Founders: do you actually know how much you're spending on AI tools each month?

below; I'm genuinely curious how everyone's handling this.

A year ago the "spend problem" was just SaaS subscription tools you signed up for, forgot about, and kept paying for. Annoying, but at least the bill was predictable.

Now there's a newer version: AI spend. One shared OpenAI or Anthropic key and a few teammates building features, and suddenly the bill tripled, and nobody's quite sure who or what caused it. It's usage-based, so it moves fast and quietly.

So I'm asking the people who'd actually know:

Subtrax - Track and control every SaaS + AI dollar you spend

Manage SaaS, budgets, approvals, and AI spend in one place. Subtrax gives finance and ops teams full visibility into every SaaS subscription and AI provider cost with approval workflows and budgets that catch overspend before it happens. Most SaaS-management tools (Zylo, Torii, BetterCloud) only serve big enterprises. Subtrax is built for SMB and mid-market teams instead, combining SaaS + AI spend in one place.
