AgentUsageLens – AI coding quota visibility and optimization board
Help teams see real costs and usage efficiency of ChatGPT/Claude subscriptions before quotas vanish
- Problem
- Many companies switching to ChatGPT Enterprise find credits burn up in under two hours, while the old Business plan with 5-hour limits felt far more durable. Admins can't explain the billing, and comparing GitHub Copilot vs. direct Claude costs is a blur. Usage and billing data live in separate consoles, leaving no single view.
- Solution
- A lightweight dashboard that connects to existing AI coding tool APIs (or lets users paste billing CSVs) to track credits, token usage, and real costs per person and project. It adds simple alert rules when someone nears a limit, and offers cross-tool cost comparison advice, such as Copilot bundle vs. direct Claude.
- Users
- Tech leads, engineering managers, and IT admins at small to mid-sized teams.
- MVP
- Import or fetch usage data from OpenAI, Anthropic, and Copilot; show credit consumption trends by person or team; set quota alert emails; export cost comparison reports.
- Revenue
- Monthly subscription based on team size; or open-core with paid hosted version.
- Why now
- As companies shift from flat subscriptions to usage-based billing, cost blind spots grow, and existing tools only monitor cloud costs, not AI coding subscriptions.
