PerUnit vs Azure OpenAI
Enterprise OpenAI deployment on Azure infrastructure
Azure OpenAI gives you the same GPT models deployed on Microsoft Azure infrastructure, with enterprise compliance, SLA guarantees, VNet support, and consolidated Azure billing. What it does not give you is visibility into which customers, features, or pricing tiers are driving your AI spend. PerUnit connects your OpenAI usage to your customer list and revenue — regardless of whether you call the API directly or through Azure.
