Your AI workforce has a payroll. Nobody's running it.
Meridian by Onaro is the FinOps system of record for AI agents — metering every token, attributing every dollar to an owner and a workflow, and proving what AI labor returns.
AI spend is invisible. Until it isn't.
AI adoption is accelerating across teams, vendors, and workflows—but cost visibility and control haven't kept up. By the time finance sees the bill, the damage is already done. Only 7% of executives can demonstrate AI ROI (KPMG 2026); 84% of organizations can't pass an agent-behavior audit (CSA 2026). The CFO question no one can answer: what did agents cost us last month — and what did we get for it?
Meter. Control. Prove.
Meridian is the FinOps system of record for AI labor—built for finance teams that need spend under management, not another dashboard.
Meter
Every token, every agent, every dollar. Meridian ingests from your model providers, LLM gateways, and platform billing — read-only — and attributes every cost to an agent, an owner, a workflow, and a business unit.
Control
Guardrails before spend compounds. Budgets by team and workflow, anomaly alerts, and policy actions that route through your existing controls — set by finance, without touching engineering's stack.
Prove
Finance-grade records, on demand. Chargeback to the GL, cost-per-outcome against the human baseline, and board-ready ROI and compliance exports.
Every AI rulebook starts with the same demand: show your records.
Nearly all of them expect an inventory of the AI systems you run — with records of how they're governed.
Financial governance, built in
Every metered dollar becomes an audit-grade record — chargeback to the GL, cost-per-outcome vs. human baseline, and audit evidence exports.
