CloudZero
Connect AI and cloud spend to products, customers, revenue, and operating decisions.
About CloudZero
CloudZero gives finance, IT, and engineering one place to understand AI and cloud economics. It combines cost and usage data from AI platforms, cloud providers, and SaaS tools, then assigns that spend to the products, teams, customers, and activities responsible for it. Teams can inspect model, provider, and prompt-pattern costs; connect infrastructure expense to revenue and unit economics; and measure cost to serve by customer or product line. The subscription covers unlimited cost sources, users, dimensions, and dashboards. It also includes streaming telemetry, Explorer, hourly cost detail, optimization recommendations, anomaly detection, budgets, forecasts, workflow notifications, multi-year retention, MCP integration, RBAC, organization management, and CZ Academy. CloudZero sells a single subscription with every capability included. The quote depends on the scale and complexity of the buyer's AI or cloud environment, which makes a sales conversation necessary to learn the actual cost.
