Overview
Most mid-market AI buyers discovered in 2025 that token-spend scales sideways: a $5K/month workload becomes $50K/month inside two quarters. We instrument the stack, find where the dollars actually go, and cut cost by 30–60% — with every change eval-gated so quality never drops.
Honest about fit
A fit if…
- You run at least one production AI system with monthly LLM spend over $10K
- Your CFO or CEO has asked "what is this AI costing us, and is it worth it?"
- You've learned quality-preserving cost optimization is an engineering discipline, not a model swap
Not a fit if…
- Your monthly LLM spend is under $10K — the economics don't work yet
- You want a one-time cost report with no implementation — buy the Audit and walk
- You believe the answer is "just use the cheapest model for everything" — let the Audit show you the data
What you get
Concrete deliverables. No hand-waving.
- Audit: full cost breakdown by model, workload, team, and use case
- Token-spend telemetry — where the dollars actually go, not where you think they go
- Cache-hit analysis and the top 10 highest-cost queries, broken down
- Model-routing recommendation with per-route savings estimate
- Retainer: monthly optimization implementations — caching, routing, prompt rewrites, batching
- Savings tracked against fee; every change regression-tested before it ships
- Optimize tier guarantee: our fee is less than the savings we generate, or we credit the difference
