Building AI Chargeback: From Metering to Billing | Webinar | June 9, 2026

Hello

there,

Your AI platform is running. Teams are using it. Then Finance asks how much each team is actually spending, and you realize you don't have a clean answer.

That's the chargeback problem. It sounds like a billing question. It's really an infrastructure question. Token consumption, model selection, request volume. None of that maps cleanly to a cost center without the right plumbing in place.

Join us for a technical walkthrough of what it actually takes to build AI chargeback from the ground up.

You'll learn:

How to meter AI traffic at the gateway layer without instrumenting every app

How to attribute usage to cost centers, teams, or tenants at the API layer

How to turn per-request data into monthly cost summaries Finance can act on

When to bill internally vs. just make usage visible, and why the distinction matters
