I built MarginDash so teams can stop over-budget AI requests before they’re sent.

  What it does:
  - Set budgets at company, customer, and feature level
  - SDK checks budget first and blocks requests that exceed limits
  - Your app still calls OpenAI/Anthropic/etc directly (no proxy/gateway)
  - Prompts and outputs go directly between your app and the AI API provider
  - MarginDash only receives usage metadata (token counts)
  - TypeScript and Python SDKs
Flow: Checks limit you set for customer/feature -> sends AI call if within that limit -> records cost

I’d love feedback on any missing enforcement scope you’d need in production
