The problem

Your provider dashboard shows usage, not waste.

AI bills depend on the model, prompt size, caching, and input versus output tokens, none of which finance can see. The waste, runaway scripts, cache misses, oversized models, leaked keys, and billing errors, shows up at month-end, after the money is gone.

How it works

Connect, audit, act.

We surface the recommendation; your team implements it. We never touch your code or your accounts.

  1. Step 01

    Connect

    Paste read-only admin API keys for Anthropic and OpenAI. Keys are encrypted. No SDK, no code changes.

  2. Step 02

    Audit

    The agent pulls usage and cost, reconciles it against the provider's billing, runs the detectors, and keeps syncing daily.

  3. Step 03

    Review

    Findings appear as violations and anomalies, each with a dollar impact and a plain explanation. You accept or dismiss each one.

  4. Step 04

    Act

    Accept a finding and it joins your Action Plan, ranked by dollar impact.

What it catches

Every finding, a dollar figure and a plain explanation.

Each one carries an impact, a severity, and an explanation a non-engineer can read. You accept or dismiss every finding.

01

Billing

The provider billed more than the rate card. Reconciliation works out what the bill should have been, token by token.

02

Model substitution

A workload running on a heavier, pricier model than the job actually needs.

03

Prompt caching

Prompts that should hit the cache and don't, cache writes paid for without matching reads, and low cache-hit rates.

04

Context inflation

Prompts growing across turns and inflating per-request cost. OpenAI today.

05

Workspace concentration

A single workspace or project taking an outsized share of spend, so the cost owner is obvious.

06

Anomalies

Off-hours and weekend bursts, untagged keys with no owner, and stale credentials still spending.

07

Advisory

Likely flat-fee seats the API can’t see, day-level spikes, and effective discount versus list. Context only.

08

Execution

Retry storms, agent loops, and duplicate calls. Coming soon.

Savings findings

Future spend you can cut.

Each savings finding is a recommendation that lowers what you spend on OpenAI and Anthropic from here on. Your team decides what to implement.

Ranked by dollar impact

Every finding carries a monthly dollar figure, so you start with the biggest cut.

Written for finance

A plain explanation of what drives the cost, by model and API key.

Acted on by your team

Accept a finding and it joins your Action Plan. We never change your code or your accounts.

The differentiator

The Action Plan your engineers can actually run.

From your accepted findings, we build a prioritized brief: each recommendation ranked by urgency, with the monthly dollar impact, the steps to take, and an owner.

Your team tracks each item from pending to complete and rates how accurate it was, which tunes the next plan. This is the report you hand to engineering.
