One expensive AI workload. One proven decision.

The AI Cost Review turns your most expensive AI workload into an evidence-backed decision: hold, optimize or migrate. Nothing in production changes while we measure.

How it works

Three stages. Your production stays untouched.

  1. Stage 1

    Baseline

    We map your provider invoices, price versions, usage shape, cache meters, latency, errors and who owns quality.

    You get: A cost and risk baseline

  2. Stage 2

    Evidence

    We build a set of your own representative cases and compare eligible routes against your current model, without touching production.

    You get: A paired evaluation report

  3. Stage 3

    Decision

    We state hold, optimize or migrate, with the projected economics, exclusions, rollout gates and rollback owner.

    You get: A decision package for engineering and finance

What you receive

Everything a decision needs.

  • A provider and model cost map
  • Usage attributed to features and workloads
  • A shortlist of routes, with what was excluded and why
  • A reusable evaluation suite that stays yours
  • Quality, latency, error and cost compared side by side
  • A migration, canary and rollback plan
  • Projected, observed and reconciled savings kept separate
  • A one-page decision brief

Our promise

A true answer, not a sales pitch.

We never promise a saving before measuring it. "Hold" and "not enough evidence yet" are valid results, and a review that ends there is still complete.

We test only alternatives that support what your workload needs, against quality evidence you own, and we keep production routes exactly as they are.

Founding partner programme

Built with our first ten customers.

First 3 partners

Free

One workload, up to 20 advisory hours over 15 business days. You fund your own provider calls, under a hard cap you approve.

Next 7 partners

$1,500

The same review, fully refundable in cash: start GIMBIX, or let us miss the guarantee, and every dollar comes back. How.

After the review

A managed pilot

Shadow traffic, an approved canary, monitoring and invoice reconciliation on one workload, typically $7,500–15,000, scoped once the review shows the effort.

Then

The platform

GIMBIX Cloud or the Local Sentinel, paid only from savings we prove. Pricing.

Founding prices are introductory and will change after the first ten customers. Taxes, travel and custom integrations are outside the fee unless agreed in writing.

Two ways to pay nothing

The review pays for itself, or it is free.

You start using GIMBIX

Full cash refund

Start GIMBIX Cloud or the Local Sentinel within 60 days of the review. After your first 30 days on it, we refund the whole review fee to the card or account you paid from. Not a credit, not a discount: your money back.

We do not find enough

Full cash refund

If the review does not find savings, proven on your own cases, that would pay back the fee within 12 months, we refund it in full. "Hold" is still an honest answer, and it costs you nothing.

Refunds are paid within 14 days of qualifying, once per company. The review ends with a signed receipt of what was measured, so either side can check whether the guarantee was met.

A strong fit

Who the review is for.

  • A real production AI feature with recurring provider spend
  • One repetitive workload worth optimizing
  • A named engineering owner and a financial stakeholder
  • Representative inputs and someone who decides what a good answer is
  • Access to provider usage and invoices
  • Permission to run a reversible evaluation

Your data

Metadata first, secrets never.

To start we only need basic facts: the workload, your providers and models, a spend band and a decision date. Prompts, outputs, invoices and keys never travel by email, chat or this form. If the review goes ahead, we agree a secure channel first.
