FinOps & Cloud Cost Management
Make every euro of cloud spend count. We find the waste, optimise the architecture, and build the financial discipline that keeps cloud costs predictable.
Cloud spend under control
Cloud promises flexibility, but without proper governance, costs spiral quickly. Unused resources, over-provisioned instances, missing savings plans, and poor tagging hygiene can easily add 30–50% to your cloud bill.
We implement the FinOps framework: bringing together engineering, finance, and business to make real-time, data-driven decisions about cloud spending. The result is full cost visibility, accountable teams, and optimised architecture.
Our engagements typically deliver 20–40% cloud cost savings in the first 90 days — and build the processes to keep costs optimised as you scale.
Cost visibility & allocation
Tagging strategy, cost allocation by team/product, and dashboards so every team owns their spend.
Waste elimination
Idle resources, orphaned storage, over-provisioned instances — we find and eliminate waste across your entire cloud estate.
Reserved instances & savings plans
Commitment-based discounts analysis and purchasing strategy to cut on-demand costs by up to 60%.
Architecture optimisation
Right-sizing compute, switching to spot/preemptible instances, and storage tier optimisation for long-term savings.
Savings in 90 days
We follow the FinOps framework's inform → optimise → operate cycle. First you see the full picture, then we optimise, then we build lasting processes.
Cost audit (week 1–2)
Full analysis of your current cloud spend: where the money goes, largest cost drivers, and quick-win opportunities.
Quick wins (week 3–4)
Immediate actions: shut down unused resources, fix storage tiers, apply reserved instance commitments. Savings visible within 30 days.
Structural optimisation (month 2–3)
Architecture changes, auto-scaling tuning, spot instance adoption, and savings plan strategy for sustained reduction.
FinOps governance setup
Cost dashboards, budget alerts, tagging policies, and a monthly review cadence so savings are maintained as you grow.
35% cloud cost reduction for a scale-up
A SaaS company was spending €45k/month on AWS with no cost visibility. Teams had no idea which services cost what. We implemented a tagging strategy, migrated stateless workloads to spot instances, right-sized 60 EC2 instances, and introduced reserved instance commitments.
Result: monthly spend dropped to €29k — a 35% reduction — with no performance degradation. The company reinvested the savings into product development.
We calculate beyond the cloud
Sladká kalkulačka is our own SaaS that helps Czech home bakers price ingredients, calculate orders and generate PDF quotes. A reminder that we ship products end-to-end — not just advise on them.
