Spend and Forecast

CostOps shows billing data for one selected cloud connection at a time. The dashboard keeps provider-specific billing behavior visible instead of merging accounts or converting every currency.

​

Spend summary

Updated <date> sits in the page header beside the Daily refresh control, not in the spend summary. It reports when CostOps last ingested billing rows for the connection. CostOps does not show a month-over-month percentage on the current-month summary. Comparing a partial month with a completed month would misstate the change.

​

Monthly spend and forecast

Expand Monthly spend & forecast to load the chart. CostOps opens it automatically the first time a scan starts for a connection, and you can collapse it again. It separates three kinds of points: Provider billing data can arrive late. AWS Cost Explorer commonly lags by 24–48 hours, GCP export rows can lag usage, and Azure Cost Management can lag by up to 24 hours. The freshness note beside Updated explains the selected provider.

​

Top services last month

The service panel ranks up to 15 services from the last completed month. Its header uses the full bill total, including services grouped into Other services. Each service row can show:

• last-month spend and share of the full bill;
• month-over-month change when the prior month has data;
• potential monthly savings and finding count;
• scan progress or a failed scan state.

Select a service to filter the findings panel. Account-wide findings remain in All because no single service owns them.

​

Currency behavior

CostOps reads the currency from the ingested month. It does not label Azure values as USD or invent a conversion rate.
