Cloud FinOps for finance and CFO teams

What finance teams need from cloud cost

• • Verified savings outcomes — not projected, actually confirmed after execution.
• • Per-team and per-environment cost attribution for chargeback and showback.
• • Budget coverage with overspend alerts before month close, not after.
• • An audit trail of every approved action and its financial outcome.

Core use cases

• Cost attribution and tagging — per-team spend breakdown, untagged resource inventory, and a tagging action plan.
• Budget governance and overspend prevention — identify unprotected accounts, services trending over budget, and threshold recommendations.
• Savings Plans and commitment optimization — coverage gap analysis with finance-ready purchase proposals and break-even timelines.
• Weekly FinOps review — automated weekly cost brief with spend trend, top movers, and prioritized actions.

Verified savings model

Every executed action records a savings verification baseline before running and confirms actual cost reduction seven days later. Finance gets a timestamped outcome record — not an estimate — making cloud savings reportable at the same standard as any other cost-reduction initiative.
