AI spend is climbing fast. Budgets aren't keeping up. Who uses it? For what? What came of it? Requests from AI tools and apps flow toward the models and disappear.

ixway is one gateway for Claude Code, Codex, Cursor and your own apps. See who uses AI and what for: the product team, 15 people active over 30 days, spent $6.2k on new features, $4.0k on bug fixes, $2.3k on review and tests and $0.9k on other work. And what it actually produced: 612 commits, 148 pull requests and 24 deploys. A model policy per team: frontier models for hard work, cheaper ones for the rest. Know where the waste is: $6,080 a month in estimated waste found across five findings. Engineers get the fix, right in their AI tool: thirteen unused tool definitions, re-sent every request, are dropped from one engineer's Claude Code setup, and their tokens per session fall. The figures are illustrative.

02Cost control

Spend less without slowing anyone down.

Visibility shows where the money goes. These controls change where it goes next.

2.A Routing

Send each team's work to the right model.

Not every task needs the most expensive model. Set a policy for each team, and try it in shadow before it goes live.

The frontier model for hard problems. Cheaper models for routine work.

2.B Waste

Find the waste. Send the fix to the tool that caused it.

Each finding is priced and linked to the sessions where it happened. Accept it, and the fix goes to the AI tool behind it.
