I’m building Monetise, a business gateway for AI builders.
Building apps is easy now. Monetising them isn’t.
Monetise helps solo founders and small teams turn usage into revenue, connecting payments, AI, and performance insights in one system that just works.
My goal here is to share the full journey:
• what we’re building
• what’s breaking
• what we’re learning about monetising AI products
Follow along if you’re building in public, experimenting with AI, or trying to turn side-projects into sustainable products.
Instant activation. Continuous optimisation.
We have Cash Flow for businesses.
What if autonomous systems need Unit Flow?
Today we measure:
• Cost per token
• Cost per request
• Cost per model
But autonomous systems don't consume resources in deterministic ways.
They retry.
They replan.
They switch models.
They call tools.
The economics emerge during execution.
We're exploring Unit Flow as a way to understand how cost, value and risk move through an autonomous workflow.
Still early.
But I suspect "cost per token" will eventually feel as incomplete as measuring a business using only revenue.
@HarisPutratama@joni_vrbt Absolutely, that gets you much closer.
My current thinking is that token tracking solves the "what happened?" problem.
The next question is whether it solves the "should this workflow continue?" problem.
That's the part I'm still exploring.
