The FinOps agent that lives where your team works

Proactive cost intelligence delivered to Slack and Microsoft Teams. Daily digests, anomaly alerts, natural language queries, and one-click actions — no dashboard required.

Up and running in three steps

1

Connect Slack or Teams

3

Get proactive insights

The bot starts delivering daily digests, anomaly alerts, and actionable recommendations automatically.

Everything your team needs, right in chat

Six capabilities that turn Slack and Teams into a FinOps command center.

Daily cost digest

Every morning, your team gets a briefing with total spend, top cost movers, active anomalies, and budget status — all before standup.

Natural language queries

Ask any cost question in plain English. "Why did our S3 costs spike?" or "Show me EC2 spend by region." 18 AI tools power every answer.

One-click remediation

Recommendations arrive with Apply, Dismiss, and Snooze buttons. No context switching — act on savings opportunities right from the chat.

Weekly executive summary

An AI-generated leadership report every Monday: total spend, week-over-week trends, savings captured, and top risks — ready to forward to the CTO.

Anomaly alerts

Real-time notifications when spend spikes beyond normal variance. Each alert includes the service, region, actual vs baseline cost, and AI root-cause analysis.

Channel routing

Scope notifications per team. DevOps gets infra alerts, finance gets budget warnings, leadership gets the weekly rollup — each in their own channel.

Full parity across Slack and Teams

No second-class citizens. Every feature works identically on both platforms.

Approval workflows in chat

When someone applies a recommendation, it doesn't execute immediately. The bot posts an approval request to designated approvers. One click to approve, reject, or request more context.

  • Configurable approver roles per team or account
  • Full audit trail of who requested and who approved
  • Auto-expiry for stale requests
  • Works with your existing RBAC configuration
