Cloud Cost
Management
Cloud infrastructure costs are one of the largest and most unpredictable expenses for SaaS companies. When you have infrastructure spend completely embedded in financial workflows, teams can act faster, improve profitability, and support more informed, scalable growth.
The Problem
Why FinOps remains
administrative overhead
As cloud investments grow, finance teams struggle to manage high-variability expenses with disconnected workflows, leading to reactive, labor-intensive cloud cost management that’s misaligned with financial reporting.
Data stays in cloud provider portals
Finance teams must extract and interpret usage details from billing exports and cost explorers, isolated from none of which are designed for accounting andor saas financial metrics.
Tech stack sprawl creates overhead
Managing cloud spend across third-party platforms and internal BI tools drives up infrastructure complexity, increases dependency on it, and delays close cycles.
No financial mapping to revenue or customers
Legacy systems lack native logic to attribute usage-based costs to products, customers, or cost centers, leaving teams blind to true unit economics.
Spreadsheets dominate cost allocation
Without automation, allocations rely on static rules and manual tagging reviews that introduce inconsistencies and fail to scale with businessinfrastructure growth.
Delayed and incomplete insights
Finalized cloud invoices often arrive late, preventing timely analysis and creating a lag between operational activity and financial visibility.
