Direct AI Spend, Finance-Grade From Day One

AI has become one of the fastest-growing lines in the technology budget, and a growing share of it is bought directly from model providers rather than through a cloud marketplace. Those direct contracts are invisible to technology-blind ERPs. The result is a governance gap: material, accelerating spend with no line on the technology P&L and no clear owner at period close.

Ternary now connects natively to Anthropic and OpenAI. Direct AI spend and token usage flow into the same governed data model as the rest of your technology portfolio, so AI can be governed with the same rigor Finance applies to real estate, headcount, and capital.

  • Anthropic, every channel - Connect Console API usage and Claude.ai Enterprise usage as separate feeds, each attributed to its own organization.
  • OpenAI API - Bring in reported costs alongside model- and token-level usage for every connected OpenAI organization.
  • One unified technology P&L for AI - Direct spend lands in the Unified AI Schema next to Claude and GPT procured through AWS Bedrock, GCP Vertex AI, and Azure AI Foundry, normalized by provider, model, version, and token type.
  • Finance-grade attribution - Allocate, show back, and charge back direct AI spend through the Billing Rules Engine. Existing Custom Labels apply automatically.
  • Budget vs. actuals for AI - Set budgets and alerts on cost or token consumption by model, provider, or cost center, and act before the invoice arrives.

For Anthropic Enterprise, and any AI purchased through AWS Bedrock, spend and usage are also automatically attributed to User Email, extending ROI accountability to the individual consumer. User-level attribution for more providers, including OpenAI, is on the way.

This is Technology Investment Intelligence applied to the most consequential spend category of the decade: judgment infrastructure that puts every AI dollar in front of the CFO, so leaders make better judgments with all the data.

Connect a provider from Admin > Integrations > New Integration, then select Anthropic or OpenAI. Once ingested, data appears in AI Observatory in the left-hand navigation and throughout Ternary.
