Cloudchipr FinOps Platform with Finch AI Agent

Cloudchipr is a Y Combinator-backed (Winter 2023) FinOps startup founded in 2022 by Ashot Ayvazyan (CEO) and Suren Marashlyan (VP of Engineering), listed by Y Combinator in Berlin, Germany with a team of about 25. It helps companies keep multi-cloud spend under control around the clock instead of reviewing bills after the fact.

The platform connects to AWS, Google Cloud and Azure and offers a billing explorer, dashboards, live resource inventory, cost allocation dimensions, savings opportunities, budgets and alerts, and commitment tracking for Reserved Instances and Savings Plans. No-code if-then automation workflows act on idle resources or send notifications. Finch, described as a FinOps AI employee, explains cost spikes, answers questions in Slack, Teams or the app, maps cloud architecture and recommends Kubernetes fixes. Customers include ServiceTitan, CodeSignal, digital.ai, Miro and SuperAnnotate.

The company reports average customer savings of about USD 180,000 per month, around 200 engineering hours saved monthly and over USD 200 million saved in total. CodeSignal cut costs by 60% and digital.ai by 40% by cleaning up orphaned resources. Transparent pricing from USD 49 per month and a 14-day trial without a credit card suit small and mid-sized teams. The platform is SOC 2 certified.

Smaller engineering teams increasingly rely on AI agents and automation to run FinOps without dedicated analysts. Startups and software companies in Vietnam and Southeast Asia, often running on several clouds with lean teams, benefit from affordable tools that act on waste automatically.
