AI inference costs per agentic workflow will increase more than fivefold through 2028 according to Gartner, Inc., a business and technology insights company.
As AI products evolve from assistive features to multistep execution, product leaders face a new margin challenge with falling model prices subsidizing more complex workflows and escalating total AI costs. As a result, inference cost management has become a top priority for product leaders.
“Product leaders cannot rely on more efficient token economics to rationalize AI costs,” said Will Sommer, Sr. Director Analyst.“Each successive generation of AI capability will necessitate more, and often more expensive, tokens. There is no reliable, economical one-size-fits-all model on the horizon. Producing competitive AI products will require developing and maintaining complex multimodel ecosystems.”
Gartner has identified three fundamental trends driving token economics:
- Foundational model cost economics are rapidly improving.
- Improved AI efficiency is unlocking the deployment of more...
