How Stackpack Helps You Track Your AI Costs

In this article, you’ll discover:

• How to get real time tracking of your AI costs.
• Why it is important to monitor worker usage for tools like OpenAI and Claude.
• How to pick the right models so you do not waste your company budget.
• The easiest way to manage your tech spending on a single screen.

Many companies use artificial intelligence to get daily work done. Teams are writing code, drafting emails, and summarizing notes with these new tools. But there is a big problem that finance teams face today. Every single time a worker uses an AI program, it uses tokens. Those tokens cost real money. Most of the time, the people managing the budget cannot see where this money goes until a huge bill arrives at the end of the month. This makes it very hard to control spending.

Sara Wyman is the CEO and Founder at Stackpack. She explains why this matters. “We are at an inflection point in how finance leaders think about the cost of work. AI agents are doing real work inside companies right now, but almost no finance team can see the cost or the output.” She adds that Stackpack gives leaders the exact same visibility for AI spending that they have for their regular workers. It gives them a clear path to measure their business success.

A Better Way to See Your AI Spending

Stackpack created a new product called AI Token Attribution. It gives finance leaders a clear picture of their company budget. Instead of guessing what happened, you can see your exact costs in real time. This tool works with popular platforms like OpenAI, Anthropic, and Cursor. You do not have to wait for a confusing invoice anymore.

Finding Out Who Uses The Tools

One of the best features of Stackpack is that it tracks worker usage. You can see exactly how many tokens each person is using. If the sales team is using a lot of AI, you will know. If developers are coding with Cursor, you can track costs per user. This helps leaders see if the money spent is actually helping the company grow.

Choosing the Right AI Models

Not all AI tools cost the same amount. Some are very cheap, while others are very expensive. Stackpack shows you exactly which specific models your team is using. This helps you figure out if people are picking the most expensive option just out of habit. You can save a lot of company money by guiding your team to use the right tool for the job.

Managing Everything in One Place

Finance teams should not have to check five different websites to understand their daily spending. Stackpack puts all of this data into a single screen. You can see your total token usage and your total cost in one simple view. The setup is very fast and takes less than an hour. By treating your AI costs like you treat your regular payroll, you can build a stronger and healthier business plan.
