Control Your AI Spending
Unused ChatGPT Plus subscriptions, API credits that expire unused, and over-provisioned rate limits are burning through your AI budget. Most teams have no visibility into actual usage.
Common OpenAI Cost Issues
Duplicate ChatGPT Plus Subscriptions
Employees purchase individual ChatGPT Plus accounts ($20/month) when company already has Team subscriptions, resulting in duplicate costs.
Unused API Credits
Companies purchase API credits in bulk but don't use them before expiration, wasting thousands on unused credits.
Over-Provisioned Rate Limits
Teams request high API rate limits "just in case" but never reach them, paying premium pricing for capacity they don't need.
No Usage Visibility
Companies have no visibility into which employees use ChatGPT, how much API usage occurs, or which models are actually needed.
