Cloud Cost Management
CostOptix is a cost management and allocation platform for cloud infrastructure, Kubernetes, bare metal, and AI coding tools. It consolidates provider bills and usage data into a shared ledger, assigning costs to teams based on sources such as cloud tags, namespaces, hosts, services, resource groups, and accounts. Shared cluster and machine costs can be apportioned by workload usage, while duplicate billing is avoided when a connected cluster is already included in a cloud account’s bill. The platform tracks spending against historical usage, identifies anomalies and potential savings, and directs alerts to the channels and teams responsible for the costs. It can surface rightsizing opportunities, idle resources, orphaned infrastructure, and cloud commitment gaps across AWS, Azure, and Google Cloud. Teams can set budgets, receive projected threshold warnings, review proposed budgets for sources without one, and record decisions to defer or complete savings work. Subsequent bills can be compared with earlier periods to assess whether a reported saving occurred. CostOptix also provides team and leadership reports, host costs broken down by service and process group, and AI coding agent usage broken down by person, model, and repository. Users can divide spending by measures such as orders, customers, or requests, with revenue data available through Stripe. Cost information can be queried in plain English through CostOptix or via Claude Code, claude.ai, and MCP clients. With administrator approval, connected agents can hold a saving or accept a budget. The service receives cost and usage data from connected sources, with cloud, cluster, host, and AI costs processed daily and certain team bills finalized at month end.
