Independent cloud cost engineering

Spend less
on every cloud.

We are the independent team enterprises bring in to cut cloud spend across any provider — surfacing waste, re-architecting for efficiency, and installing the discipline that keeps the savings.

What we do

Four levers. Compounding returns.

We work the whole stack — from the contract you signed to the query running at 3am — because the savings live everywhere.

01

Spend visibility & allocation

A single source of truth across every account and provider. We map each dollar to a team, product, and unit of value — so waste has nowhere to hide.

Cost data modelShowbackTagging
02

Rate & commitment engineering

We model your real usage and orchestrate the right blend of commitments, savings plans, and spot capacity — continuously, as your footprint shifts.

CommitmentsSpot strategyContracts
03

Architecture & rightsizing

Idle capacity, oversized instances, chatty data egress, runaway storage tiers. We re-shape the workload itself — the savings that don't expire.

04

FinOps governance

We embed the rituals, guardrails, and anomaly alerts that keep spend flat as you grow — then hand the keys to your team. No lock-in to us.

The method

A 90-day path from
baseline to discipline.

/01

Baseline

Two weeks. We ingest every account, normalize the data, and put a defensible number on exactly where your money goes.

/02

Quick wins

We ship the no-regret savings first — idle resources, orphaned storage, obvious rate moves. The engagement pays for itself early.

/03

Re-architect

Alongside your engineers, we re-shape the workloads that drive the bill — the structural savings that survive every traffic spike.

/04

Govern & hand off

Guardrails, dashboards, and rituals go live. Your team owns the discipline. We stay on call, never in the way.

Phase 01 · Weeks 1–2
Find every dollar before we touch a single one.
We connect read-only to all of your accounts and build one normalized cost model. You get a baseline you can defend to your board — and we get the map.

About us

Independent by design.

We started MultiCloud Optimization because the people advising you on cloud spend were usually paid by the cloud.

No rebates

We take zero commissions or kickbacks from any provider. Our only incentive is your bill going down.

No lock-in

We install the discipline, then hand it to your team. A great engagement ends with you not needing us.

Engineers first

Savings that slow your roadmap aren't savings. We pair with your teams, never around them.

Defensible numbers

Every claim ties back to your own usage data. Nothing you can't take to your board.

We are a small, senior team of cloud architects, FinOps practitioners, and former platform leaders who spent years watching enterprises overpay for infrastructure they barely understood.

Most cost “optimization” in the market is really just procurement in disguise — reselling commitments, chasing rebates, and leaving the hard engineering untouched. We do the opposite: we go into the workload, fix what actually drives the bill, and leave your team able to keep the savings without us.

We work across every major provider and stay deliberately provider-agnostic, so the recommendation you get is the one that's right for you — not the one that pays us best.
