How do I estimate token cost per user per month?
Start rough. Look at ten days of usage by a few colleagues, multiply by team size, add margin for peaks.
Try this first
- 1Pull the usage export from your provider, not gut feel
- 2Use a per active user average, not per seat
- 3Budget with peak, not mean, usage
- 4Set hard limits per workspace so a loop does not run away
When to bring us in
If usage doubles without explanation, pause first.
