Everything you need to know about ViewLayer — how it works, what it tracks, and how to get your team set up.
ViewLayer is an AI spend management platform for businesses. It gives you full visibility into how much your team spends on AI tools — across every platform, every employee, every department.
Think of it like an expense dashboard built specifically for AI. You set budgets, monitor usage in real time, and get reports that show not just what your team spent, but what they built with it.
Link the AI services your team uses — OpenAI, Anthropic, Google AI, Cursor, GitHub Copilot, and more. ViewLayer pulls in usage data automatically.
Define monthly spending limits per employee or department. Add model restrictions, work-hour policies, and auto-downgrade rules to keep costs in check.
Track spend in real time from your dashboard. Get alerts when budgets are close to limits. See ROI reports that show what your team is actually producing with AI.
ViewLayer integrates with all major AI platforms your team may be using.
See exactly how much each person on your team is spending on AI, broken down by platform and model.
Aggregate spend by department — engineering, marketing, legal — to understand where AI dollars go.
Compare costs across models. Is GPT-4o more cost-effective than Claude Opus for your use case?
Visual indicators showing how close each employee and department is to their spending limit.
Spot trends like late-night usage, declining adoption, or sudden spikes in a department.
Our "What They Built" feature auto-categorizes what employees produce with AI — code, research, content, and more.
ViewLayer gives you granular control over AI spending across your organization.
Generate downloadable reports in PDF or CSV format. Schedule them monthly or pull them on demand.
