Veqen: AI spend ledger that catches a leaked API key by its spend, usually within the hour
Cross-provider AI cost monitoring that attributes every charge to a person, customer or project, flags spend nobody made, and shuts off suspect keys.
Why it matters
It matches billed spend against what a team actually did, hour by hour, so a stolen key surfaces as unexplained spend instead of hiding inside a monthly total.
What you could build with it
A finance team at a company running several AI coding tools could use a cross-provider spend ledger to charge each team's AI bill back to its cost center and to kill orphaned keys from departed staff before the next invoice lands.
Does it hold up?
Too early to judge: the product page is detailed and the free audit needs only read-only keys, but all figures shown are illustrative and no customer case study is published yet.
