# The five views

> Overview, Agents, Alerts & Budgets, People, and Connectors — and the question each one answers.

Five tabs, each answering one question a finance or platform lead actually asks.

## Overview — *"What are we spending, and is anything wrong?"*

The landing view. An alert ticker across the top, a 90-day stacked trend beneath it, then provider bars and team budgets.

The trend is stacked by **spend layer**, so cloud, seats, and bespoke API usage are visually separable rather than collapsed into one number. A spike in one layer stays legible instead of being averaged away.

Lower down, provider bars show concentration — which vendor owns what share of the bill — and team budget bars show consumption against each team's monthly allowance.

## Agents — *"Which agent is misbehaving?"*

One card per agent, with its spend, its normal daily rate, and its current multiple of that rate.

This is where a runaway loop becomes obvious: an agent running at several times its median daily cost is badged as an anomaly. The multiplier that triggers it is configurable rather than fixed, because "abnormal" differs by workload.

## Alerts & Budgets — *"What should I do about it?"*

Two halves. The upper half is where you tune the rules: each team's monthly budget, the budget-warning threshold, and the agent-anomaly multiplier.

<Note>
  Alerts are **computed, not seeded**. Change a budget or a multiplier and the ticker, the KPI counts, the budget bars, and the anomaly badges all recompute immediately. Settings persist in your browser, with a reset button.
</Note>

The lower half carries **savings recommendations** — also computed rather than hardcoded. Each is derived from actual usage multiplied by the list-price delta between the model in use and a cheaper tier. A recommendation to route a summarisation workload to a mini-tier model comes with the arithmetic behind it, so it can be argued with.

## People — *"Who is this spend attributable to?"*

Every seat and every API key rolls up to a person, filterable by team. Click through for that individual's breakdown.

This is the view that ties the three layers together: the same person may hold a Copilot seat, own an API key funding an agent, and sit in a team with a cloud budget. Per-person attribution **across all three layers at once** is the part that other tooling generally does not attempt.

## Connectors — *"Where does the data come from, and can I trust it?"*

Sources grouped into three tiers by how obtainable the data is.

The tiering is deliberately honest about a real constraint: several vendors keep per-member data locked in an admin console with no API. Rather than pretending otherwise, the Connectors view names the wall and shows the import path around it.

## Theme

Light and dark, both drawn from a CVD-validated categorical palette restepped for dark surfaces. The three spend layers map to fixed palette slots, so a layer keeps its colour across every chart and both themes — the colour is part of the data encoding, not decoration.
