AI Spend Console by Rippling - Track your AI spend and connect it to business outcomes
by•
AI Spend Console gives Finance and Engineering leaders one place to track AI spend across tools (such as Claude and Cursor) and connect it to business outcomes. Break costs down by vendor, model, or employee, then connect spend to GitHub output data like pull request volume and the # of code revisions. You can get started for free–no Rippling subscription required.

Super cool!
@annacy_sampas Thanks for the support, Annacy!
This is incredible - I'm on a bizops team and we noticed people were blowing through tokens without any real or obvious ROI...
This solves all our problems
@kimiloluwa We hope you like it! The ROI is the stickler -- how do I show that I've gotten ROI through higher quality work? I even generated a dashboard that even answers the question, are people doing high quality work better, or smaller tasks faster?
@kimiloluwa so happy to hear that! Thanks for supporting our launch!
I'm so excited that AI Spend Console is officially live. It's been so fun working on this with @kevinmason @lkroll @aliciawarrenhossein and the rest of the team. Congrats everyone!
Lots of great AI launches from Rippling this year, but this one feels special. It tackles a problem we're all navigating: how to spend on AI efficiently. Getting a shared source of truth for AI spend, connected to how it actually affects productivity, is so valuable. Proud of what everyone built here!
Wow! This is super exciting! Is Rippling already using this internally? Has it influenced any vendor spend decisions?
@quinn_knoblock1 Yes, Rippling is! It has already. We've already cut back our spend significantly and plan to keep using the tool to help us track spend and usage patterns.
@quinn_knoblock1 Rippling loves to use our own products. We have some exciting products that will be released later this year that are based on tools that we had to build ourselves to solve problems like this.
First version is how we're using our Data Cloud products to answer AI spend! So we built this AI Spend Console to tie the products up together in a simple use case.
Love seeing products that solve operational complexity instead of adding to it.
juat curious, which module tends to deliver the fastest ROI for new customers: HR, IT, payroll, or spend management?
@abod_rehman Can I say them all? It depends what's most pressing for your business. A lot of our customers start on Payroll.
@rukhsar_amjad Hi! I think you posted your comment twice. Just responded in the other thread!
Wow what an amazing launch!! Can I integrate with Claude? Would love to be able to track spend there.
@sam_resnick Thanks for the support, Sam! Yes, you can integrate with Claude. We also integrate with OpenAI and Cursor.
Congrats on the launch! 🚀 This looks like a really useful addition for finance teams.
I was curious, how does AI Spend Console handle approval workflows or policy exceptions? For example, can it understand company specific spending policies and flag or approve requests accordingly?
@harish_mehta Hi! Yes. Enforcing policies is included in AI Gateway. Once you start a free trial, you can join the waitlist.
Very excited to see this launch! We set out to build something that wasn't just a typical dashboard, but a cool dashboard. We didn't want you to just see what was happening, but learn about patterns and get recommendations on what to do instead.
Since we started building this, I've used it to check my own usage, my team's usage, and company-wide trends. When something stood out, I could just ask Rippling AI "where did you get that information?" or "what led you to that insight?" and dig right in. Honestly, the best part is how fun it is to see the responses come back.
Thanks to the team @kevinmason @rachel_cantor3 @lkroll and the rest of the team for being such great collaborators!
