About

Built by a small team
who got tired of opaque AI billing.

We started Blue Box Data because every AI bill we saw across our previous companies was at least 25% too high — and nobody could tell us why. So we built the tool we wished we had.

Our story

From spreadsheet to gateway.

It started as a Google Sheet — a place to compare invoices from OpenAI, Anthropic, and Google week over week. Within a few months, we noticed three things every team kept hitting:

  • Provider rates moved more than markets do, but no one had time to chase savings.
  • Routing across providers required gluey, brittle code that broke at 3 AM.
  • Compliance and observability were always the last sprint, never the first.

So we built one piece of software that solved all three. That is Blue Box Data.

Principles

What we believe.

Honest pricing

Public per-token rates. No volume blackmail. No surprise overages. Refundable balance.

Open standards

OpenAI-compatible everywhere. We write specs, not lock-in. Export your data anytime.

Operational excellence

Multi-region, multi-cloud, multi-provider. Boring, predictable infra so you can be exciting and unpredictable.

Customer-funded growth

We grow on revenue, not vibes. That keeps us focused on what actually saves you money.
