Optix AI

The open-source FinOps agent that makes your cloud spend smarter.

Optix AI connects directly to AWS Cost Explorer and uses large language models to deliver actionable cloud cost optimization insights — automatically. No dashboards to configure, no manual analysis. Just run optix and get a comprehensive report in seconds.

Built for engineers and FinOps practitioners who want real recommendations, not just charts. Powered by Anthropic Claude or Google Gemini, Optix AI surfaces exactly what to act on and why.

Anomaly Detection

Flags unexpected cost spikes using configurable thresholds before they turn into budget overruns.
