We have not launched yet. Can you still model costs?

Yes, from projected usage instead of history. We model realistic scenarios, including light, typical, and heavy users, so your launch pricing is grounded before the first bill arrives. Then the model updates with real data once you are live.

Is this a spreadsheet or something that stays current?

Your choice. Some buyers want a rigorous one-time analysis; others want a small live dashboard that tracks cost per user continuously. We tell you what your number honestly covers and build to that.

What do you need access to?

Your AI provider usage data, your codebase or a walkthrough of where AI is called, and your current pricing. Read access is enough; we are analyzing, not rewiring, unless you ask us to fix what we find.

Find out what AI actually costs you per user, and price with confidence

The Build Studio at CEOism calculates what AI actually costs your business per user, so you can price with confidence, and you name the price for the analysis. If you do not know your AI cost per user, you do not know your margin: a generous free tier or a flat subscription can quietly lose money on your heaviest users while you celebrate growth. We trace every AI call in your product, attach real per-call costs, model your usage patterns, and hand you the numbers: cost per user, per tier, per feature, and what your pricing must be for the margin you want. We run this discipline across our own 47 live apps, because a two-person studio cannot afford vague costs.

Service 046 · three takes

The films we shoot for this one

These are the scripts we actually film, published openly. Plain text is spoken out loud. Anything in the marked panels is for the camera or the screen behind us and is never read aloud. Three takes of the same service, so we can pick the one that fits where the film is going. The first is open below. Open the other two to read them.

Take one · the empathy cutFilm 046 · 30 to 40 seconds

You are guessing at your margin

Opens inside the worry this service answers, and takes its time. Made for someone who already has this problem in mind, so it fits this page and it fits an audience that already knows us.

Direction · do not readOpen on camera.

You do not actually know what one customer costs you to serve. The figure you say out loud when people ask is really a feeling.

It is hard to admit that out loud, especially if you are the one who set the pricing.

AI cost pricing for your business is us working out the real per-user number, so your price stops being a guess and starts being a decision.

ceoism.com/studio. Bring the messy version.

Take two · the direct cutFilm 046 · 15 to 25 seconds

Priced on a feeling

Opens on a claim or a visible result, with the offer inside the first ten seconds. Built to be shot with a screen recording playing behind you. Made for the feed and for paid placement, where nobody was looking for us.

Screen · do not readScreen: a cost map by feature, then cost per user broken out by pricing tier.

Most founders price on a feeling. AI cost pricing for your business maps every AI cost in your product, gives you cost per user and per tier from real usage, and shows the math behind each recommendation.

Screen · do not readScreen: the margin sheet recalculating as usage numbers are changed live.

There are 100 services in the studio. Bring the messy numbers.

Take three · the standing offerFilm 046 · 15 to 30 seconds

The real number per user

Names the service in the first breath instead of hiding it behind a hook, then offers to build it. It puts the barriers on the floor: you name the price, and not knowing how any of it works is our job rather than yours. It also makes the promise most people never get, that we stay with the thing until it is real. Made for someone who has been carrying this idea around for a long time and needs to hear that somebody will actually take it on.

AI cost pricing for your business. What one user actually costs you to serve, worked out from your real usage rather than a feeling.

We would sit with your numbers, messy as they are, and show the math behind every recommendation.

Asking is free, and you decide what the work is worth.

We do not hand over a spreadsheet and vanish. Talk to us when you are ready.
