Introducing AI Budgets: A Policy You Can Watch Work

Oct 20, 2026 By Ravi Yadalam In Harness
AI Budgets turns an AI cost policy into a limit customers can watch hold in real time, so overspend gets caught within days instead of surfacing on next month's invoice. With AI Budgets, the Cost Management Agent turns your AI cost policy from a document everyone signed once and forgot into a limit you can see working. ‍ In our last post, we showed why 73% of organizations have an AI cost policy, but only 13% can tell whether it's working.
