Know your AI margin before the cloud bill arrives.
Aforo measures the real per-tenant cost of every LLM call, AI agent session, and MCP tool invocation in real time, then enforces margin circuit breakers, quota guards, and revenue throttles so unprofitable usage never lands on an invoice.
You ship an AI feature. The bill arrives 30 days later. The margin is gone.
AI products have a margin problem most billing tools cannot see. OpenAI charges per token, AWS Bedrock charges per request, your own GPUs charge per second. By the time finance reconciles, your top customer has consumed three months of margin in one weekend.
- COGS hidden in 5+ provider invoices, reconciled monthly
- No per-tenant attribution, you guess which customer ate the cost
- No circuit breaker, abuse and runaway loops compound silently
- Pricing changes ship in code, not in a console
What you get with Aforo
Live COGS-per-tenant attribution
Every AI call carries provider-cost telemetry. Aforo aggregates it per tenant, per metric, per minute. You see real margin in the dashboard, not in next month's P&L.
Margin circuit breakers
Margin Guard sets per-product margin thresholds. When a tenant's margin drops below the floor, Aforo throttles, alerts, or blocks, your call.
Quota guards at the gateway
Hard quotas enforced at Kong, Apigee, AWS, Azure, and MuleSoft. Stop runaway loops at the edge, not at the database. Sub-millisecond enforcement.
Anomaly detection on usage
Unsupervised anomaly models flag tenants with abnormal token-per-session, tool-call burst, or session-length patterns. Investigate before they invoice.
Cost-aware pricing experiments
Model price changes against historical COGS. Aforo simulates the new revenue and the new margin so you ship pricing that protects the bottom line.
Reconciliation with cloud bills
Quarterly reconciliation against AWS, GCP, Azure, OpenAI, and Anthropic invoices. Tighten the COGS model continuously, drift never compounds.
Outcomes Aforo customers ship
AI margin protection is a platform feature, not a spreadsheet.
Aforo gives you the live AI cost view, the circuit breakers, and the price experiments to keep AI margins healthy at scale.
