AI Economics Overview

The ai-economics MCP server provides 12 calculators for AI spending, energy consumption, agent verification, and revocation exposure. It calls the free piszczek.pl/tools API over MCP and returns a result, formula, interpretation, and citation-ready sentence for each calculation. Inputs are optional, defaults match the interactive calculators, and requests are stateless. Use it when evaluating model budgets, agent operating costs, proof requirements, energy use, or review capacity.

Primary Use Cases for AI Economics:
  • Compare monthly token spending across model providers
  • Estimate the fully loaded cost of an AI agent hour
  • Measure organization-wide token use in money, energy, and CO₂
  • Evaluate autonomy after evidence and validation requirements
