Monthly
Spend review
A recurring review of your AI spend with variance notes against the post-audit baseline.
The FinOps Retainer
Your AI costs, watched by someone whose job is lowering them.
For teams past their first audit that lack internal FinOps. Audit graduates get first-month priority.
What the retainer covers
Active
Anomaly alerts
Alerts wired to your channels when a trace or a feature's cost moves outside its expected band.
Timely
Price-change briefings
A short note within a week of a model-price change, on what it means for your stack — not a vendor press release.
One a month
One automation
One new automation or equivalent improvement per month, scoped to your stack and your unit economics.
Mechanics
Three-month minimum, cancel any time after
Slack or email access, a monthly 60-minute review call, and a quarterly exec report you can drop into the board deck. Your existing observability stays yours — I wrap judgment around the $29–$79/mo tools you already run, and don't resell software margins.
Who it's for
Teams that want the discipline to stick
Teams that have run an audit and want the discipline to stick — not a new dashboard to ignore. If you haven't audited yet, start there.
Working price
$2,000–$4,000 / month
Three-month minimum. (Working launch copy — confirm scope and rate before public promotion.)
