Agents and Money SF w/ Chargebee + Mastra

Your agent works. It coordinates, reasons, and retrieves — perhaps even wonderfully so. Then you’re hit by a $67,000 API bill.

Token prices are most certainly falling. Yet agent costs are not. Complex agents, the ones calling tools and looping back on themselves, burn through 5–20x more tokens than a simple chain.

Most teams discover that pressing implication late into production. Few address it methodically as a design and optimization problem from the start.

Join Chargebee and Mastra for an evening of hands-on insight and conversation on building and scaling money-aware, radically efficient, no less powerful agents.
