Budgets & Spend is in Early Access and may not be available to all organizations. Contact your account representative to request access.
One home for every spending decision
Spend Management brings budgeting, enforcement, and reporting together in a single area of Airia. Set spending limits for your whole company, fine-tune them for individual projects, users, and gateways, and watch spend add up in real time — all without leaving one workspace.
The new, consolidated experience
If you used Airia previously, you may have set limits in two separate places — gateway budgets and project budgets. Spend Management is the next evolution of those features, unified into one consistent experience.Everything you could do with gateway and project budgets you can still do here — plus company-wide and per-user limits, shared spending controls, alerts, analytics, and audit history. Instead of configuring limits in different parts of the product with different behaviors, you now manage them all from Spend Management with one set of concepts.
What’s in Spend Management
You’ll find Spend Management in the left navigation. It contains four areas:Budget Policies
Set the default spending limits, enforcement rules, and alerts that apply across your organization — at the Company, Project, User, and Gateway level.
Custom Budgets
Override your default policies for specific projects, users, or gateways that need a higher or lower limit than the default.
Spend Analytics
See how much of each budget has been used, what’s resetting soon, and who or what is spending the most.
Usage Reports
Break down usage by project, agent, tool, data source, user, LLM provider, and model.
How the pieces fit together
Set your defaults in Budget Policies
Define Daily, Weekly, and Monthly limits and choose how strictly they’re enforced for your company and for the default project, user, and gateway.
Make exceptions with Custom Budgets
When a specific project, user, or gateway needs a different limit, create a Custom Budget that overrides the default — no need to change your organization-wide policy.
Stay informed with alerts and banners
Set alert thresholds so the right people are emailed as spend climbs, and let your users see in-app warnings before they hit a limit.
Who can use Budgets & Spend
Access to Spend Management is controlled by roles and permissions. The relevant permission is Budgets (“Manage budgets settings”), which grants the ability to browse budget settings and to manage them.| Role | View budgets & analytics | Create & edit budgets | View audit history |

You can also grant the Budgets permission to a custom role. Anyone without it won’t see Spend Management — but a budget enforced on them still applies. See What your users experience for what spending under a budget looks like for someone who isn’t an administrator.
