Audience
SaaS founders, startup CTOs, AI/ML engineers, digital agencies, and no-code/automation builders (n8n, Make, Zapier) who use LLM APIs and need cost visibility and budget controls.
About Tokonomics
Tokonomics is an AI cost metering proxy that sits between your app and any LLM provider. One URL change gives you real-time cost tracking, budget alerts, and hard spending caps across OpenAI, Anthropic, DeepSeek, Google Gemini, Mistral, Groq, and more.
How it works: Replace your LLM base URL with Tokonomics, keep your existing code. Every API call is logged with token counts, cost (8-decimal USD precision), latency, and custom tags for per-team or per-feature attribution.
Key features:
- Budget alerts via email, Slack, or Teams at configurable thresholds
- Hard spending caps that block requests when monthly budget is exceeded
- Analytics dashboard with spend-by-model, daily trends, and cost optimization reports
- BYOK (Bring Your Own Keys) with AES-256 encryption
- Rate limiting per API key
- Works with any language or HTTP client (PHP, Python, Node.js, Go, Ruby)

Scout Monitoring
Scout Monitoring is Application Performance Monitoring (APM) that finds what you can't see in charts.
Scout APM is application performance monitoring that streamlines troubleshooting by helping developers find and fix performance issues before customers ever see them. With real-time alerting, a developer-centric UI, and tracing logic that ties bottlenecks directly to source code, Scout APM helps you spend less time debugging and more time building a great product.
Quickly identify, prioritize, and resolve performance problems – memory bloat, N+1 queries, slow database queries, and more – with an agent that instruments the dependencies you need at a fraction of the overhead.
Scout APM is built for developers, by developers, and monitors Ruby, PHP, Python, Node.js, and Elixir applications.

LLMetrics
LLMetrics is LLM cost tracking software for teams shipping AI products, bringing model spend, token usage, feature attribution, and usage alerts into one live dashboard. It supports more than 100 models across OpenAI, Anthropic, Google Gemini, Mistral, Cohere, Together AI, Groq, and other providers, with pricing data synchronized daily. Teams tag each model call with a feature name, provider, model, input tokens, and output tokens, allowing them to see exactly whether a chatbot, summarizer, search feature, lesson generator, or other workflow is driving spend. Real-time updates and daily trend charts reveal how costs change after releases, prompt edits, traffic growth, or model swaps. Spend thresholds and spike-detection rules can alert teams through email or Slack when usage patterns look wrong, helping them catch runaway loops and unexpected cost increases before the provider invoice arrives.

AICosts.ai
AICosts.ai is a unified AI cost management platform that brings billing and usage data from more than 50 providers into one dashboard. Teams upload provider invoices and exports in PDF, CSV, or JSON format, or push usage events through the developer API, and the platform parses them into a normalized structure without requiring a proxy or changes to production requests. It supports services including OpenAI, Anthropic, Google Gemini, AWS Bedrock, Azure OpenAI, Vertex AI, Cohere, Groq, Hugging Face, Pinecone, RunwayML, Make, Zapier, and n8n. Daily views break spending down by platform, model, and billed unit, including tokens, operations, characters, and other provider-specific measures, helping users compare services and see where each bill comes from. Budgets can cover the full AI stack or a specific platform or feature, with email alerts when rolling 30-day spending crosses configured thresholds.

LLMeter
LLMeter is an open source AI cost monitoring platform that gives developers one dashboard for tracking spend across OpenAI, Anthropic, DeepSeek, OpenRouter, Mistral, and Azure OpenAI. Teams connect read-only provider keys and can see real costs, daily trends, model-level breakdowns, and optimization opportunities in about 30 seconds without installing an SDK, changing endpoints, or routing production traffic through a proxy. Because requests continue going directly to the model provider, LLMeter adds no latency, does not become a point of failure, and never sees prompts or completions. Budget alerts warn teams before spending crosses daily or monthly limits, while anomaly detection identifies unexpected usage spikes before they grow. The dashboard shows which providers, models, endpoints, customers, and environments are driving costs, and OpenRouter support extends visibility across more than 500 models.
