The problem: AI has quietly become one of the largest and fastest-growing line items for companies. Spend is scattered across a dozen provider consoles that each show one number at the end of the month and nothing about why it moved. There's no unified view, and no way to trace a dollar back to the customer, feature, team, or even the pull request that caused it. Which customers are unprofitable once you subtract their AI costs? Which feature is quietly burning your Anthropic budget? Is this wee

Workbase

We help B2B companies reduce churn and grow customer spending. Our product gives account managers access to data dashboards and priority checklists needed to proactively save customers and upsell them to more profitable products.

Most software engineers will tell you they spend more time fixing code than writing it, which will only become more true as AI code assistants gain adoption. Leaping autonomously root causes bugs and generates tested code fixes.
