The agent ledger

2026-09-08 · draft

I run coding agents on a $200/month plan and count what the same tokens would cost at API rates. That number, not the subscription, is the cost of the work. Against it I count items that shipped, items that waited on a human, and items that produced nothing.

TODO(Andrey): the September ledger is generated by brain-sync from the vault’s AI ROI page. Wire the export here and write two paragraphs of reading, in your own words.
