LLM Usage Meter & Budgeting SDK

Suggested product

LLM Usage Meter & Budgeting SDK

A drop-in SDK + dashboard that gives real-time, model-agnostic token accounting, cost attribution, and quota forecasting for LLM apps and power users. It estimates "effective burn" under provider-specific peak-hour policies, highlights hidden overhead (tools/MCP, long context), and generates actionable recommendations (compact, context resets, tool pruning) to prevent lockouts and surprise spend.

Target customer

LLM product teams and internal platform teams shipping LLM features (SaaS, agents, devtools) who need predictable usage/cost control; secondarily, power users on high-cost plans managing daily workflows.

Problem-solution fit

Users are explicitly asking for transparency (peak-hour indicator, token budgets, counters) and are canceling due to unpredictable throttling and meter behavior. This product provides the missing metering layer providers often omit, helping teams forecast capacity and control costs/quotas before users hit hard limits—directly addressing the trust and usability breakdown described.
