A free, interactive Power BI experience from Acterys that lets you explore AI token usage, spend drivers, model economics and AI spend management using realistic sample data. ### Is this a free Acterys trial? No. The free experience lets you explore a specific AI spend management use case without implementing Acterys in your environment. Connecting live data and adding customer-specific forecasting, workflow and governed writeback requires Acterys. ### How can I track AI token usage and spend? The experience shows how token usage, cost, model economics and related analysis can be brought together in Power BI so you can see where spend is concentrated and what is driving changes. ### Can I use my own AI consumption data? The free experience uses sample data. Acterys can connect your live source systems and apply the approach to your organization's data, requirements and business processes. ### How is this different from my AI provider's usage dashboard? Provider usage dashboards are useful for seeing what has already been consumed, but visibility alone does not tell teams what to do next. The AI Spend and Token Cost Tracker brings usage, cost, model economics, efficiency and forward-looking analysis together in Power BI. Acterys extends that approach with planning, scenario modeling, workflow and governed writeback. ### What else can Acterys do? AI Spend Management is one example of how Acterys extends Power BI with planning, modeling, workflow and governed writeback so teams can move from analyzing business data to actively managing business processes.
