Know what a change actually takes off your OpenAI invoice.
CostAssured connects read-only to your organisation's usage and costs endpoints and shows what is driving spend by project and key, what can safely change, and what each change returns at the rates your account is actually billed. OpenAI admin keys carry broad privilege, so CostAssured's guarantee here is what our code does and what your audit log shows: reads only, never a write.
CostAssured for OpenAI is on its way
The engine is provider neutral: commitment-aware savings, safety classification and generated remediation already run today. OpenAI is on the roadmap, and the waitlist gets the first invitation when scans open.
Where OpenAI spend drifts
None of this is carelessness. It is what accumulates when usage grows faster than governance, and it is what CostAssured reads for, without writing anything.
Cached input that is never reused
A prompt structured differently between calls breaks the automatic prompt cache, so a prefix that should qualify for the discount is repriced at full rate every time. CostAssured finds calls that look identical except for the ordering that breaks the cache.
Models kept past their cheaper successor
OpenAI ships a same-tier model at a lower price and calls keep going to the older one out of habit. CostAssured prices the same volume against the newer model so the migration is a decision, not a guess.
Projects and keys nobody attributes
Keys and projects outlive the work that created them, and the invoice only shows the organisation total. CostAssured reads spend by project and key so the team that owns the cost is the team that sees it.
Maximise value, eliminate accidental waste
You chose this platform on purpose and you pay for it on purpose. CostAssured finds the gap between what you meant to buy and what you are actually paying for, then prices every change both ways.
Read-only by design
CostAssured connects with read-only credentials and never writes to your account, on any plan. Every change stays in your hands.
Two numbers on every finding
Every saving is shown as a gross figure and an invoice-impacting figure, each with its basis: your confirmed contract rate, or the rate this account is actually billed.
Safety before savings
Findings are classified against a dependency graph. A resource referenced by an alerting, SLO or detection asset is never treated as low risk, and CostAssured will not recommend removing it.
Remediation you apply yourself
Every finding carries generated remediation artefacts: Terraform, a runbook or configuration JSON, each with a rollback. Generated, never executed.
We store usage metadata and configuration inventory, never telemetry or application content.
