# Usage and spend

> Track organization-wide costs, token usage, and consumption trends across all agents

The Consumption view in AI Studio gives billing administrators and finance teams a detailed breakdown of usage and spend month-by-month across all agents. Track costs by agent type, model, and service to understand where your organization's AI budget is going.

<Info>
  The Consumption view is only available to [organization
  admins](https://support.writer.com).

You can switch between a cost view and an activity view, which shows the number of tokens used for each agent type. See below for more details about the data available in the [cost view](#cost-view) and the [activity view](#activity-view).

## Cost view

The cost view shows the following information:

* **Monthly usage-based spend**: The total cost of usage for the month, with a comparison to the previous month.
* **Spend by agent type**: A day-by-day breakdown of the cost of usage by agent type (API, Framework, and No-Code).
* **Spend breakdown**:
  * **LLM models**: The usage cost for each LLM model.
  * **Others**: The usage cost for all other services, such as Knowledge Graph hosting, web access, and optical character recognition (OCR).

## Activity view

The activity view shows the following information:

* **Monthly token usage**: The total number of tokens used for the month, with a comparison to the previous month.
* **Top users by token usage**: The top five users with the most token usage.
* **Top agents by token usage**: The top five agents with the most token usage.
* **Token usage by agent type**: A day-by-day breakdown of the token usage by agent type (API, Framework, and No-Code).
* **Token usage by model**: The total number of tokens used for each model.
