AI cost audit

Build a cost model from observed usage and current primary-source prices. Treat repository intent, measured usage, invoices, and projections as different evidence classes.

Choose a mode

• Inventory: map model/media calls, routing, retries, and ownership.
• Economics: calculate cost per action, user, plan, and month.
• Simulation: compare pricing, volume, model, cache, batch, or abuse scenarios.
• Optimization: rank changes after measuring quality and operational risk.
• Reconciliation: explain the gap between bottom-up estimates and provider invoices.
• Verification: confirm that a completed change reduced spend without unacceptable quality or latency regressions.

Use the narrowest mode that answers the request. Combine modes only when the user asks for a full audit or the dependency is necessary.
