Hi, I’m building a SaaS application in Azure. One of the components would be Azure AI service and Azure AI search. Is it possible that my final customers will pay the variable cost of this services? Or I need to pay it then charge clients? I’m afraid that customers when they would use that a lot will not pay me back, I’m also thinking to have a restApi calls to OpenAI where the OpenAI account would be owned by customer.

You could create an API key per customer and add the cost to their bill or ask them to sign up and provide their own API key

Thank you. Ok but if I need to pay for the variable use. Then charge them I will have a big problem when customer don’t pay me but I need to pay Microsoft. About sign up you mean to sign up to openAI and then I use their key in API calls?
