Track AI spending

Track AI spending

Hosted services under maintenance: Platform and the managed API are under maintenance. Their instructions below are retained for when those features return; Chat and Mobile instructions describe the live apps. This notice does not apply to public model downloads or Vinci Code’s bring-your-own-key setup. See the current products page .

The AI Spend Console on the Vinci Platform ↗  shows what you spend across AI vendors — Anthropic, OpenAI, OpenRouter, and Vinci — on one dashboard, day by day.

You’ll find it as AI Spend in the Platform sidebar.

This is different from the Platform Usage page, which tracks your Vinci credit balance and Vinci usage — see Billing & limits for that.

Connect your vendors

Open AI Spend → Connect and paste an API key for each vendor you want to track. The guided steps for each vendor show exactly which key to create and where. Your Vinci spend is included automatically — no key needed.

  • Check the connection result shown by the vendor setup screen before relying on the reported spend.
  • Stored credentials are encrypted and are not returned by customer-facing pages or connection API responses; those show metadata such as the last four characters.
  • Disconnecting clears the active connection’s stored credential. Imported history remains unless you request its deletion through the offered purge control.
  • Connecting starts a history import. The default requested range is up to 12 months, but available history and per-key breakdowns vary by vendor and successful imports.

Use only the credentials and scopes supported by the offered setup flow. A successful connection check does not establish that a credential is read-only. Anthropic Console admin keys have broad permissions; supported OAuth credentials require org:admin. OpenRouter daily reports require a Management API key, previously called a provisioning key, and cover the last 30 completed UTC days. A normal OpenRouter inference key does not populate a spend report in the current importer.

What you’ll see

  • One chart with every vendor’s daily spend, stacked or side by side.
  • Totals for the period, a projection of where the period will end at your current pace, and your largest vendor — each compared with the previous period.
  • A card per vendor with its total, share of spend, connection status, and when its data was last refreshed.
  • Date presets from 7 days to 12 months, or a custom range. The range is part of the page address, so a link you share shows the same period.

The console is honest about what it knows: days it could not fetch are named rather than shown as $0, totals that may be incomplete are labelled, and a breakdown it cannot stand behind is left out rather than guessed.

Anthropic per-key dollar amounts are estimates derived from vendor cost and usage reports. Check gaps and attribution labels before relying on a breakdown. There is no universal December 2025 start date for OpenAI per-key usage.

Visiting the page starts a refresh when its data is older than 6 hours. Manual refresh is also offered. This does not promise updates while nobody visits the page. Recent days are re-fetched during a sync to pick up vendor corrections.

For organizations

Select the intended personal or organization context before connecting a vendor. Connections and reports are stored against that context, and organization connection controls require an owner or admin. Current access after membership changes remains subject to Platform-owner verification; sharing a date-range link does not grant access to another account’s report.
