How the roll-up gate works
How the AI Unit Economics & Token-Shock Exposure gate works
This tool grades each AI workflow's cost per outcome, and whether its contract terms cap a growth month. It prices each workflow from your own inputs and bands it on dollars per outcome, at $0.50 and $2.00. A gate that can only make a workflow's verdict worse then reads two contract terms. The portfolio verdict is its worst workflow, never the average.
The 6 workflows
A workflow with no usage cap AND an uncapped true-up reads TOKEN SHOCK however low its cost per outcome: an unpriced growth month becomes an unbounded bill. Both conditions must hold. Either a usage cap or a capped true-up clears the gate.
Why: Six workflows priced from their own inputs. Three read PREDICTABLE and Contract review reads DRIFTING at $1.215 per outcome. Sales email drafts ($0.14 per outcome) and Lead enrichment ($0.01) sit inside the PREDICTABLE cost range, but neither has a usage cap or a capped true-up, so the gate reads both TOKEN SHOCK. The portfolio takes its worst workflow and reads TOKEN SHOCK EXPOSURE.
Pennies per outcome didn’t save them. The gate reads the contract, not the cost: with no usage cap and an uncapped true-up, a workflow reads TOKEN SHOCK at any price. The portfolio verdict is the worst workflow, and where a workflow is gated, the fix first row says what clears it. Every figure comes from your own inputs - no per-token price or multiplier is assumed. Not a forecast of what your AI vendor will actually charge; verify against your contract's real usage-cap and true-up terms.
