Connect OpenAI Usage to Cloptima
6 min readUpdated June 2026
Choose Your Adoption Path
Teams can start with telemetry for direct OpenAI calls or route selected apps through Cloptima's governed gateway when real-time policy enforcement is required.
Create Gateway Access
Create a Cloptima virtual key for the app and bind it to a policy that controls approved models, budget ceilings, and environment-level usage.
Add Attribution
Attach team, app, environment, user, session, and run metadata so spend can be mapped to owners and product workflows.
Validate Reporting
Compare the first day of traffic by provider, model, app, and team. Investigate unattributed usage before moving more production traffic.
