Package an AI Application, Publish It, Get Paid for It
An AI application is only a product once someone can order it, get it provisioned, and be billed for it. Everything before that is a demo.
Hybr® treats AI applications and token consumption the way it already treats every other service in your catalog — the same offers, plans, SKUs, entitlements and invoices that have run Microsoft CSP billing for service providers since 2016.
From application package to catalog listing
Creating an application package walks through the same steps as any other sellable service:
- Basic info — what the application is, its category and version.
- Publishing — publish to the service catalog, or hide it from tenant infrastructure views while you test.
- Offer and SKU — the commercial shape: what a customer is buying and how it is priced.
- Deploy or import — stand up a new instance, or bring an application you already run under management.
Once published, an AI application behaves like any other catalog item: a tenant orders it from the marketplace, it provisions, and consumption starts rating.
Metering that survives an audit
Token and application consumption is attributed per tenant and per model, then rated against the price list that applies to that customer — including their currency, their reseller tier and any negotiated rate. The result is an invoice line, not a CSV someone has to reconcile.
- Per-tenant and per-model spend, visible before the invoice run rather than after it.
- Budget ceilings and quotas, so a runaway workload is a stopped workload rather than a write-off.
- Margin visible per service, because cost and price are both in the system.
- Multi-currency pricing, reseller tiers and white-labelled self-service portals, applied to AI exactly as to everything else.
One invoice, every service
This is the part most AI platforms bolt on afterwards, and it is where the difference shows. AI usage in Hybr® lands in the same place as your Microsoft CSP subscriptions, your VMware and Azure Local consumption, and your Kubernetes and GPU workloads.
Your customer receives one invoice. Your finance team reconciles one system. Your margin is calculated once, across everything.
Frequently asked questions
Do we have to deploy applications through Hybr®?
No. Applications can be deployed through Hybr® or imported if you already run them, then managed and billed the same way either route.
Can we bill on tokens, on seats, on a flat rate, or a mix?
All of those. The offer and SKU structure is the same one used for CSP subscriptions and cloud consumption, so recurring, consumption-based and hybrid pricing models are all supported.
Where does the consumption data come from?
From the registered LLM Gateway for model usage, and from the application instances themselves for application-level metrics.
Can resellers sell AI services under their own brand?
Yes. Reseller tiers, per-tier pricing and white-labelling apply to AI services with no separate configuration.
