Track AI Token Usage → Generate Cost Reports → Send Slack Alerts
Monitor AI tool spending across your organization by tracking token usage, generating automated cost reports, and alerting teams when budgets are exceeded.
Workflow Steps
OpenAI API
Track token consumption
Set up API monitoring to log token usage across all GPT calls, including model type, tokens consumed, and cost per request. Use the usage endpoint to pull daily consumption data.
Google Sheets
Generate cost reports
Create a spreadsheet that automatically calculates weekly and monthly AI costs by department. Use formulas to track spending trends and budget remaining for each team.
Zapier
Send budget alerts
Configure Zapier to monitor the Google Sheet and trigger Slack notifications when any department hits 80% of their monthly AI budget, including current spend and projected overage.
