What do paid, enabled and used mean?
In two lines #
Three statuses read for each AI feature. The three statuses are independent and are never merged. A feature can be paid for without being enabled, enabled without being used, used without having been decided.
The three statuses
- Paid: at least one seat or subscription that includes it is billed to the company.
- Enabled: the feature is available to at least one user, through an administrator setting or a vendor default.
- Used: at least one user has used it over the last twenty-eight days, according to the vendor's aggregated usage reports.
The steps #
- Open “The register”: the “Status” column carries “paid”, “enabled”, “used”.
- Check the “Features” layer: the counters at the top say how many features are in place, paid, enabled, used.
- “usage not read”: the vendor does not expose usage for this feature, or the reading has not carried it yet.
- Open the fact sheet of a line (“Open”, at the end of the line): the “In your company” block repeats its statuses.
On the Arvenne example #
On the Arvenne example, ChatGPT is enabled and used without being paid for by the company: it was connected by employees.
What Ojja does not do #
Usage is read per tool, never per person, and is never reported for a group of fewer than ten people.
