FinOps optimization that cuts cloud waste without the guesswork.
Explain cloud cost movement, identify governed optimization candidates, and route owner-approved actions with expected savings and risk.
Nothing is finalized until a human approves it.
Where the time and money actually go.
Cloud bills are complex, ownership tags are incomplete, teams receive generic recommendations, and savings compete with reliability and engineering priorities.
Cloud engineers, service owners, finance and procurement
Trigger to act: Cloud spend is above plan, unit economics are worsening, commitments are underused, or leadership wants accountable cost ownership.
The result you can model before you sign.
Illustrative only: $500,000 monthly cloud spend × 0.5% incremental realized saving = $2,500 monthly saving. Do not count recommendations until billing data confirms realization.
The outcome, plainly: Explain cloud cost movement, identify governed optimization candidates, and route owner-approved actions with expected savings and risk.
Inputs in. A cited, review-ready result out. Your expert decides.
An Optimization engine + approval copilot. Every material fact is grounded in an allowed source and returned with its identifier, with no invented data.
Deterministic optimization solver or constrained ranking model; the LLM explains options but does not own the objective; GPT-5.6 Terra or Claude Sonnet 4.6 for exception handling and natural-language interaction. OR-Tools or commercial solver when needed; constraint test suite.

AI-Native, not autonomous. Judgment stays with your people.
The machine does the work; the human’s role narrows to the one thing that matters, judgment. That constraint is what makes it safe to deploy.
Service owners approve every resource change, reservation/commitment, shutdown, or architecture decision; reliability guardrails are mandatory.
A scorecard, not a demo. We baseline what breaks in production.
Every deployment ships with an evaluation suite. These are the numbers we baseline before launch and monitor after.
The category is crowded. Most of it isn’t built for your workflow.
Fixed-scope, tuned to your systems and rules, grounded in your data, with the human gate and audit trail built in from day one. A price you own, not a subscription you rent.
It plugs into the stack you already run.
No rip-and-replace. Access is scoped to the minimum data necessary, isolated per tenant, and fully logged.
Transparent by design. The build price buys the workflow and the proof.
A fixed implementation fee plus a monthly bill that scales with volume and governance. No hidden seats.

Optimization jobs, market/external data, warehouse compute and approval workflow.
Planning assumptions, not vendor quotations. Your Cloud billing APIs and other platform licenses are separate and owned by you. Figures confirmed during scoping.
“His vast knowledge of technologies and a natural problem-solving mindset consistently lead us through complex challenges with clarity and confidence.”
Questions serious buyers ask.
Does the AI act on its own?
No. Service owners approve every resource change, reservation/commitment, shutdown, or architecture decision; reliability guardrails are mandatory. The system drafts and recommends; a human approves every consequential action. Explicitly excluded: no autonomous resource shutdown or commitment purchase; no recommendation that ignores performance/security; no booked saving before realization.
How do you stop it inventing facts?
Every material claim is grounded in an allowed source record and returned with its source identifier. The system separates observed facts, model inference, and missing information, and routes to a human whenever confidence is low, evidence conflicts, or an adverse outcome is possible.
What does it cost to run each month?
A usage bill of roughly $1,150 to $9,100 per month (optimization jobs, market/external data, warehouse compute and approval workflow), plus a $2,800 per month managed retainer for evaluation, monitoring and maintenance. Your existing platform licenses are separate and already yours. Exact figures are confirmed during scoping.
Do we need a ChatGPT or Claude subscription?
No consumer ChatGPT or Claude subscription is required for the production workflow. You need an approved API/cloud billing account. Workspace seats are optional for internal prototyping and administrator access.
How is this different from Apptio Cloudability?
Tools like Apptio Cloudability, CloudHealth, and CloudZero are broad platforms you adapt to. This is a fixed-scope implementation tuned to your systems and rules, grounded in your data, with the human gate and audit trail built in, and a transparent price instead of a seat subscription.
How long until it is live, and how do we prove it works?
We baseline “Realized savings” first, then measure against that baseline. You see the scorecard before expanding scope: the evaluation suite ships with the system, not as an afterthought.
Bring your real numbers. Leave with a fixed-scope plan.
A 30-minute engineering-led working session, no slideware. You leave with a sized opportunity estimate, a fixed-scope pilot plan, and the integration & human-review path mapped.
