For CTOs
Know what every squad and their agents spend. Without hiring a FinOps lead.
Per-squad, per-agent allocation across cloud and AI, pushed where your engineers already work. Enough context to build cost-aware decisions, without adding another approval gate.
THE GAP
You can't build a cost culture on a number you don't have
Cloud and AI spend is growing +XX% year over year. The bill lands as one opaque line per provider, and every month:
Nobody knows what each squad, or the agents it runs, actually spent
Every cost question routes back to the head of infra
Engineers make trade-offs on latency and reliability with no cost signal next to them
Finance reports a number nobody else in the room can fully defend
What Costory delivers
One cost layer, read by everyone who ships
Unit economics by product, feature, and customer
Allocation maps every line item to the business dimension that matters (product line, feature, customer segment, squad), with the same numbers showing up in the web app, in Slack, and in your BI tool.
One source of truth across engineering and finance
Spend from AWS, GCP, Azure, Datadog, OpenAI, Anthropic, and Cursor is normalized into one model, so the CFO, the VP Eng, the squad lead, and the infra lead all read the same number.
Cost movements explained, not just reported
Deploys, pricing changes, and traffic spikes are correlated at ingest, so when a line moves the explanation is already on the chart.
The endpoint your agents query
Your deploy, scaling, and on-call agents pull the same allocated spend and budget headroom your engineers use, through the same endpoint and the same allocation model.
Lightweight by design
Zero cost to the infra lead who's already over-asked
30 minutes via Terraform, using the tags they already maintain. No re-tagging project, no FinOps hire, no new dashboard to maintain. Your infra lead stays on roadmap work.

Use cases
Use cases built for engineering leaders
Unit economics
Tie infra spend to Amplitude usage, see margin per user cohort.
Cost per active user
Tie infra spend to Amplitude usage, see margin per user cohort.
What your exec team wants
The view board meetings actually need, ready to share.
Monthly reviews
Automated cross-team readout, context pre-attached.
Reallocate API costs
Attribute shared API and platform costs to the consuming teams.
Decentralize FinOps
Push ownership to squads. Cost visibility stops being one person's job.
Outcomes
What you get with Costory
Unit economics on the same cadence as velocity
Finance and engineering read the same number
Cost surprises surface on deploy, not in the monthly review
Your agents make cost-aware decisions by default
Weekly digest
What lands in your inbox Monday morning
A weekly digest, per squad, in Slack:
What your squad spent last week (cloud + AI)
What moved, which deploy caused it, whether it was within range
Budget headroom, forecast to month-end
No logging into a tool. No chasing the infra lead. The digest is the tool.
Pay for the context layer, not the dashboards
€250 / month flat — up to €10M annual spend
No percentage of cloud spend
No enterprise sales call
No need to hire a FinOps team
