Proactive Spend Controls: budgets enforced before the money moves.
Shift-left cost checks and budget guardrails in the pull request, for teams who find out what a change cost only when the invoice arrives.
The problem
Cost is discovered on the invoice
The engineer never sees the number
Monthly reviews come too late
What we do
The Edge Report tells you what your merges cost. This track makes sure it does not happen again.
What you get
Cost Guardrails live in your pipelines
A policy set your team owns
An engineering runbook
The merge-replay baseline
Engagement investment and procurement
Investment. Scope and price are agreed per engagement rather than published, because the work is sized to your estimate volume and cloud footprint. Tell us what you are running and we will come back with a scoped quote. Ask for a quote.
AWS funding. Eligible engagements may qualify for AWS funding programs including the Migration Acceleration Program, which now covers generative AI and modernization work. We assess eligibility and manage the funding request with your AWS account team.
Azure and GCP. Equivalent partner funding assessed per engagement.
Procurement. Available through AWS Marketplace, including private offers and milestone billing.
Why teams pick us
The one argument no consultancy can make: the bill is known before the work starts.
The people in the readout are the people who do the work. No bench.
You leave with a running FinOps platform, not a deck. Six months of Standard included.
This track starts free, and you keep the platform.
The two-week Edge assessment costs nothing, the Edge Report is yours, and every assessment includes 6 months of SKYXOPS Standard, with or without us afterwards. Many engagements qualify for AWS partner funding, which can make the whole track free; we check eligibility during the assessment.
Read-only. Scoped. Nothing leaves your account.
We request a read-only role: IAM ReadOnlyAccess on AWS, Reader on Azure, Viewer on GCP. Pipeline access is separate, optional, and read-only.
We analyze billing data, resource metadata, and pipeline configuration. We do not access application data, customer data, or production workloads. No production data leaves your environment.
Access is revocable at any time and terminates at the end of the engagement.
What this is not
No sales team on the readout call
A senior engineer presents the findings. Nobody else joins.
No commitment required
No contract, and nothing that quietly converts to paid.
The report is yours regardless
Whatever you decide afterwards, you keep it.
If there is nothing worth doing, we will tell you
We would rather say so in week two than sell you an engagement.
Questions
Early engagements include a US-based fintech running $3M a year across AWS and Azure.
