TL;DR
- Trace AI spend at request level, not invoice level, so ownership disputes can be fixed while traffic is fresh.
- Require a canonical event contract with tenant and owner fields at the gateway boundary for every provider.
- Route missing owner metadata into forced triage, then measure correction impact every 24 hours.
- Compare provider parsing rules with parity tests so missing fields and cost math do not drift by vendor.
A practical guide for FinOps and platform engineers to implement request-level attribution.
