Customer-Hosted Deployment Codebeamer AI Token Usage
A token represents a unit of text processed by the large language model (LLM). Tokens are consumed for:
Input prompts sent to the model.
Cached input reused during an AI task.
Output generated by the model.
The total number of tokens consumed depends on factors such as:
The AI assistant being used.
The number of LLM calls required to complete a task.
The size of input and output text per call.
* 
Token consumption applies only to customer‑hosted Codebeamer AI. PTC‑hosted Codebeamer AI uses AI credits instead of tokens.

The following table shows an example of average token consumption per AI action for common Codebeamer AI assistants in customer-hosted deployment. These values are indicative and may vary depending on context size and usage patterns.
