Costory has four plans. Every plan includes unlimited users, unlimited data sources, every playbook, the FinOps MCP and Slack. Pricing follows how much your teams use Costory, not a percentage of your cloud bill. Every plan starts with a 30-day free trial. You can contract by credit card, through AWS Marketplace or through Google Cloud Marketplace. Billing monthly costs 20% more than an annual commitment.

Fair use

Each plan includes a fair use on two things:
  • App usage: queries, reports and alerts.
  • AI: Ask Costory, the AI analyst in the app and in Slack.
The Starter fair use fits about 80% of our customers. You see your usage in the app and get a warning at 70% of the limit. Above the limit, the heaviest queries slow down. Nothing is ever cut off mid-session.
Claude, Cursor or any agent connected through the FinOps MCP does not consume Ask Costory credits. If your team already works in an AI assistant, use it through the MCP.

Spend bands are a guardrail

The annual cloud and AI spend shown on each plan is only a guardrail for large estates. It is not how the price is set: two teams with the same cloud bill can sit on different plans depending on how much they use Costory.

Identity and access

Starter uses auto-join by company domain. Team, Business and Custom add Enterprise SSO through your identity provider. See Identity and Access for the full comparison.

Which plan should you pick?

  • Starter if one team wants every bill allocated and explained, in Slack and in their assistant.
  • Team once Costory rolls out more widely and security or procurement asks for SSO.
  • Business for larger estates that need fresher data, more headroom on usage and Slack support.
  • Custom for enterprise spenders with large usage who need custom terms and hands-on support.
