Automations

Automation-first FinOps. With a human still in the loop.

CoreFinOps automates the work your team keeps postponing — rightsizing, cleanup, commitment renewals — while every action runs through approval, policy, and rollback.

How automation works

1

Detect

CoreFinOps continuously monitors your cloud accounts for waste, drift, and anomalies.

2

Propose

Every automation is proposed as a concrete action with expected savings, affected resources, and a rollback plan.

3

Act or approve

Auto-execute within your pre-set policy boundaries, or route to the right approver. Either way, the action is logged.

What we automate today

Resource hygiene

  • Stop idle EC2, RDS, and EKS workloads outside business hours
  • Delete unattached EBS volumes and unused snapshots older than policy
  • Release unused elastic IPs, load balancers, and NAT gateways

Rightsizing

  • EC2 and RDS instance resize recommendations with usage evidence
  • EKS node group right-sizing based on actual pod consumption
  • Storage tier downgrades for cold data

Commitments

  • Savings Plans and Reserved Instance recommendations with break-even math
  • Commitment renewal alerts ahead of expiration
  • Underutilized commitment detection and reallocation

Tagging & governance

  • Auto-apply required tags from CMDB or account metadata
  • Flag resources that violate tagging policy
  • Block or quarantine resources that breach spend limits

Safety rails

Every automation runs through a set of configurable safeguards. You decide how much autonomy CoreFinOps has — and you can always take it back.

Approval workflows

Every automation has a configurable approver chain by environment, team, and blast radius.

Policy guardrails

Set hard limits — "never stop production," "never release if tagged critical" — and CoreFinOps enforces them.

Dry-run mode

Simulate every action and review the expected outcome before anything executes.

One-click rollback

Every action is reversible for a configurable window.

Complete logs

Every proposed, approved, executed, and rolled-back action is recorded with actor, timestamp, and evidence.
