## Resource

This newsletter by Indy Sawhney argues that token consumption serves as the most accurate, real-time indicator of how effectively a company is integrating artificial intelligence. While many executives focus on lagging metrics like productivity gains or simple inputs like the number of licenses purchased, the author suggests that monitoring the volume of AI processing reveals the true extent of daily usage across teams. The text provides a strategic framework for enterprise leaders, encouraging them to treat tokens as a management tool rather than just a technical expense. By tracking these metrics by business unit and workflow, organizations can move past performative pilots to achieve genuine transformation. Ultimately, the source emphasizes that visibility into token data allows leaders to identify adoption gaps before they impact financial results.
