01

Built around the work before the invoice

AI agents generate real costs. Professional services teams need to track those costs with the same discipline applied to billable hours.

Capture AI agent costs as they happen

Record token fees, subscription usage, and compute costs against the client project they serve as the agents run — not reconstructed at billing time from company card statements.

Review agent costs alongside human time

Combine AI agent cost records with human billable hours in one review so the total delivery effort is visible before the invoice cycle starts.

Produce billing evidence that covers every delivery resource

Use reviewed human and agent cost data to prepare client summaries and invoice backup that reflect how the work was actually delivered.

02

AI cost billing

Give AI agent costs the same billing treatment as human delivery hours

Professional services teams now routinely deploy AI agents for research, drafting, coding, analysis, and client deliverables. These agents have real costs — token fees, subscription charges, and compute overhead — but most firms have no system for attributing those costs to specific clients or projects. Keito provides the tracking layer: capture AI agent costs, attribute them to client work, review them alongside human time, and produce combined billing evidence for each engagement.

Attribute AI agent costs to specific clients and projects rather than treating them as overhead

Review agent spend alongside human billing before the invoice cycle closes

Produce billing evidence that shows the total cost of delivery, not just the human hours

Workflow fit

AI cost attribution

Keito keeps ai agent cost tracking connected to client, project, billable status, approval, and invoice context before the work reaches finance.

What Keito adds to ai agent cost tracking

Per-client AI cost attribution

Keito tracks AI agent costs against the same client and project structure as human billable hours so agent spend is never invisible overhead. Agent sessions land as source-tagged time entries via the CLI, API, or Agent Skill, with LLM token costs logged as expenses.

  • Token and subscription cost capture
  • Client and project attribution
  • Reviewable alongside human time

Combined human and agent billing view

See total delivery cost — human hours and AI agent costs together — by client and project so pricing, margins, and billing decisions reflect the real cost of work.

  • Human + AI cost in one workspace
  • Project-level margin context
  • Combined billing evidence

Flat pricing for AI-augmented teams

Keito flat pricing means adding AI tracking capacity to the billing workflow does not create a per-seat cost spike as more people and more agents are involved in delivery.

  • No per-user escalation
  • Room for AI and human contributors
  • Predictable monthly tool cost

Frequently asked questions

What is AI agent cost tracking?

AI agent cost tracking is the practice of measuring and attributing the operational costs of AI agents — token fees, compute, and subscription spend — to specific clients, projects, and engagements so they can be reviewed and included in billing evidence.

Why should professional services firms track AI agent costs?

AI agents are not free. Token fees and subscription costs accumulate by client engagement. Without tracking, these costs are absorbed as invisible overhead, reducing project margins without producing any billing evidence or client value signal.

Can Keito track both AI agent costs and human billable hours?

Yes. Keito is designed to capture both human time and AI agent costs against client projects so billing evidence covers the full delivery effort.

What should AI agent cost tracking capture for AI-assisted client work?

AI agent cost tracking should capture agent session context, token or compute costs, client and project attribution, human review time, and whether the cost should appear in client billing. Keito keeps AI costs and human effort together so firms can explain the full delivery picture.

What should a client-ready AI agent cost tracking report include?

A client-ready AI agent cost tracking report should include the client, project, task, contributor, billable status, approval state, and a concise explanation of completed work. Keito keeps those details connected so reports can answer client questions without exposing internal delivery notes.
