AI Cost Board dashboard overview with workspace-level metrics

Dashboard view for model, provider, and workspace spend tracking.

What to instrument first

  • Start with one production workflow and one owner before scaling instrumentation across teams.
  • Track cost, usage, latency, and errors together so the first dashboard supports real tradeoff decisions.
  • Use request logs to explain spikes and validate alert thresholds before expanding coverage.

Common cost drivers to monitor

  • Retries and fallback loops can multiply spend even when token pricing looks cheap.
  • Prompt/context growth silently increases input token cost over time.
  • Latency regressions often correlate with retries and timeout-driven duplicate requests.

Recommended next steps

  • Instrument one workflow with project tags and request logs.
  • Build a baseline dashboard for cost, usage, latency, and errors.
  • Add alerts and a weekly review cadence before scaling to more teams.
