Fa 1157 track organization resource consuption

[maacaro]

🎯 Main Goal

Track and enforce conversation time limits by organization based on their subscription tier to ensure fair usage, prevent abuse, and enable tier-based monetization.

---

📊 Overview

This branch implements a comprehensive resource consumption tracking and enforcement system that monitors how much conversation time each organization uses and enforces limits based on their subscription tier (Free, Basic, Professional, Enterprise).

Key Metrics Tracked

• Monthly conversation time — Total minutes/hours of AI conversations per organization

• Per-session conversation time — Duration of individual conversation sessions

• Active conversation count — Number of ongoing conversations

• Usage period — Monthly billing cycles with automatic reset

---

🔑 Core Purpose

Problem Being Solved

1. Uncontrolled resource usage — Organizations on free/lower tiers consuming unlimited AI resources

2. No monetization mechanism — No differentiation between tiers

3. Abuse prevention — No way to stop excessive usage

4. Fair resource allocation — Heavy users on free tier get same resources as paying customers

Solution Implemented

1. Tier-based limits — Each subscription tier has defined limits

2. Real-time enforcement — Limits checked before processing each request

3. Automatic tracking — Conversation duration tracked in background

4. Monthly reset — Usage resets automatically at billing cycle

5. Stripe integration — Subscription updates automatically adjust limits

1. backend/subscription_tiers.py (NEW - 301 lines)

Purpose: Central configuration for all subscription tiers

Content Example:

SUBSCRIPTION_TIERS = {
    "free": {
        "conversation_time_minutes_per_month": 60,  # 1 hour
        "max_conversation_duration_minutes": 30,    # 30 min per session
        "max_users": 1,
    },
    "basic": {
        "conversation_time_minutes_per_month": 300,  # 5 hours
        "max_conversation_duration_minutes": 60,
        "max_users": 3,
    },
    "professional": {
        "conversation_time_minutes_per_month": 1200,  # 20 hours
        "max_conversation_duration_minutes": 120,
        "max_users": 10,
    },
    "enterprise": {
        "conversation_time_minutes_per_month": -1,  # Unlimited
        "max_conversation_duration_minutes": -1,
        "max_users": -1,
    }
}

Key Functions

• get_tier_config(tier_name) — Fetch tier settings

• get_conversation_limits(tier_name) — Extract limit values

• is_unlimited_tier(tier_name) — Detect unlimited tiers

• format_time_remaining(seconds) — Format time for user display

• calculate_usage_percentage(used, limit) — Compute percentage used

✅ Why important: Serves as the single source of truth for all tier configurations.

---

2. backend/shared/decorators.py (NEW - 161 lines)

Purpose: Request-level enforcement of limits before processing.

@require_conversation_limits

Behavior:

• Validates organization’s monthly usage before allowing a request.

• Returns a 429 if exceeded.

Example response:

{
  "error": "Organization monthly conversation limit exceeded",
  "tier": "basic",
  "used_minutes": 305,
  "limit_minutes": 300,
  "resets_at": "2025-02-01T00:00:00Z",
  "upgrade_url": "/subscription-management"
}

@check_session_limits

Behavior:

• Validates active session duration.

• Prevents over-long conversations from continuing.

✅ Why important: Conserves compute and enforces fair use.

---

3. backend/shared/cosmo_db.py (341 lines added)

Purpose: Core database logic for usage tracking.

Key Functions

• initialize_organization_usage(org_id, tier_name="free")
  Creates or updates the organization’s usage doc with tier limits.

• check_organization_limits(org_id)
  Validates whether usage is within monthly limits.

• update_organization_usage(org_id, additional_seconds, conversation_id)
  Increments monthly usage totals.

• get_organization_usage_stats(org_id)
  Returns a detailed summary of usage, limits, and status.

✅ Why important: Powers the tracking and limit enforcement logic.

---

4. backend/utils.py (252 lines added)

Purpose: Conversation-level tracking utilities.

Key additions:

• calculate_conversation_duration()

• update_conversation_timestamps()

• check_conversation_session_limit()

• track_conversation_usage()

✅ Why important: Bridges individual conversations with organization-level usage.

---

5. backend/app.py (222 lines added)

Purpose: Integrates tracking logic into APIs and Stripe webhooks.

Highlights

• Added decorators @require_conversation_limits and @check_session_limits to /stream_chatgpt

• Integrated Stripe webhooks:

  • customer.subscription.created → Initialize usage

  • customer.subscription.updated → Update tier

  • customer.subscription.deleted → Downgrade to Free

• New endpoint:
  GET /api/organizations/<org_id>/usage → Returns usage summary

✅ Why important: Enables automated, tier-based enforcement via Stripe.

---

🔄 How It Works

Flow 1: New Subscription

1. Stripe event → customer.subscription.created

2. Tier is extracted → initialize_organization_usage() runs

3. Org gets usage limits applied automatically

Flow 2: Conversation Request (Within Limits)

1. Request hits /stream_chatgpt

2. Monthly and session limit checks pass

3. Conversation proceeds normally

4. Timestamps updated at completion

Flow 3: Conversation Request (Limits Exceeded)

1. Limit check fails

2. Returns 429 response

3. User is prompted to upgrade
