CostLens — definition
CostLens is a cost-observability tool for AI agents and LLM workflows that attributes spend per run, per tool, and per model, so teams can find the workflows burning the most token budget.
What this is NOT
- Not a law firm, GRC platform, or ISO certification body.
- Not a guarantee that drafted policies will satisfy every regulator or auditor.
- Not a payment processor, cloud bill, or cost guarantee.

Your questions, answered
What does CostLens track?
LLM and agent inference cost attributed to agents, features, and users — with budget guardrails. Decision-support, not a billing certificate.
Is this legal advice or a certification?
No. Outputs are decision-support drafts. Have counsel and risk owners review before production. We do not claim ISO, CMP, or regulator certification.
Can I cancel anytime?
Yes. Self-serve plans cancel anytime; access continues until period end.
Do I need a credit card to start?
No. Start with email signup or Demo mode in the studio, then upgrade when ready.
Do I need my own ChatGPT / OpenAI subscription?
No for Free/Pro. AI runs are included in your plan (fair use) via our platform key. Enterprise can optionally bring your own OpenAI key (BYOK) — configure it at /settings (key stays server-side only).
What is Fair Use / what if I hit the AI limit?
Free includes 3 AI drafts/day and 15/month. Pro includes 40/day and 300/month. At the fair-use limit, Studio returns a labelled demo until reset — or use Enterprise BYOK for heavier volume.
Is checkout secure?
Payments are processed by Waffo Pancake (merchant of record).
What happens after I pay?
You receive access confirmation; fulfillment is tracked via webhook + order logs.
