Cost Transparency
AI costs are multi-dimensional — tokens, model calls, upstream API fees, caching — and no single vendor provides cross-platform visibility. Without budget controls, cost attribution, and forecasting, organizations can’t calculate ROI, prevent runaway spend, or make informed decisions about what to build versus buy.
- Multi-dimensional cost visibility across API calls, AI tokens, model usage, and caching
- Budget controls, thresholds, and alerts to prevent runaway costs
- Cost attribution to teams, projects, and specific capabilities
- Forecasting and trend analysis for capacity planning
- Must cover all 3rd-party API spend, not just AI services
