Cost and value governance

Connect AI spend to work, ownership, and outcomes

Attribute spend across people, teams, projects, models, Agents, and tasks, then connect it to operating value.

A low unit price does not guarantee a low total cost

Hidden idle capacity

Subscriptions renew without a clear view of activity or value.

Unowned API spend

API charges reach the ledger without a clear owner or purpose.

Unmeasured outcomes

High usage does not provide a consistent measure of time, quality, or outcome.

Establish the cost baseline before optimizing value

AIPay brings subscription, API, model-call, and administration costs into one view and incrementally connects them to tasks and outcomes.

Cost attribution

Break down spend by organization, project, model, Agent, and task.

Budget controls

Set quotas, thresholds, alerts, and approval rules.

Anomaly review

Identify spikes, idle capacity, duplication, and unowned spend.

Value analysis

Define time, quality, and outcome measures suited to the business.
