The Linux Foundation’s Tokenomics Foundation—focused on standardizing how companies measure and manage AI token costs and connect them to business value—officially launches today, backed by about 30 initial members. Managing how contracts expose token-level telemetry takes no new literacy, but gains you more visibility into AI value. Add to that the pace of AI change, the increasing cardinality of model options, the rapidly rising costs with projects going into production leading to AI value questions. The outputs of the Tokenomics Foundation will always be focused on vendor-agnostic best practices to solve the tokenomics challenge.
