About Superwise
Superwise is turning its LLM gateway into a FinOps console for model fleets
Superwise's Sentinel line has gained an observability layer in two steps: a live fleet-wide activity log of every interaction crossing the gateways, then a FinOps dashboard reporting token consumption, cache-hit rate, reasoning ratio and output-to-input ratio by provider, model and sentinel. Both are explicitly metadata-only, with prompts and responses staying inside the customer's environment.
