# Anyone else think Claude Code and Codex are too slow? We hate it

**FAST** STRAIGHTFORWARD

**DEEP** COMPLEX

**REASON** HARDEST

### Right model.

Right moment.

Route straightforward work to fast models. Escalate only when the mission demands it.

A REALLY FAST CODING AGENT

Bullet routes, searches, and executes with one purpose: **keeping up with you.**

THE PROBLEM / LATENCY

We were burning hours waiting on agent runs. Not because the models were incapable. The machinery around them was simply heavier than it needed to be.

THE BULLET SYSTEM

Same model → tools → results pattern.

A tighter loop around it.

Route straightforward work to fast models. Escalate only when the mission demands it.

`auth middleware`

`src/router.ts`

`src/auth.ts`

Targeted search and file reads find relevant code without embedding the whole repo.

Independent tool calls execute in parallel. Duplicate calls and stuck loops are intercepted before they waste another second.

FIELD TEST / 001

Real prompt. Real repository.

No cinematic shortcuts.

FOUNDERS' NOTE

At our company, we were burning hours waiting on agent runs. We were building with Claude Code every day, watching capable models move through needlessly slow machinery.

So Bullet began as a passion project: route simple work faster, read only what matters, run independent tools together, and stop loops before they spiral.

We use it internally now. It saved us a headache. We thought it might save you one too.
