The ServiceNow integration is in Labs now, which means any CloudZero admin can switch it on and start routing cost work into their incident queue the same day. What that gives you is a full loop between the money and the work. A monthly Optimize pass surfaces recommendations with a dollar figure on each one.

Across a same-store panel of 430 CloudZero customer organizations, AI reached 2.66% of the median company's cloud bill in August 2026, up from 2.61% in July and roughly four times its level a year ago.

Two-thirds of the panel now spends at least $1,000 a month on AI. The typical bill barely shifted.
