FinOps

Control the economics of cloud and AI.

TekLid turns Azure and AI spend into something finance and engineering read the same way — attributed, forecast and optimized, without turning every deployment into a budget negotiation.

  • Spend attributed to teams and products
  • Optimization ranked by saving and effort
  • AI usage costed per use case

What we put in place

Cost as an architectural property, not a monthly surprise.

Reporting, optimization and governance that hold once the engagement ends.

Visibility & attribution

Make every euro traceable to something a person is accountable for.

  • Billing export and data model
  • Tagging strategy
  • Showback and chargeback
  • Power BI reporting
  • Anomaly alerting

Optimization

Reduce the bill without reducing what the platform can do.

  • Rightsizing
  • Reservations and savings plans
  • Storage lifecycle policies
  • Idle resource removal
  • Architecture efficiency

AI FinOps

The cost discipline most AI programmes discover far too late.

  • Model and token cost analysis
  • Per-use-case unit economics
  • Prompt and context efficiency
  • Model routing and tiering
  • Capacity planning

Governance

Guardrails that keep spend from drifting back after the cleanup.

  • Budgets and policy guardrails
  • Forecasting
  • Cost review cadence
  • Engineering accountability
  • Cost-aware architecture standards

Outcomes

What good cost governance looks like.

  1. Spend that has an owner

    Every euro maps to a team, product or environment instead of an untagged resource group.

  2. Savings that survive

    Optimizations are encoded as policy and architecture standards, so costs do not quietly drift back.

  3. Forecasts finance can use

    Committed, variable and AI spend are modelled separately, with the assumptions written down.

  4. AI you can budget

    Each assistant carries a measured cost per conversation, per user and per month.

Deliverables

What you receive.

A reporting model, a ranked backlog and an operating cadence — all of it yours to run.

  • Cost data model and reporting
  • Tagging and attribution standard
  • Ranked optimization backlog
  • Reservation and commitment plan
  • AI unit economics model
  • Monthly FinOps operating cadence
