Explores how AWS, Azure, and GCP handle generative AI cost attribution differently. AWS offers Application Inference Profiles for native per-application tagging in Bedrock. Azure requires creating separate OpenAI resources per team with manual tagging. GCP relies on labels and BigQuery exports with project-level isolation. None provide complete visibility into token-level usage, model versions, or efficiency metrics. Third-party FinOps platforms bridge these gaps by combining billing data with application and business context for actionable insights.
