Ai Cost Savings Calculator Guide
The AI cost savings calculator helps estimate and analyze your AI-related expenses based on routed requests and baseline costs. It provides insights into potential savings and the impact of routing strategies.
What is the AI Cost Savings Calculator?
The AI cost savings calculator is a built-in tool designed to assist organizations in understanding their AI spending. It compares routed costs against baseline models, enabling cost management and optimization.
How the Calculator Works
The calculator uses data from your routed requests and a baseline cost model to compute savings. It can generate reports that show the total cost saved over a period, helping teams identify cost-effective routing strategies.
Using the Savings Ledger
The calculator relies on a savings ledger that tracks each routed request and its cost. This ledger provides the data foundation for calculating total savings and analyzing cost patterns.
Setting Up the AI Cost Savings Calculator
To start using the calculator, you need to connect your workspace’s savings ledger. This ledger contains data on your routed requests and baseline costs.
Example Configuration
Here is a simple example of initializing the savings report:
from opensmartroute.enterprise.savings import SavingsLedger, SavingsReport
ledger = SavingsLedger()
report = SavingsReport(ledger)
print(report.total_savings)
Comparing Cost Management Options
The calculator can help compare different routing strategies or models to determine which offers the best cost efficiency.
| Strategy | Description | Potential Savings |
|---|---|---|
| Routing A | Routes requests to provider X | $1,200/month |
| Routing B | Routes requests to provider Y | $1,500/month |
