AI Cost Visibility
The inability to attribute AI infrastructure costs to specific product features, business units, or customer cohorts. Most organizations track aggregate cloud spend but cannot answer the question: what does a single AI interaction cost us?
The Pain Point
Your CFO asks how much your AI features cost per customer. Nobody can answer. API bills arrive as a lump sum. Engineering says it is complicated. Finance sees a line item growing 40% quarter over quarter with no unit economics attached.
