The Token Toll: AI Code Gen Costs

AI is powerful, but it's not free. We analyzed the "token spend" of developers using AI to build standard SaaS boilerplates.

The Findings

• Initial Setup: ~200k tokens for basic structure and auth.


• CRUD Generation: ~150k tokens per entity.


• Refining Styles: ~300k tokens to get the UI "just right".
