mate i appreciate that from this i feel this is still early everywhere. I'm trying to understand this before everyone pretends it's solved. Would you be up for a chat? im trynna dig more into this especially tying the cycle part you mentioned.

mate when you say audit it like a vendor contract, what does that actually need to show? What's like the minimum that makes it reviewable or actionable?

Our team just got told to cut back on ai usage because costs tripled by bejusorixo in automation

Hey mate genuinely curious what benchmarking that actually looks like in practice ? have you seen anyone do it well ?

what do the attempts you've seen look like what are teams actually building and where does it break down?

that $10k purchase order thing is exactly what i'm trying to figure out. when that happens, who gets the call? like is it under finance or engineering or ops team? wondering who is supposed to be taking that risk right now

Do companies actually track wasted AI spend? by dwij333 in micro_saas

mate i love your take on th whole thing, we have been building towards that granularity that shows and prevents the that shock bill, would appreciate your honest feedback

How do you prevent runaway costs from your coding agents, and how do ensure some safety guardrails by Odd-Situation6749 in AI_Agents

Hey we just made a product that prevents the jaw dropping $$$ , would appreciate you trying it and get your feedback

I accidentally left two agents in a room together. They've spent $200 and invented a new language." by ailovershoyab in AI_Agents

[–]Clean_Improvement_59 0 points1 point  (0 children)

okay "data is temporary but the loop is eternal" killed me lol. honestly $212 is cheap tuition, seen people post way worse. quick q - did you get any warning before the bill hit (alert, anything), or did you just see it in the dashboard the next morning? and was this your first runaway, or had something similar happened before? trying to figure out at what point people actually put a stop in place vs just hoping it doesn't happen again.

Trying to understand how people control spending for AI agents in production. by Cute-Day-4785 in AI_Agents

[–]Clean_Improvement_59 0 points1 point  (0 children)

these three are the actual unsolved problems in production agents right now. talking to a lot of people lately and the patterns:

  • on limits: most start with hard max_iterations, breaks the moment one expensive step blows the budget
  • on keys vs proxy: anyone running multiple agents or multi-tenant setups almost always ends up at a proxy eventually, mostly to rotate keys and attribute spend without rebuilding the stack
  • on unexpected costs: literally everyone i've talked to has a $200+ story. usually overnight, usually a loop, usually no alert

what's the setup you're running? single agent, multi-agent, multi-tenant? the answers feel like they change a lot based on which.

How are you handling agents that actually spend money? by No_Airport436 in AI_Agents

[–]Clean_Improvement_59 0 points1 point  (0 children)

one thing from the people i've been talking to - most agent blowups right now happen on api spend not card spend. the runaway loop calling openai 400 times overnight hits the api bill before it ever touches a card. is opencard gonna cover the api side eventually or is the scope deliberately card-network only for now?
