Cut the cloud bill without slowing a single release.
Tagging, rightsizing, commitments and GPU governance, plus the habits that stop the waste coming back.
One call with a senior engineer. A straight answer on what it would take.

Where you are. Where you’ll be.
You need this if
- Your cloud bill grows faster than revenue
- Nobody can explain last month's spike
- AI experiments are running on GPUs nobody remembers starting
What changes for your business
- Immediate savings from waste found in the first weeks
- Cost per customer, product or AI feature you can actually see
- GPU and inference spend governed before it scales
What we hand over
- Cost allocation and tagging strategy
- Rightsizing, scheduling and commitment optimization
- GPU and AI inference cost governance
- FinOps operating model, dashboards and team training
What it is
FinOps is the operating practice that makes engineering, finance and product teams jointly accountable for cloud spend. It combines visibility of who spends what, budgets and forecasts, and continuous optimization, now including GPU and AI inference costs. The aim is spending that tracks value, not one-off cuts.
Most cost-cutting is a one-off sprint that decays within two quarters. We do the quick wins first (idle resources, oversized instances, missing commitments, orphaned storage) then install the system: cost allocation every team can see, budgets with alerts, unit economics per product or customer, and governance for GPU and inference spend. Engineering keeps its speed. Finance gets a forecast it can trust.

How it runs
- 01
Diagnose
Typically 2–4 weeksWe map the problem, your data and your systems, and agree the one number that defines success.
- 02
Prove
Typically 4–8 weeksA working pilot on your real data, measured against that number. Not a slide demo.
- 03
Ship
Scoped to the outcomeProduction build with security, monitoring, cost controls and documentation included, not upsold.
- 04
Run
Ongoing, optionalWe operate what we built against clear service levels, or train your team to. Your call. No lock-in.
Questions you’ll ask
- How much can we expect to save?
- It depends on the estate, and we won't promise a percentage before looking. Flexera estimates 29% of IaaS and PaaS spend is wasted across the market. The diagnostic gives you your own number, itemized, before you commit to anything.
- Why do cost-cutting projects lose their savings?
- Because a one-off cleanup doesn't change how spend is created. Without allocation, budgets, alerts and owners, waste returns within a couple of quarters. The quick wins pay for the engagement; the operating system keeps the savings.
- Can you control GPU and AI inference costs?
- Yes. GPU clusters left running, oversized models and unmetered inference are the fastest-growing source of waste. We tag AI workloads, set budgets per use case, schedule idle capacity off and measure cost per task or per query.
