We stress-tested AI spend limits under bursts and outages

Summary

Peter Olayemi and Onatunde Oladimeji stress-tested two AI spend-limit tools, LiteLLM (open-source proxy) and Revenium (commercial platform), using gpt-4o-mini with $0.05 per-customer budgets in October 2026. Configured with Redis and fail-closed settings, LiteLLM held budgets to about 2.5% overshoot, even through outages.
