Get AI under control
before the bill does

Every model, seat, and API key in one governed layer, with the duplicate accounts merged and the token spend capped.

Personal accounts rolled into workspaces

The Problem

AI spend grew faster than anyone approved it

A dozen $20 subscriptions on personal cards. API keys issued for a prototype and never revoked. Three teams paying three vendors for the same capability. None of it went through procurement, and all of it is billing.

Two bills, one problem

Based on Nicklpass customer deployments

A subscription has a ceiling. Token spend does not, and it grows quietly.

What You Get

Consolidate the accounts, then cap the consumption

Nicklpass brings AI seats, providers, and token spend into the same governed layer as the rest of your stack.

Seat spend is what someone signed for. Token spend is what your systems decided to spend. Both belong under the same policy.

01

Consolidation

Fewer vendors, fewer accounts, one plan you can govern.

Group and consolidate overlapping AI tools
Roll personal $20 accounts into enterprise workspaces
Compare cost and capability across AI providers
Retire duplicate subscriptions doing the same job
Consolidation recommendation across overlapping AI tools
02

Consumption control

The part of the AI bill that has no natural ceiling.

Cap runaway API and token spend
Monitor consumption by user, team, model, and provider
Catch unexpected spikes before they reach the invoice
Attribute model cost back to the team that caused it

03

Governance

AI inside the same policy perimeter as everything else.

Enforce data and prompt-retention policy across approved tools
Surface AI running outside managed environments
Revoke AI access when people leave or change role
Keep a record of which providers are approved and for what

How It Works

Connect the money, the accounts, and the providers

Nicklpass reports on AI spend and consumption. It does not sit in the request path between your applications and the model.

01

Connect finance

AI charges resolve to real vendors, including the personal-card subscriptions that come back through expense reimbursement.

02

Find the accounts

Workspace sync and the browser extension surface which AI tools people have authorized and which they actually open, including free-tier accounts on work email.

03

Connect providers

Bring in model, API, and token consumption so per-seat and per-token spend sit in the same view, attributed to teams.

Sprawl caught while it is still small

Nicklpass agents flag the AI tool bought on a personal card, the workspace seat unused since the pilot, and the integration whose token spend doubled last week. Every action is logged with the dollars it returned.

The Result

One governed AI layer instead of a dozen invoices

Consolidation on evidence, and a consumption bill you saw coming.

Consolidating is not the same as banning

The tools people adopted on their own are usually the ones they find useful, and cancelling them outright tends to push usage further out of sight. The point of consolidation is to move that usage into an account you can govern, price, and secure, rather than to take it away.

Questions

Straight answers

Do you read prompts or model outputs?

No. Nicklpass measures consumption and cost: which tools are used, by whom, how often, and how many tokens against which model. Prompt and response content is never collected.

How do you cap token spend?

Hard limits are enforced at the provider. Nicklpass monitors consumption by user, team, model, and provider, alerts on unexpected spikes, and tells you where the cap needs to be set and why.

Will this slow down our engineers?

No. Nicklpass reports on consumption rather than proxying requests. Nothing is routed through us and nothing is rate limited by us.

What about free-tier accounts on work email?

Those are the hardest to see and often the easiest to consolidate. The workspace connection and the extension surface them, and rolling them into a governed workspace usually costs less than the risk of leaving them where they are.

How is this different from AI Usage Management?

Same connection, different question. AI Usage Management is about adoption and consumption data: who uses what, and how much. This service is about acting on it: merging accounts, capping spend, and enforcing policy.

Standing up AI governance across the company?

Merging duplicate AI accounts and capping one runaway integration usually covers the year. Governance is what keeps it from happening again.
