Roi is the CEO and co-founder of Finout. After more than 12 years of DevOps and engineering experience, including almost 6 years at Logz.io, Roi became an entrepreneur to solve the pains he experienced himself as a Director of Core Engineering.

Today, we’re proud to announce a pivotal milestone in Finout’s journey: our $40M Series C funding, led by Insight Partners, with participation from Pitango, Team8, Red Dot Capital, and Maor Investments. This moment is not just a testament to Finout’s growth but a reflection of the critical role FinOps now plays in modern enterprises.

This announcement holds special meaning for us at Finout because it represents the culmination of years of dedication, collaboration, and trustβ€”not just within our team but with our customers, investors, and partners. Our relationship with Insight Partners is a prime example. We’ve spent years building a strong foundation with their team, sharing our vision for shaping the FinOps market. After countless conversations, Froyo’s, and mutual learning, it became clear that now was the right time to deepen our partnership. Together, we’re poised to bring FinOps to its next chapter.

Proud of Our Progress, Excited for What’s Ahead

When we started Finout, we had one mission: to simplify cloud cost management for enterprises navigating increasingly complex environments. From AI model deployments to Kubernetes scaling, the challenges of understanding and controlling cloud spending have grown exponentially. Traditional approaches, riddled with inefficiencies and blind spots, simply can’t keep up.

That’s where Finout steps in. By delivering cloud-agnostic cost allocation, instant virtual tagging, and modern financial planning tools, we’ve empowered industry leaders like SiriusXM, The New York Times, and Lyft to turn cloud cost management into a strategic advantage. This funding enables us to double down on building the most advanced and user-centric FinOps platform, ensuring our customers can save smarter, work faster, and innovate more profitably.

Shaping the Future of FinOps

As we celebrate this milestone, we remain grounded in our vision: to make FinOps the cornerstone of every enterprise’s financial strategy. With 59% of organizations reporting increased cloud spending in 2024 and enterprises doubling AI infrastructure investments by 2026, the need for sophisticated cost management has never been clearer.

This is about more than just technologyβ€”it’s about creating a movement. FinOps is no longer a niche discipline; it’s becoming a company-wide imperative, bridging the gap between finance and engineering and driving smarter decision-making at every level. We’re honored to lead the charge, supported by a vibrant and growing FinOps community.

Looking Forward

On a personal note, this announcement is a moment of pride, but it’s also a reminder of why we do what we do. From our incredible team to our partners, investors, and customers, we’re humbled by the trust you’ve placed in us. Finout’s success is built on relationships, shared visions for the future, and a collective determination to make a difference.

We’re just getting started. With this funding, we’re committed to delivering even more innovation, enabling enterprises to navigate their cloud journeys with confidence and clarity. Together, we’re not just solving today’s challengesβ€”we’re defining the future of FinOps.

Thank you for being part of this journey.

FAQs

What Are the Three Pillars of FinOps?
The three pillars of FinOps are Inform, Optimize, and Operate. Inform focuses on visibility into cloud spending through tagging, cost allocation, and accurate forecasting. Optimize is about acting on that data by rightsizing instances, eliminating idle resources, and applying commitment-based discounts. Operate means continuously tracking cloud usage against business goals and sharing results with stakeholders. These phases are cyclical, not linear.
Is FinOps Just for Cloud?
No. FinOps originated as a cloud financial management discipline, but its scope has expanded. The FinOps Foundation now applies FinOps across public cloud platforms such as AWS, GCP, and Azure, as well as SaaS platforms, data cloud platforms like Snowflake and Databricks, data centers, and AI infrastructure and workloads. The practice, tools, and cultural habits stay the sameβ€”only the scope expands.
