Daily & hourly anomaly alerts
Outlier detection for spikes and dips across AI and custom meters.


UsageTap Features
Explore core capabilities for metering AI usage, API usage, and custom metrics, setting entitlements, and aligning value with revenue—all with predictable controls your team can trust.

Get a live view of calls, tokens, and cost, meticulously organized by both customer and AI feature category. Drill down to understand behavior, pinpoint errors, and see exactly where spend is going. Monitor everything in real-time with comprehensive visibility across your entire AI infrastructure.
Stop reacting to overages—start predicting them. UsageTap's predictive algorithms analyze usage patterns to forecast future spend in both dollars and API calls, giving you and your customers the visibility to act before costs spiral out of control.
See projected spend before it happens. Our algorithms predict future costs based on historical patterns, trend analysis, and usage velocity—so finance and product teams can plan with confidence.
Anticipate API call volume before limits are reached. Identify customers trending toward overages and proactively offer upgrades or adjustments—turning potential churn into expansion revenue.
Get notified when predictions indicate a customer is heading toward their limits. Automated alerts give you time to intervene with personalized outreach before surprises hit their invoice.
Statistical time-series models flag actuals that diverge significantly from expected usage, so you can investigate spikes, drops, or model drift early.

Predicted spend in dollars based on usage trends

Anomaly detection for actuals vs. expected usage
Keep customers and ops teams ahead of surprises. UsageTap sends daily and hourly anomaly alerts when AI or custom meter usage shifts dramatically from predicted trends. Weekly forecast emails provide proactive guidance with CTAs to upgrade plans or top up PAYGo credit before limits are reached. Statistical forecasting and anomaly detection optimize revenue and reduce unanticipated operating costs due to excessive user behavior.
Outlier detection for spikes and dips across AI and custom meters.
Customer-facing forecasts with upgrade and PAYGo top-up prompts.


Track every AI call, token, capability (reasoning, search, etc.), API request, and custom metric across features so you always know who used what, when, and how much.
Create tiers, set replenishment cycles, and define actions at limits based on AI usage, API usage, and custom metering. Start free, then scale customers as usage grows—no webhook wrangling.
Define plan- or customer-level allowances with hard/soft caps. Guardrails apply per AI call, per token, per model capability, per API request, and per custom metric.
Prevent usage beyond limits
Reduce service level (e.g. gpt-5 to gpt-5-mini)
Charge separately for excess usage
Allow unlimited usage with pay-as-you-go pricing
Choose the outcome at the limit—block, throttle, or bill overage. Switch policies without engineering sprints. Complete flexibility to match your business model and customer expectations.
Embeddables & API
Drop in real-time widgets showing usage vs allowance, usage forecasting, recent calls, and upgrade prompts. Empower your customers with predictive insights—our forecast widget shows projected usage so they can plan ahead and avoid surprises.
