All your AI spend. One place. Fully in your control
AI spend management is how a business keeps track of what it pays AI providers like OpenAI and Anthropic. Every team is using AI, & every team is adding to the bill. AI spend management gives you the whole picture in one place, so you stop chasing numbers and start making decisions.
Centralize
One AI provider is easy to track. Five is not. Every new team adds another account, another API key and another login. Bring every provider, account & team into one view, and see the full picture without chasing five dashboards.
AI spend doesn’t behave like software spend
Software is predictable: a fixed price, a renewal date you can plan around. AI is neither — and most businesses are finding out on invoice day.
It grows with every use
There’s no fixed price. A busy week or a new project can double the bill before anyone notices
It spreads across business
Every team sets up its own AI accounts. Nobody has the full list, and nobody owns the total
It can’t be budgeted in old way
No contract, no renewal date. Last month’s bill tells you almost nothing about this month’s
It’s invisible in your accounts
Your books show one payment per provider. But not who spent it, on what, or whether it paid off
AI is too important to cut — and too unpredictable to leave unmanaged
The fastest-growing line in your budget has no controls
AI arrived without the visibility, forecasting and guardrails businesses spent a decade building for software

Where Your AI Spend Hides
Ask most finance teams what they spend on AI and you’ll get a number. It’s almost always too low. The gap isn’t because anyone is hiding anything. AI never arrives as a single purchase that someone signs off on. It shows up in pieces: a seat here, an add-on there, a usage charge somewhere else. […]
Shadow AI: The New Shadow IT Hiding in Your Clients’ Books
It’s month-end, and you’re working through a client’s card feed. Between the fuel and the office supplies, there’s a ChatGPT subscription. A few lines down, an AI note-taker you’ve never heard of. Then, buried in the expense claims, a writing assistant someone bought on their personal card and claimed back. None of these went through […]
Software Pricing Is Moving From Seats to Usage. Is Your Spend Management Ready?
For most of the last two decades, software had a simple price tag: a fixed fee per user, per month. That model made software spend easy to reason about. Count the people, multiply by the price, and you knew the bill before it arrived. AI is changing that. More of what businesses pay for is […]
