FinOps for AI

As GenAI adoption accelerates, lack of cost visibility is the prime driver of AI overspend. From an Executive perspective, understanding AI costs is no longer optional, it is foundational to business strategy. Over the past two years, our Cloud FinOps team evolved AI cost reporting from a simple spreadsheet tracking COGS into a single pane of glass for GenAI spend across models, providers, and commitments.

This session explores how we deliver AI cost visibility at every altitude, from a 30,000-foot executive view down to token-level consumption, serving Finance, business leaders, and engineering teams alike. By making AI costs transparent, leadership can align AI investments to business outcomes, Finance can understand margin impact, and engineers can make informed architectural and optimization decisions.

Attendees will learn how comprehensive AI cost visibility enables smarter tradeoffs, guides long-term AI strategy, and empowers engineers to optimize with the same rigor they apply to performance.
