Sam Benson's profile on Product Hunt

About

I’m a developer working on Synara, a modern event and invite API designed to fix the inconsistencies of ICS and keep Google and Outlook in sync reliably. I built it after running into the same problems every time I tried to send calendar invites from an app. I care about clear developer tooling, simple interfaces, and solving practical problems that show up in real products. If you’ve ever had to deal with calendar logic, I’m always interested in hearing your horror stories and how you approached it.

How are you tracking token usage and costs across AI workflows?

As AI applications become more complex, are people actually tracking token usage and costs at a workflow level?

It's easy enough to see usage for individual model calls, but once a feature spans multiple prompts, models, tools, retries, and background jobs, I've found it much harder to answer questions like:

Which workflow is driving costs?
Where is latency being introduced?
Which step failed?
How much does a single user action actually cost?

Curious what others are using today.

PromptLayer - Trace AI requests, workflows, and costs in one timeline

PromptLayer is AI observability for developers. Trace requests, workflows, token usage, latency, costs, and failures through a single timeline and waterfall view. Follow complete execution paths across multi-step AI systems, understand where failures occur, identify slow or expensive workflow steps, and debug AI applications with the same visibility developers expect from modern software systems.

🚀 Just launched: nodal

nodal is a macOS menu bar timer that tracks your work automatically from your Git branches.

Instead of manually assigning time to tasks, nodal links your timer to the repo and branch you re working on. When you switch branches, the timer follows your workflow and records time against that task.
