Visibility and governance, not just automation

Spot automates infrastructure. TurboFinOps adds cross-cloud findings, tagging governance, security posture and audit evidence around it.

Governed remediation with receipts

Actions pass a conflict guard and approval chain, then are bill-verified at day 7/14/30 — oversight that pure automation tools do not provide.

AI and multi-domain scope

LLM cost attribution and four-domain scoring cover parts of the bill and posture outside compute automation.
