Tokenomics - How to Drive AI Value with the Help of FinOps
Diginomica, Wednesday, November 4th, 2026
A Harness Unscripted panel discussed using FinOps and tokenomics to tie AI token spending to measurable business value.
Diginomica reports on a panel at the Harness Unscripted event in London on balancing tokenomics and FinOps as agentic AI costs grow.
Linde-Marie Ferreira, head of FinOps at Absa Group, said FinOps is becoming a system for measuring value and that AI business cases must be tracked, citing an AI-assisted software migration where savings were measured.
Alfonso Parra Garcia of SpaceXAI said token spend is an input, not ROI, and should be mapped to initiatives, projects or teams rather than individual users.
He warned that many engineering teams lack baselines for measuring AI productivity gains.
