One dashboard for every AI bill, every provider, every model — updated daily.
AICosts.ai pulls billing and usage data from 50+ AI providers — OpenAI, Anthropic, Google Gemini, AWS Bedrock, Azure OpenAI, Vertex AI, Cohere, Fireworks, Hugging Face, Pinecone, RunwayML, and more — normalizes it into one schema, and shows you total spend, per-provider breakdowns, and model-level trends on a single page. No code changes, no proxy, no request-path impact — ingestion is read-only and runs on a schedule.
How it works
Connect a provider
Paste a read-only API key or billing-export credential. Setup per provider is under 2 minutes. We never see prompts or completions.
We pull usage + invoices
Our background workers pull usage events (tokens, requests) and invoices from each connected provider on a 6-hour cycle. Historical backfill is one click.
Everything normalizes to one schema
Every event becomes (timestamp, provider, model, tokens_in, tokens_out, requests, cost_usd, environment). The dashboard rolls up daily, weekly, and monthly.
Export anywhere
CSV and JSON export for every view. Plug into your BI tool, finance workbook, or S3 bucket — we also support scheduled exports.
Use cases
Finance: month-end reconciliation
Replace the month-end spreadsheet that stitches together eight vendor invoices into a single signed-off AI-spend number.
Engineering leads: per-model cost visibility
See at a glance what Claude Opus cost this week vs Sonnet vs Haiku, and whether the mix is drifting.
Founders: runway-level AI spend awareness
Answer 'how much are we spending on AI this month' in one glance, not a chain of Slack DMs across three teams.
How AICosts.ai compares
| Feature | AICosts.ai | Other tools |
|---|---|---|
| Providers tracked | 50+ (OpenAI, Anthropic, Gemini, Bedrock, Azure, Vertex, plus 40+ more) | Typically 5–10 providers per tool |
| Inference-path impact | Zero — read-only ingestion from billing APIs | Proxy tools add latency to every request |
| Setup time per provider | < 2 minutes, read-only API key | Often requires SDK replacement or gateway rollout |
| Historical backfill | Included — pulls up to 90 days by default | Often starts from install date |
| Export formats | CSV + JSON on every view, scheduled S3 export | Varies, often CSV only |
Frequently Asked Questions
Does AICosts.ai sit in my inference path?+
No. We're a read-only aggregator — we pull billing and usage data from each vendor's API on a schedule. Your application code and production traffic are untouched. That's the entire design: we cannot slow down or fail your inference, because we're not in it.
How often does the dashboard refresh?+
Every 6 hours by default for active providers, hourly for ones with real-time usage APIs (OpenAI, Anthropic). You can trigger a manual sync from the dashboard anytime.
Can I see spend broken down by customer or feature?+
Yes, if the upstream provider's usage events carry the metadata. OpenAI's usage_metadata, Anthropic's custom headers, and Bedrock's request-tags all flow through. Any tag you pass at request time becomes a filter dimension in the dashboard.
What about providers without a billing API?+
For vendors that only offer monthly invoice PDFs or CSV downloads, we support scheduled email-forwarding ingestion and one-click CSV upload. The data lands in the same normalized schema.
