THE SIGNALCOST DECISION LOOP
From captured signal to accountable AI economics.
See the operating system at work: the same evidence moves from capture to context, authorization, and a receipt your teams can explain.
6 capture paths
AI work enters as private proof.
Browser, Beacon, endpoint, MCP, SDK, and OpenTelemetry sources send one minimized evidence contract.

PayloadMinimized evidence
THE NEXT MOVE
Move from usage totals to business value.
Token counts show volume. SignalCost shows what the spend was for, what should happen next, and whether it paid off.
See the work
Capture AI activity and connect it to the people, tools, and business purpose behind it.
Decide what deserves budget
Apply policy, budget, privacy, and quality rules before spend compounds.
Prove what paid off
Reconcile cost with outcome evidence before expanding to more teams, tools, or locations.
Capture coverage
Discovery comes first. Credentials are optional.
Every provider moves through a clear state so teams know what SignalCost can prove now and what an integration would add later.
Discovered automatically from captured traffic.
No credentials required.
Usage, source, employee, model, and estimated cost are visible.
Enough evidence to report.
Optional credentials are added for billing, routing, or enrichment.
Account access stays separate.
Manual setup is a secondary action.
Choose Add billing or routing integration only when the workspace needs invoices, exact account reconciliation, provider routing, model catalogs, or enrichment.
See provider coverageOne capture layer
Start with the path your team already uses.
One privacy-aware capture layer spans browser, desktop, agents, applications, and Beacon. Each source feeds the same business-purpose, policy, and cost decision loop.
Guided browser deployment
Stage one pilot with the signed helper or prepare a validated browser-policy preview for an IT-managed fleet. SignalCost shows store, activation, and external prerequisites before rollout.
Beacon One and Cloud
Capture local or routed inference traffic, then send minimized evidence for coverage, policy, and cost reporting.
Endpoint source
Bring configured AI apps, IDEs, CLIs, and local model activity into the same coverage view.
MCP, SDK, and OTel
Bring structured agent actions and instrumented application events into the same canonical capture contract.
Beacon keeps the local decision path available.
See the capture walkthroughDefault Cloud evidence is content-minimized. Local policy and classification remain available when the customer needs a local boundary.
Industry control loops
The same capture layer, grounded in the work your business actually does.
Choose one or more workflow packs when generic AI categories are not enough. Each pack adds business entities, policy defaults, connectors, and outcome measures without weakening global privacy or tenant controls.
Professional Services + Accounting

Engineering + Software
Repositories, tickets, pull requests, incidents, and releasesProtect source code, govern coding agents, compare model routes, and measure cost per shipped change.
Manufacturing Operations
Plants, work orders, maintenance, quality, and productionAttach AI use to operational work, require review for production changes, and measure throughput, downtime, scrap, and cost per unit.
Insurance: Home Insurance
Policies, properties, claims, inspections, and customer responseUse private proof and human review for coverage, fraud, eligibility, pricing, and other customer-impacting decisions.
Cloud + Beacon One
Start in Cloud. Add local capture where the location needs it.
SignalCost Cloud is the hosted workspace for capture coverage, policy, reporting, quotas, and cost control. Beacon One extends the same capture and decision model into a location when local review, local receipts, or optional enforcement matters.
Show the employee, app, office Beacon, provider, and credential behind the request.
Classify the request into a plain business area such as support, finance, sales, research, or personal use.
Decide whether the work fits company rules before the provider is called.
Choose the approved service, model, local option, or Beacon path that fits the work.
Show estimated and actual spend so finance can explain what the AI usage was for.
SignalCost Cloud
SignalCost Cloud
One hosted workspace for AI capture, provider coverage, rules, reporting, and cost.Create a workspace, install capture, review provider coverage, add optional integrations, set business rules, and manage AI spend without requiring Beacon hardware.
- Workspace signup, billing, legal acceptance, and guided setup.
- Review detected and observed providers, then connect billing, invoice, model, or routing integrations when account enrichment is needed.
- Plain-English policies, quotas, Prompt Firewall, agent monitors, and tool governance.
- Spend, traffic, forecasts, anomalies, reports, audit, ROI, and Savings Autopilot.
SignalCost Beacon
SignalCost Beacon
The small office device that helps you manage employee AI use before it turns into cost, risk, or customer-data exposure.Reserve Beacon when you want simple local AI controls for an office, branch, or customer site without asking employees to change how they work.
- Device identity, activation-code enrollment, and company/site binding.
- Native browser capture installer and managed source catalog for endpoint, SDK, MCP, and OpenTelemetry adapters.
- Local dashboard for activation, capture coverage, provider evidence, live traffic, health, settings, support, updates, and test decisions.
- Local rule checks with optional SignalCost classifier help when more confidence is useful.
Start without a project
A clear first week, with help when you need it.
Start with Cloud, stage one guided pilot or download an IT policy package, and review the first provider record. IT teams can optionally authorize identity sync and direct pilot push with status and rollback. Coverage is scored only across enrolled managed sources, with unmanaged gaps stated plainly.
