What your team gains with Concentrate

01

Tune how sensitive it is

Choose how far spend has to break from baseline before it alerts, so you catch real anomalies without drowning in noise from normal traffic swings.

02

Scope it to the right owner

Monitor spend by organization, team, user, or key, so the alert lands with the people who can actually shut down the runaway workload.

03

Same-day, not month-end

Catch a runaway agent loop or a bad prompt change the day it starts, instead of finding it on the invoice three weeks later.

Who Concentrate is designed for

Catch runaway AI spend the day it starts

A spend spike alert compares current usage to a workload's baseline and notifies the owner when the gap is large enough to matter. That turns month-end surprises into same-day signals — often before a key limit is hit.

Finance and operations

See unusual movement by org or team without waiting for the provider invoice.

Key and app owners

Scope alerts to the key behind a production app so the right team gets the notification.

Platform engineering

Catch agent loops, prompt regressions, or model swaps that doubled token volume overnight.

Tunable sensitivity

Choose how far spend must deviate before alerting so normal traffic swings do not flood inboxes.

Feature basics
