Cost Tracking & Developer Logs
Cost Tracking & Developer Logs
To assist developers in auditing API expenditures, AMC WebUI includes a strict-precision pricing tracker.
1. Strict Precision Cost Model
- No Crude Estimations: Avoids misleading fixed token rates that fail on multimodal inputs or long-context discount brackets.
- Evidence-Backed Display: Specific dollar costs are shown only when recorded metadata matches Google’s official pricing formulas:
- Distinguishes between prompt tokens, cached tokens, and reasoning/output tokens.
- Accounts for modal pricing (text vs audio vs image).
- Queries lacking precise metadata cleanly show
—instead of inaccurate approximations.
2. Developer Logs Panel
Open the Logs Panel from the sidebar footer:
- Real-time API Tracing: Captures HTTP status codes, network latency, and time-to-first-token (TTFT).
- Token Analytics: Visual waterfall breakdown of input and output token counts per turn.
- Error Diagnostics: View full JSON payload responses from upstream providers when encountering 4xx/5xx status codes.
