Most enterprises can report what AI cost them. Far fewer can say which team owns it, whether it was approved, or what it returned.
FinOpsly closes that gap. The platform governs AI spend on the same cost model that carries the cloud, data platform and SaaS an AI workload consumes, so a business unit sees the full cost of an AI initiative instead of four disconnected bills.
Capabilities include:
Cost estimation before deployment. Model an architecture and get a priced workload across model APIs, GPU capacity, warehouse consumption and storage, with the assumptions on screen. Weigh model choices against consumption you have actually measured.
Attribution that holds up in a chargeback cycle. Spend resolves to owners, teams, applications, business units and customers through hierarchies nine or more levels deep. Tagging is standardized across providers, keys and resources are labeled in bulk from plain-language rules, and whatever remains unattributed is published as a number, not absorbed.
Guardrails that act. Set budgets by project, team or API key. Catch anomalies with root cause and route them to whoever owns the resource. Surface waste that provider tooling misses, using FinOpsly's own detection models. Plan commitments across AWS, Azure and Google Cloud. Park idle compute on approved schedules, reversibly.
Financial results you can defend. Automated chargeback in a single cycle. Savings measured as what reached run-rate against a no-action baseline. Unit economics down to cost per call, per active user and per customer served.
For technology and finance leaders accountable for what AI spend returns.

Spanlens
Spanlens is an open-source observability platform licensed under MIT that enables developers to effectively track each interaction their applications have with services like OpenAI, Anthropic, Gemini, Mistral, OpenRouter, Azure OpenAI, or a local Ollama model. The integration process is incredibly simple, requiring just a single line of code to change the client's baseURL to the Spanlens proxy, or by executing "npx @spanlens/cli init," which prompts a wizard to automatically adjust your code. Once integrated, all requests are meticulously logged, capturing details such as the model used, token counts, latency, cost, and the complete prompt and response body, while also seamlessly reconstructing streaming responses.
The accompanying dashboard transforms this raw log data into actionable operational insights. Cost tracking functionality allows users to break down expenditures by individual requests, models, and end users, while also distinguishing prompt-cache tokens to provide clarity on actual savings rather than simply the total costs. Additionally, agent tracing presents multi-step workflows visually, using Gantt waterfalls and node-and-edge graphs to emphasize the critical path, enabling developers to pinpoint the slowest dependencies in a fan-out scenario. This comprehensive approach not only enhances visibility but also empowers users to optimize their model interactions for better efficiency and cost management.

OpenRouter
OpenRouter is a unified AI inference platform that lets developers connect to a large catalog of models without integrating separately with every model provider. Through one API, users can access models from major AI companies including OpenAI, Google, Anthropic, Meta, Mistral, DeepSeek, Qwen, xAI, and numerous independent providers. The service supports multimodal workloads involving text, images, video, and audio. Developers can use a single account, credit balance, and API key across supported models instead of maintaining separate billing relationships and credentials. OpenRouter's routing infrastructure can prioritize providers based on factors such as price, latency, and reliability. Requests can also be redirected to alternate providers when a preferred endpoint becomes unavailable, helping applications maintain higher uptime. Organizations can configure data policies that restrict prompts to approved models and infrastructure providers. The platform provides benchmarks, model rankings, usage information, documentation, and developer tools for evaluating and deploying different models. OpenRouter is OpenAI API compatible, making it easier for teams to add broad model access to existing AI applications with limited integration changes.
