Cost Management Agent

Your agent owns every dollar of cloud and AI spend

Get full visibility into cloud and AI spend as Harness Cost Management Agent attributes, optimizes, and governs at the level of autonomy you choose.

AI Costs

Know what your AI actually costs

Spot overpowered models, bloated prompts, and retry loops, then fix the waste automatically before it compounds.

Spend Visibility

See exactly what each model, provider, and workload costs you, refreshed daily.

Anomaly Detection

Forecasts flag unusual spikes before they turn into budget overruns.

Automatic Remediation

Overpowered models and bloated prompts get fixed without waiting on a ticket.

Engineering Efficiency

Spot overspending before it compounds

Tie every AI session to a developer, then flag spend that's outpacing the code they're actually shipping.

Spend Per Developer

Every AI session ties back to the developer, team, or ticket it produced.

Overspend Detection

Flags developers whose cost per line of code exceeds the 75th percentile.

Shipped Output

Compares AI spend against lines committed, PRs merged, and ship rate.

Cloud Costs

Catch cloud waste before it adds up

See cost anomalies the moment they happen, broken down by provider, so nothing slips by unnoticed.

Anomaly Alerts

16 cost anomalies detected this week, flagged the moment they occur.

Provider Breakdown

See spend and trend across GCP, AWS, Azure, and OpenAI in one view.

Savings Recommendations

$310K a month in potential savings identified across 7,431 recommendations.

Key cost management features

The comprehensive feature set behind the Cost Management Agent, and how much control you have over each one.

AutoStopping

Idle VMs and Kubernetes workloads are stopped automatically and restarted on demand, eliminating waste around the clock.

Commitment Orchestrator

Recommends the right Reserved Instance and Savings Plan mix across AWS, Azure, and GCP, then re-optimizes coverage automatically as usage shifts.

Unit Attribution

Every dollar is mapped to the team, workload, model, or agent behind it, with no manual tagging required.

Budget and Anomaly Detection

Real-time budget monitoring per team with trend alerts before month end. Chargeback reports auto-generated for finance.

Chargeback and Showback

Accurate cost allocation reports for internal billing by team, cost center, and business unit with full audit trails.

AI Spend per Shipped Feature

See whether rising token spend actually produces more shipped code. Surface tokens burned on work that was abandoned, rewritten, or never shipped.

Spend control your CFO will trust

Budgets, policies, and audit trails enforce themselves automatically.

Configurable autonomy

Choose whether the agent recommends, waits for approval, or acts on its own, scoped by team, workload, or budget.

Budget and policy enforcement

Set spend limits and approved-model policies by team or use case. The agent enforces them and flags anomalies in real time.

Immutable audit trail

Every recommendation, approval, and autonomous action is logged with full context, exportable for SOC 2, ISO 27001, and FinOps reviews.

Natural language policy authoring

Describe a governance rule in plain English. The agent turns it into an enforced policy across AWS, Azure, and GCP, no OPA or YAML required.
