# Apollo Cost Tuning

## Overview
Optimize Apollo.io costs through efficient credit usage, smart caching, deduplication, and usage monitoring.

## Apollo Pricing Model

| Feature | Credit Cost | Notes |
|---------|-------------|-------|
| People Search | 1 credit/result | Paginated results |
| Email Reveal | 1 credit/email | First reveal only |
| Person Enrichment | 1 credit/person | Fresh data |
| Org Enrichment | 1 credit/org | Company data |
| Sequence Emails | Included | Plan limits apply |
| Export | Varies | Bulk operations |

## Cost Reduction Strategies

### 1. Aggressive Caching

```typescript
// src/lib/apollo/cost-aware-cache.ts
import { LRUCache } from 'lru-cache';

interface CachedContact {
  data: any;
  fetchedAt: Date;
  creditCost: number;
}

class CostAwareCache {
  private cache: LRUCache<string, CachedContact>;
  private creditsSaved = 0;

  constructor() {
    this.cache = new LRUCache({
      max: 10000,
      ttl: 7 * 24 * 60 * 60 * 1000, // 7 days for contact data
    });
  }

  getContact(email: string): CachedContact | null {
    const cached = this.cache.get(email);
    if (cached) {
      this.creditsSaved++;
      console.log(`Cache hit for ${email}. Total credits saved: ${this.creditsSaved}`);
    }
    return cached || null;
  }

  setContact(email: string, data: any, creditCost: number = 1): void {
    this.cache.set(email, {
      data,
      fetchedAt: new Date(),
      creditCost,
    });
  }

  getStats() {
    return {
      entriesCount: this.cache.size,
      creditsSaved: this.creditsSaved,
      estimatedSavings: this.creditsSaved * 0.01, // Assuming $0.01/credit
    };
  }
}

export const costAwareCache = new CostAwareCache();
```

### 2. Deduplication

```typescript
// src/lib/apollo/deduplication.ts
class DeduplicationService {
  private seenEmails = new Set<string>();
  private seenDomains = new Set<string>();

  async enrichContactSafe(email: string): Promise<any> {
    // Check if already enriched
    if (this.seenEmails.has(email)) {
      return costAwareCache.getContact(email);
    }

    // Check cache first
    const cached = costAwareCache.getContact(email);
    if (cached) {
      return cached.data;
    }

    // Fetch and cache
    const result = await apollo.enrichPerson({ email });
    costAwareCache.setContact(email, result, 1);
    this.seenEmails.add(email);

    return result;
  }

  async enrichOrgSafe(domain: string): Promise<any> {
    const normalizedDomain = domain.toLowerCase().replace(/^www\./, '');

    if (this.seenDomains.has(normalizedDomain)) {
      return costAwareCache.getContact(`org:${normalizedDomain}`);
    }

    const cached = costAwareCache.getContact(`org:${normalizedDomain}`);
    if (cached) {
      return cached.data;
    }

    const result = await apollo.enrichOrganization(normalizedDomain);
    costAwareCache.setContact(`org:${normalizedDomain}`, result, 1);
    this.seenDomains.add(normalizedDomain);

    return result;
  }
}

export const dedup = new DeduplicationService();
