Generative AI spending is now large enough that financial operations teams need dedicated frameworks to track it—moving FinOps from infrastructure cost control into token economics and LLM API bills. This matters because enterprise AI spend currently lacks the metering rigor that cloud computing developed over the last decade, creating both runaway budget risk and negotiating leverage that companies are only beginning to exploit. Organizations that instrument their AI spend at the token level, not just at the deployment level, will have better cost visibility and tighter procurement-engineering alignment than those that don't.
