title: "Token Consumption Tracking"
---

As you use your agents and deploy them across your organisation, Airia helps you track usage across models and agents by centralising token consumption to enable you to better understand the cost of running AI in your environment.

To help explain how invoicing, billing and token consumption are managed across the platform, we have a short video guide to take you through Billing Management.

Through our [Token Consumption feed](/feeds/token-consumption), you can view it all consumption across models in a single pane of glass.

## Track usage of Airia Models and Balance

When using an Airia’s API key to deploy models to Agents, the Token Consumption feed can help you manage both your total spend and Airia balance used.  You may be wondering, what is the difference between the two?

Total Spend

- The exact amount charged for the execution within an Agent.
- For example, if your Agent contains GPT-4o and claude-3-opus-20240229, two new rows will populate to the consumption table that will report the total amount for each execution in the Agent.

Balanced Used

- The balanced used will report when you have accumulated ≥\$00.01.
- For example, if your Agent contained a “Total Amount” charge of \$00.001, your balance will read \$00.00.  If your next execution is \$00.009 then your “Balance Used” will read \$00.01.
