CostObserverTHE FREEDOM TO $ Build_
Without Blowing Your
Cloud Budget Without a Security
Blind Spot Without Slowing Down
Your Team
You're Busy Shipping
Not Auditing Bills
Cloud costs aren't top of mind when shipping features. Manual checks, internal scripts or just ignoring it altogether.
Until a $3K surprise forces you to drop everything and investigate!
Cost Spikes Have
No Context
Billing tools show a $3K spike on compute. But what caused it? Traffic surge? Misconfigured autoscaler? Compromised compute instance?
Traditional tools show the cost. CostObserver shows the cause.
Connected Intelligence:
Cost + Security + Resources
SecFinOps in action: Billing data, security signals and resource behaviour unified in one view.
AI connects the dots: that $3K spike is an exposed instance with critical vulnerabilities, running 24*7.
Fix What Bleeds Cash
Ignore the Rest
Issues ranked by financial impact: $920 exposed bucket, $450 unattached volumes, $30 idle server.
No more alert fatigue, just actionable priorities.

Common Questions
Everything you need to know before connecting your cloud account
$ Why do cost spikes need a security lens? ›
Cost spikes are not always waste. They can be a symptom of a security problem such as an overly permissive access role, a publicly exposed storage bucket, or a compromised instance running crypto miners. A cost tool sees the spend. It does not see the cause. SecFinOps connects spend with security signals and ownership so teams can trace the root cause and prioritise the right fix.
$ Does CostObserver use AI? ›
Yes. CostObserver uses AI to connect billing data, security signals, and resource behaviour. It identifies patterns, links cost spikes to their root cause, and ranks issues by financial impact so teams know what to fix first.
$ How is this different from cloud native billing tools or FinOps platforms? ›
Cloud native billing tools such as AWS Cost Explorer, Azure Cost Management, and GCP Billing Reports summarise spend and trends. FinOps platforms like Apptio Cloudability, Kubecost, and CloudHealth focus on optimisation, chargeback, and governance. CostObserver adds security context and resource behaviour, so a spend spike links to the specific resource, its exposure, and recent changes. That turns a cost alert into a clear root cause and a ranked fix list.
$ Which clouds do you support? ›
AWS only in public beta. GCP and Azure are on the roadmap. Sign up and we will notify you when they are available.
$ How does CostObserver access and store my data? ›
We use read only access to billing data and lightweight resource metadata such as instance type, region, and configuration. We never write, modify, or delete anything in your cloud account, and we do not have access to your application code, databases, or workloads. Your data is logically isolated at the database level per organisation and is never sold, shared, or used to train models. Full details at costobserver.com/security.
$ Are you SOC 2 or ISO 27001 certified? ›
Not yet. We are in public beta and working toward SOC 2 Type II and ISO 27001. We follow security best practices from day one, including encryption in transit and at rest, least privilege access, and isolated environments. Read more at costobserver.com/security.
$ Is the beta free? ›
Yes. The beta is fully free and does not require a credit card.
