DoiT Cloud Intelligence's new OpenAI integration lets you see all your OpenAI and cloud costs in one place, making it easier for FinOps and engineering teams to track, manage, and optimize their complete technology investments

After connecting your OpenAI account(s), you can explore your OpenAI cost and usage in DoiT Cloud Intelligence™ in several ways:

1. OpenAI Lens: Ready-to-use dashboard providing a comprehensive overview of your OpenAI costs and usage with views into your cost by model, daily spend by project, and more.

2. Cost Allocation: Allocate your OpenAI spend by business purpose (production vs. development, product A vs. product B) using the new dimensions from the OpenAI integration — or combine OpenAI costs with your cloud and other imported costs in a single allocation for complete cost visibility across all your technology investments.

In the example below, we’re creating allocations that track OpenAI costs across development and production environments for two different AI tools: a customer assistant and a product description generator.

3. Custom Reports: Build reports querying the new dimensions and system labels imported through the OpenAI integration that help you understand aspects of your OpenAI spend and usage. 

For example, you can break down OpenAI spending by individual users across your organization to understand consumption patterns and implement appropriate quotas.

4. Anomaly Detection: Automatically surface unusual patterns in your teams’ OpenAI usage and take action before it impacts your bill and operations.

5. Unified view of IT costs: View OpenAI costs alongside your cloud costs and other imported 3rd-party tool costs (DataDog, Snowflake) in your Pulse dashboard, a preset dashboard giving you an at-a-glance view of all your cloud and 3rd party tooling costs together.

The OpenAI integration is available for all the customers on the DoiT Cloud Intelligence Enhanced or Enterprise tiers, as well as on the DoiT Cloud Navigator Enhanced, Premium or Enterprise tiers. 

To learn more about OpenAI integration please check out our documentation in the DoiT Help Center.

We have simplified the customer journey to request DoiT cloud expert advice to resolve your cost anomalies as they arise. Now, you can initiate a request for expert advice directly from the cost anomaly detail screen by clicking “Contact a human expert.” Once the support ticket is created, it can be tracked via view requests screen.

Why this matters for you:

Consulting-first mindset
DoiT's experts are on-hand 24/7 to get to the root cause of the anomaly, provide prescriptive actions to resolve the issue, and suggest architectural changes to prevent it from recurring. 

One-click simplicity
Clicking the contact button on the anomaly page brings you directly to the ticket creation screen, with the pertinent details of the anomaly already populated along with the standard option to schedule a 15-minute initial assessment call. 

The ability to consult with DoiT cloud experts is available for customers on the DoiT Cloud Intelligence Enhanced or Enterprise tiers, and those who have an active Cloud Navigator Enhanced, Premium and Enterprise subscription. Customers without a paid subscription can also raise individual tickets at a flat rate of $750 each.

Getting timely and effective support is crucial—and we’re always looking for ways to make that easier for you. 

That’s why we’ve redesigned the support experience by deeply integrating Ava, our intelligent AI assistant, into the request process. This upgrade replaces the traditional multi-field form with a streamlined, single-page experience. 

Just describe your issue in plain language and Ava will pre-fill key fields based on what you enter, as well as prompt you to provide additional information if she thinks it’ll help resolve your issue or question faster.

• Simplified input: No more navigating dozens of fields and multiple pages. Now you can submit an expert inquiry request from a single page.
• Automatic classification & prioritization: Ava interprets your message to pre-fill key fields like severity, cloud platform, and product. You can always review and adjust.
• Context-aware guidance for faster resolution: Ava proactively identifies the technical details needed (such as ARNs, instance IDs, or resource names) while you're writing your ticket description. This eliminates time-consuming back-and-forth exchanges, dramatically speeding up the resolution process.

Accurate cost allocation is fundamental to a strong FinOps practice. For the past five years, DoiT customers have used Attributions and Attribution Groups to assign cloud spend to the appropriate business units, applications, and projects. We're now introducing Allocations - a streamlined experience that unifies both features and expands what’s possible. 

Allocations allows you to organize and group costs using your own categories – like teams, products, or environments – so you can see exactly where cloud spend is going, identify shared costs, and find non-governed usage. Easily define custom groupings of cloud resources based on any combination of dimensions, labels, and tags even when cost data isn’t perfectly tagged. We’ve also added new ways to create flexible rules with filters like ‘starts with,’ ‘ends with’ and ‘includes.’ 

These allocations can be used to track usage and cost in Cloud Analytics reports, measure business-specific operational data with custom metrics, set budget scopes, detect cost anomalies, and receive daily or weekly digests. For costs that don't fit into defined rules within a group allocation, a pre-defined "Unallocated" bucket ensures nothing slips through.

We built Allocations to simplify cost grouping, reduce friction in the setup process, and boost adoption. The new feature offers a faster, more intuitive UI for defining allocation rules using operator logic. You can even duplicate existing allocations with a single click to save time. 

Allocations are now available for all customers. Existing Attributions, Attribution Groups,  and any linked reports, anomalies and budgets have been automatically migrated to Allocations.  

With everything in one place and easier to manage, Allocations improves your ability to implement and scale your FinOps practices.

DoiT Cloud Intelligence now has a new Google-specific Insight that Google Cloud customers may not know about yet, but which will soon be critical to avoid unnecessary spend increases. This new Insight detects Cloud SQL major versions that reach end-of-life (EOL) by their developer communities. If your instance is running an EOL major version, then you will be charged for extended support starting on May 1, 2025.

As with our other Insights recommendations, we provide you with the total estimated savings for your infrastructure, broken down by project and instance so you can better prioritize your action plan. You can also engage the DoiT support team directly from the page, or create a Thread to alert your engineering team via Jira.

To read more about the latest Insights releases and how these can help you manage your cloud spend, read our latest blog post.

Note: Insights is available to DoiT Cloud Intelligence Enhanced and Enterprise customers

DoiT Cloud Intelligence™ goes beyond surface-level savings by now surfacing insights from all AWS Well-Architected categories, not just Cost Optimization and Security. That means more than 200 additional checks across Performance, Reliability, and Operational Excellence are now part of your unified view.

But this isn’t just about more alerts, it’s about smarter context. By layering Intent-aware FinOps, DoiT helps you distinguish between actual waste and justified spend. What looks “efficient” on a dashboard might actually be masking architectural debt or performance risks. Now you can spot those patterns, prioritize with confidence, and act on what truly matters.
