FinOps Is The Margin Lever SaaS CEOs Keep Ignoring

You’re probably not combing through cloud bills. That’s not your job as CEO. But if no one on your executive team can tell you what it costs to serve a customer, ship a feature, or launch a new product line, that’s a problem. Not a someday problem. A right-now, quietly-draining-your-margins kind of problem. FinOps tends to get lumped in with cost-cutting — some finance thing, some DevOps thing. But that framing misses the point. Done right, FinOps is a growth enabler.
