculates the primary economic viability of a specific compression attempt

### calculate_maintenance_impact
Estimates the long-term costs associated with keeping a compressed model functional

### evaluate_deployment_flexibility
Quantifies the value of being able to move a model from cloud to edge/mobile environments

### summarize_compression_strategy
Provides a consolidated view of a compression project including performance and economic metrics

## Prompt Examples

**Prompt:** 
```
What is the ROI if I use quantization to reduce inference costs by 40% with a 2% performance loss, costing $5000 to implement, for a model that costs $0.01 per inference at 10 million inferences per year?
```

**Response:** 
```
The net cost savings for this quantization project is $395,000 with an ROI of 7,900%.
```

**Prompt:** 
```
Calculate the maintenance cost for a model that needs re-compression every 6 months, with each cycle costing $2000, for 1 million annual inferences.
```

**Response:** 
```
The annual maintenance cost is $4,000, and the total five-year maintenance cost is $20,000.
```

**Prompt:** 
```
Summarize a strategy where the ROI analysis shows $100k savings, maintenance costs are $5k, and deployment flexibility adds $20k in value.
```

**Response:** 
```
The total project value is $115,000, and the economic verdict is Highly Profitable.
```

## Frequently Asked Questions

**How do I calculate the ROI of a pruning technique?**
You can use the `analyze_compression_roi` tool. Provide the performance loss, the reduction in inference cost, the development cost, and the annual inference volume to get a detailed ROI analysis.

**Does this tool account for long-term maintenance?**
Yes, the `calculate_maintenance_impact` tool estimates the recurring costs of re-compression cycles needed to keep models functional over time.

**Can I evaluate moving a model to mobile devices?**
Yes, use `evaluate_deployment_flexibility` by specifying 'mobile' as the target hardware tier to quantify the economic benefit of expanding your market reach.
