Usage and cost advisor
Last updated 2026-06-21
Definition
The usage and cost advisor is the advisor view of your own product-usage metering. It tells you how close you are to a plan quota, which features drive the most events, and whether usage is spiking or dropping week over week. A score and prioritized hints surface quota risk and cost drivers before they bite.
How to do this in Quri
- Make sure your workspace is metering usage through Pulse-Usage.
- Wait for the next cron pass to materialize your usage-cost report.
- Open Usage & Cost to read quota proximity, top features, and the trend.
- Act on the prioritized hints — or just ask Quri in chat.
Frequently asked
- How is quota proximity calculated?
- It compares your usage in the window against your plan quota and reports the share consumed. When you near the limit the advisor warns you early, so you can upgrade or trim usage before requests start getting blocked.
- Which surface is driving my spend?
- The report ranks features by event share, so the heaviest surfaces sit at the top. You can also ask Quri in chat — "what is driving my usage?" — and it answers from the same stored report.
