Cloud consultancy LucidPoint has launched FinOps Managed Services to help clients clarify cloud costs. The company’s head of product and CEO join host Katie Bavoso to break down the barrier of entry to better financial freedom when it comes to optimizing cloud spend.

Co-founded in 2017 by a US military veteran with an extensive history working for some of the top technology companies in the market, LucidPoint aims to make financial operations an easy task for customers by taking FinOps management off their plates. CEO Mike Fontaine and Head of Product Maribel Mendoza explain why LucidPoint, a Google Cloud partner, built out its FinOps Managed Services offering to help customers better navigate their cloud journeys by removing complexity from cloud cost management. Fontaine also explains how the company is using AI while remaining a “people first” organization, and how they’re building trust with customers.
