Your team's AI budget is ultimately signed off by someone reasoning from exactly this kind of report — a rare look at how the approver actually evaluates the request.

This is the budget-approval side rather than the routing side, so call it adjacent: it is useful mainly for engineers who must justify cost-cutting routing work to a CFO who thinks in ROI, not tokens.
