About Tokenminning
Tokenminning is a community project for understanding, measuring, and governing LLM token usage in production systems.
The Tokenminning Constitution is the engineering law that moves token efficiency from aspiration into architecture — CI/CD pipelines, hard API ceilings, and immutable metering ledgers.
Why this exists
AI costs are dominated by token usage, yet most teams lack a shared vocabulary and reference for how that usage actually works. Tokenminning aims to be a practical, community-driven resource that anyone can read, share, and contribute to.
What we publish
- The Constitution — non-negotiable architectural primitives for production AI stacks
- Concepts & guides — practical knowledge on token economics, model selection, and cost attribution
- Press — media coverage, including Tokenminning in The New York Times
Start with Concepts for deeper dives into token economics.
