FinOps for AWS & GCP

Why are my cloud costs out of control — and how do I get them back?

We give you clear visibility into where your AWS and GCP money goes, cut the waste, and put guardrails in place so the bill stays predictable. Fixed monthly price tied to your MRR — never a cut of your savings.

What is FinOps?

Financial accountability for cloud spend — without slowing engineering down

Cloud bills grow silently: idle resources, over-provisioned instances, forgotten storage. FinOps makes that spend visible and gives engineering, finance and leadership a shared, data-backed way to trade off speed, cost and quality — so you spend on what moves the business, not on waste.

Cost visibility

  • See exactly where every franc of cloud spend goes, in near real time.

Optimization

  • Rightsizing, reserved and spot capacity, and automated scaling that pays for itself.

Alignment

  • Engineering, finance and leadership working from one cost picture.

Governance

  • Budgets, alerts and guardrails that stop the next surprise bill before it lands.
What we do

Three levers that bring your cloud bill under control

Each engagement starts with visibility, then turns findings into implemented, measurable savings.

Cost analysis & audit

A full read of your AWS and GCP spend to surface waste, idle resources and the biggest optimization opportunities — ranked by what you save.

  • Spend broken down by service and team
  • Resource utilization and idle-resource analysis
  • Waste and over-provisioning identified
  • Benchmarked against comparable workloads

Monitoring & alerting

Dashboards and automated alerts so a cost spike is caught in hours, not on next month's invoice.

  • Real-time cost dashboards
  • Budget alerts and anomaly detection
  • Spend attributed to teams and projects
  • Reporting your finance team can actually use

Optimization, implemented

We don't just advise — we make the changes with you: rightsizing, reserved and spot capacity, storage tiering and autoscaling, tested before they ship.

  • Resource rightsizing
  • Reserved and spot capacity planning
  • Autoscaling and storage optimization
  • Changes validated before deployment
Transparent, MRR-based pricing

Frequently asked questions

How is the pricing calculated based on MRR?

Your fee is a fixed monthly amount tied to your Monthly Recurring Revenue, so it scales with your business and stays predictable. We deliberately avoid taking a percentage of savings — every franc you save stays yours, and our incentive is to keep your bill low, not to inflate the measured savings.

Which cloud platforms do you support?

We specialize in AWS and Google Cloud Platform, covering compute, storage, networking, databases and serverless. We also advise on multi-cloud setups where that's where your spend lives.

How quickly will I see cost savings?

Most clients see the first savings within the first month from quick wins — rightsizing idle resources and removing obvious waste. Larger structural optimizations, such as reserved-capacity planning and architectural changes, typically land over the following 2–3 months.

Do you need access to our cloud accounts?

Analysis and monitoring run on read-only access. For implementing changes we either guide your team or work under limited, time-bound access with your approval. Security and compliance come first, always.
