Everyone talks about what AI agents can do. Almost nobody tells you what they cost. I run agents in production. The bill is the part of this business that surprised me most, and the numbers in here are the ones I wish someone had shown me before I started. Swipe through. Slide 7 is the one that actually saved us money. If you're building with agents - do you track cost per task, or cost per successful task? Most teams only track the first one. Tell me yours. #AIAgents #AIAutomation #BuildInPublic #AIEngineering #TechFounder #AIcosts #MachineLearning #StartupLife #NairobiTech #AgenticAI

Uber's CTO spent $1,200 in a single two-hour session. By April, the company's entire 2026 AI budget was gone. Here's the part nobody covers: they didn't cut access. They engineered the cost down instead - cache TTLs, token compaction, killing tool sprawl, batching calls into scripts. Six months later: usage up 10x, spend flat since April, and more than 70% of all pull requests now written by agents. The framework on slide 4 is free to steal. Six terms, multiplied. Run it against your own stack this week and you'll find where you're bleeding. If your AI bill is climbing - which term would you attack first? . . . #AIAgents #AIEngineering #AIAutomation #BuildInPublic #AIcosts #AgenticAI #DeveloperTools #TechLeadership #SoftwareEngineering #Uber #AITools #StartupLife #CTO #NairobiTech #TechAfrica
