CloudBridgeHow it works
From a console export to cost per token
No API keys for OpenAI or Anthropic: the export their consoles give you is enough.
-
Download the export
OpenAI: Usage → Export. Anthropic: Usage or Cost → Export. DeepSeek: Usage → Download.
-
Import it
Add the account with a name and no credentials, then click Import on its row. Importing a month again replaces it.
-
Read the Models page
Each model's cost and change, its input, output and cache tokens, and what it costs per million tokens.
Sources
The model bills it reads
Token-metered rows from any source show up on the Models page; the model is the one the bill names.
| Provider | How | What it adds |
|---|---|---|
| OpenAI | Usage export | Cost or token usage, per project and model |
| Anthropic (Claude) | Usage or cost export | Cost or token usage, per workspace and model |
| DeepSeek | Balance API, usage download | Prepaid balance; per-day, per-model spend |
| Alibaba Cloud Model Studio | Bill details export | Model Studio (百炼) costs per model |
| Volcengine Ark | Bill details export | Ark (火山方舟) costs per endpoint and token type |
The Models page
Token economics, per model
The stat row shows AI spend, total tokens, the blended cost per million tokens and the cache share. Below it, each model's cost and change, its input, output and cache tokens and its share of model spend, and a chart of tokens per day.
- Flags a model whose cache reads are under 5% of its input side: input price paid for what could be cache price.
- Flags one model taking more than 70% of model spend.
- Tells a rise in unit price apart from a rise in usage.
- Points out a model billed without token metering, whose unit cost cannot be computed.
Keep watch
Know when model spend jumps
The cost growth anomaly rule flags a source and service whose daily spend runs above its trailing 7-day baseline for two days running. The balance floor rule warns before a prepaid balance like DeepSeek's runs out. CloudBridge posts both from the menu bar.
- Model spend sits in the same ledger as AWS, Alibaba Cloud and Cloudflare, so one Overview covers it all.
- Original currencies are kept beside the converted amount; missing exchange rates are reported, not assumed.
- The ledger is a DuckDB file on your disk, with read-only SQL on the Query page.
FAQ
Questions people ask
- Do I need to give CloudBridge my OpenAI or Anthropic API key?
- No. OpenAI and Anthropic are import-only: add the account with a name and no credentials, then import the cost or usage export downloaded from the provider's console.
- What if my export has tokens but no cost?
- Token-only exports stay usage records. CloudBridge counts their tokens on the Models page but does not turn them into an estimated bill.
- Which model providers does it read?
- OpenAI and Anthropic exports, DeepSeek's balance API and usage download, Alibaba Cloud Model Studio through the Alibaba Cloud bill, and Volcengine Ark through the Volcengine bill export.
- Can it warn me when model spend jumps?
- Yes. The cost growth anomaly rule flags daily spend above its trailing 7-day baseline for consecutive days, and the balance floor rule warns when a prepaid balance such as DeepSeek's runs low.
