FinOps for AI

/brutor ai finops/

Don’t just manage AI costs. Actively reduce them.

Brutor keeps you on top of AI spend across your whole company, from one control plane — the traffic you route through the Brutor AI Gateway, the AI you buy, and even the shadow AI you haven’t discovered yet. No more surprise invoices at the end of the month. And for everything you route, the gateway reduces costs automatically.

Brutor AI Gateway — FinOps for AI traffic: routed traffic budgeted, metered, attributed and enforced per request; Mission Control cost command center; cost-cutting features; observed SaaS AI and shadow AI discovery
/cost management/

Budgeted. Metered. Attributed. Enforced. Per request.

For the AI traffic you route, the Brutor AI Gateway stops runaway invoices in real time — then helps cut the bills that do remain. Budgets live at the resource-group level and are enforced as the traffic flows; every call is logged, priced, and attributed the moment it completes.

Per-group budget limits

Daily spend caps, token limits, and request limits per team, project, or agent — for both LLM and MCP traffic.

Real-time enforcement

Exceed a limit and the next request is blocked with a clean HTTP 429 — not a surprise invoice.

Attribution & alerts

Every cost ties back to the user, team, model, agent, and tool call behind it — live in Mission Control, with anomaly alerts and an acknowledgement workflow.

Mission Control → Cost — Brutor Admin Console.
Mission Control → CostBudget burn-down and attribution, live. Every group’s daily and monthly cap with what it has actually spent against it, then the same total broken out by provider, model, team and user — and governed spend kept separate from imported vendor spend, because one is enforced and the other is observed.

Open observability: native OpenTelemetry hooks plug into Prometheus, Grafana, Loki, or any OTel backend you already run.

/actively reduce/

Cost that goes down, not just gets reported.

Because your traffic flows through the gateway, the gateway can make it cheaper — automatically, on every request. The built-in reducers:

Smart model routing

Route each task to the cheapest model that meets policy. Cheap, fast models handle routine work; premium tiers are reserved for the queries that actually need them.

Batch processing

Push large workloads — evaluations, document pipelines, bulk classification — through async batch processing at up to 50% lower cost on supported providers.

Two-layer cache

Your fastest, cheapest LLM call is the one you never make. A response cache catches exact-match prompts; the semantic cache recognizes reworded prompts asking the same thing. Both return cached responses — no token spend, no provider call.

Provider prompt caching, managed

Per-provider prompt-cache capabilities are tracked and configured centrally — so long system prompts get the provider-side discount wherever one exists.

Mission Control → LLM EconomicsCost per 1,000 requests falling while volume climbs. Smart routing and the caches move the unit cost down — the line drops from about $12.50 to $4 while monthly requests grow. Cost avoided is broken out and labelled honestly: gateway cache measured by hits and tokens saved, provider prompt cache from provider-reported discounts.
/agents, assured/

No runaway agents. No runaway bills.

The Brutor AI Gateway manages budgets for AI Agents, Assistants, Apps — and humans — alike. But agents need more than a budget line: the gateway understands agent management in depth, and for FinOps it adds something unique — Assurance: making sure agents perform as they should, so they never rack up the bill they shouldn’t.

Why the gateway does this better
  1. Every agent has an identity

    Spend is attributed to the agent and the skills it runs — not lost behind a shared API key. You see which agent spent what, as it happens.

  2. Limits enforce mid-request

    Per-agent budgets and per-skill quotas stop a runaway loop with a clean 429 the moment it crosses the line — the bill ends where the limit starts.

  3. You decide what agents can do

    Each agent’s reach is defined as a versioned contract — what it may touch, spend, and call. And in that definition, expensive calls and risky actions require human-in-the-loop approval, with notifications built in.

  4. Observe and Assure

    Shipping an agent is day one — assurance is every day after. The gateway watches runs, drift, and conformance while the agent works, so a misbehaving agent is caught before it burns budget — and the assurance report generates itself from what already happened.

/brutor user portal/

Brutor User Portal — your humans will thank you!

If you can route it, you should. The Brutor User Portal is enterprise AI chat managed by the Brutor AI Gateway — and its main advantage is that your company’s AI users get access to their data: knowledge bases with citations, their documents and connected sources, not a generic chatbot. And much more:

Their AI, safe

Guardrails screen every prompt and response — PII, secrets, and policy violations are caught in the flow, without users doing anything.

Their spend, monitored in detail

Each user sees the right models for their role, spend is tracked per user and team — and anyone approaching a budget limit gets a notification before the cutoff, not after.

Smart cost reduction, applied

Caching serves repeated answers instantly, batch processing takes the big jobs at lower cost, and smart routing picks the right-priced model for every conversation.

/the ai you buy/

Observed traffic, same ledger

Costs of the AI services you buy but don’t intercept — Microsoft Copilot, ChatGPT — can still be managed better. Brutor imports their usage and cost through vendor APIs in near real-time, files them into the same resource groups, and sends advisory budget warnings — one cost view for everything.

/shadow ai/

You can’t manage what you can’t see

Brutor helps you discover the AI used across your organization that you don’t yet manage or observe — so you can bring it into the loop and head off runaway costs before they start. More on Shadow AI Discovery →

/why brutor/

Where Brutor FinOps stands out.

  • Enforcement, not just dashboards. Most AI cost tools report and alert after the spend. Brutor’s budgets act in the request path — the call stops, then you read about it.
  • Agents are first-class cost subjects. Identity-level attribution, per-skill quotas, and approval gates — where others see one API key, Brutor sees every agent and skill.
  • Reduction is built into the same pipe. Routing, caching, and batch aren’t add-ons — they run on the traffic the gateway already governs.
  • One ledger for the whole estate. Routed traffic and imported vendor spend, attributed and exportable — and the platform itself never meters you: flat annual license, no per-token fees.
