env0
env0 (pronounced "env zero") is an Infrastructure as Code (IaC) management and cloud governance platform that lets engineering teams run Terraform, OpenTofu, Terragrunt, Pulumi, CloudFormation, Kubernetes and Helm with self-service workflows, policy-as-code guardrails, cost visibility and drift detection. Founded in Israel in 2018, the company gives developers a fast, GitOps-driven way to provision cloud environments while platform and finance teams keep control over cost, security and compliance.
Kion
Kion is a Columbia, Maryland software company that builds a self-hosted FinOps+ platform for managing cloud operations across AWS, Azure, Google Cloud, and Oracle Cloud. Founded in 2018 as cloudtamer.io and rebranded as Kion in 2021, the company combines cloud financial management, policy-based governance, and continuous compliance into a single platform that runs inside a customer's own cloud environment. Its software is used by commercial, higher-education, and government organizations - including NASA, the CDC, Verizon, and Indeed - to control cloud spend, enforce guardrails, and automate account provisioning through retirement.
MontyCloud
MontyCloud is a Redmond, Washington-based software company behind DAY2, a no-code autonomous CloudOps platform that helps IT teams, enterprises, and AWS managed service providers govern, secure, and cut the cost of running cloud infrastructure without writing code or hiring large cloud engineering teams. Founded in 2018 by Venkat Krishnamachari and Kannan Parthasarathy and led by CEO Walter Rogers, the company pairs deep AWS integration with generative and agentic AI to automate routine cloud operations, enforce best practices, and give teams a single dashboard for visibility across multiple accounts and tenants.
Yotascale
Yotascale is a Palo Alto-based cloud cost management and FinOps platform that helps enterprises allocate, optimize, budget and forecast their spend across AWS, Azure, Google Cloud and Kubernetes. Founded in 2015 by former PayPal platform-engineering head Asim Razzaq, the company takes an engineering-first approach to the 'spend attribution problem,' tying cloud costs back to the teams and services that generate them so engineers, finance and executives can share accountability. It is used by companies such as Zoom, Hulu, Okta and other Fortune 1000 firms, and has raised roughly $25 million to date.
Resourcely (acquired by Anysphere)
Resourcely was a San Francisco cybersecurity startup that made cloud infrastructure secure and compliant by design. Its platform paired Blueprints - self-service templates that generate golden-path Terraform and OpenTofu - with Guardrails, a policy engine written in a human-friendly language called Really that catches misconfigurations before deployment. Founded in 2022 by Travis McPeak and Aladdin Almubayed and backed by $8M in seed funding, Resourcely was acquired by Anysphere (maker of the AI code editor Cursor) in July 2025, with McPeak joining to lead Cursor's security efforts.
