AI features are moving cost of revenue in ways most portfolio companies are not forecasting. Inference scales with usage. Model choices shift margins overnight. And the board deck still shows cloud as one line.

This virtual workshop is built for VC platform and portfolio operations teams. Ed Barrow, CEO of Cloud Capital, walks through what is actually happening to AI infrastructure costs at growth-stage software companies, drawing on survey data from 100 CFOs, and how investors can spot margin risk across a portfolio before it shows up in the numbers.

What You'll Learn

  • Where AI costs hide: why compute and data storage overrun forecasts more often than tokens do.
  • What it does to gross margin: how usage-driven inference changes unit economics as AI adoption grows.
  • The questions to ask portfolio CFOs: a short diagnostic for spotting AI cost risk early.
  • What good looks like: how leading companies attribute, forecast and govern AI spend.
