Aoineco Ledger — AI Agent Financial Tracking Engine

Track detailed AI agent expenses, revenues, budgets, and ROI with per-agent attribution and alerts for efficient micro-budget financial management.

Description

Financial tracking engine built for AI agents operating on extreme budgets. Tracks every API call, gas fee, and revenue stream with per-agent cost attribution. Native support for the $7 Bootstrap Protocol.

Rebuilt from agentledger (Node.js) into Python with major enhancements for multi-agent squads and micro-budget operations.

Core metric: Intelligence per Dollar (IPD) — how many operations you get per cent spent.

Problem

AI agents spend money (API calls, gas fees, subscriptions) but rarely track it. When you're running a 9-agent squad on a $7 seed budget, every fraction of a cent matters. You need:

• Real-time visibility into burn rate and runway
• Per-agent cost attribution (who's spending what?)
• Budget alerts BEFORE you overspend
• Revenue tracking to measure actual ROI

Features

Feature	Description
Transaction Logging	Log expenses, revenue, API costs, gas fees with one-liner methods
$7 Bootstrap Metrics	Seed tracking, ROI%, runway days, daily burn rate, IPD
Per-Agent Cost Attribution	Track spending by squad member (oracle, blue-sound, etc.)
Budget Alerts	Set limits per category/period — warns at 80%, blocks at 100%
Category System	Pre-configured for AI ops: API/LLM, Gas/Blockchain, Revenue/Gig, etc.
CSV/JSON Export	Full transaction export for tax, audit, or analysis
JSONL Storage	Append-only transaction log — fast, corruption-resistant
Period Filtering	Query by today, this-week, this-month, this-year, or all

Quick Start

python

from ledger_engine import AoinecoLedger

ledger = AoinecoLedger()

# Log API cost
ledger.log_api_cost(0.0042, "Google", "gemini-3-flash", tokens_used=150000, agent="oracle")

# Log gas fee
ledger.log_gas(0.0003, chain="base", tx_hash="0xabc123", agent="blue-sound")

# Log revenue
ledger.log_revenue(0.01, "MoltLaunch", "Tier-1 Intel Report", category="Revenue/Gig")

# Set budget
ledger.set_budget("API/LLM", limit=3.00, period="daily")

# Check $7 Bootstrap metrics
metrics = ledger.get_bootstrap_metrics()
# → Seed: $7.00, Burn: $0.02/day, Runway: 300 days, IPD: 257.5 ops/$
