Did you know that some companies have seen AI bills jump from a few thousand dollars to millions… just because of token-based pricing?
I read recently that several teams using AI tools at scale suddenly started getting massive invoices. Not because they used “more AI than expected”, but because nobody really understood how fast token usage grows when you automate things with agents.
Now I keep thinking about this. We used to have subscriptions. You pay $20 or $200 a month and that’s it.
Do you think we’ll end up with a new kind of subscription model again — or is token-based pricing here to stay?
