    PointFive Cloud & AI Efficiency Platform

    PointFive is the only platform that finds deep architectural waste across your AWS environment and drives every finding to verified, engineering-ready action. Powered by proprietary DeepWaste™ technology and 400+ research-driven detection types, PointFive identifies what AWS Cost Explorer and Trusted Advisor cannot: the root causes behind runaway spend, not just where the money went.

    Proven ROI, not projections: Customers typically identify 20 to 30% of their AWS spend as waste within the first week of deployment. Average customer ROI exceeds 1,400%, verified against actual billing data, not estimates. One global enterprise with $40M+ in annual multi-cloud spend achieved over 20% savings across 250+ workloads using PointFive as their centralized FinOps platform. 57% faster time to resolution. 24% more realized savings.

    Deep detection across every AWS service: PointFive connects agentlessly and read-only to 40+ data sources and runs 400+ research-driven detections across compute, containers, databases, storage, networking, commitments, and AI workloads. Built to pick up where Cost Explorer and Trusted Advisor leave off, PointFive transforms spend visibility into prioritized, engineering-ready actions with verified dollar impact across EC2, EKS, RDS, S3, Savings Plans, and Bedrock and SageMaker AI workloads.

    From detection to resolution, without friction: Unlike other cost tooling that surfaces spend without context, PointFive generates prioritized, engineering-ready actions with quantified dollar impact, effort rating, risk classification, and clear ownership. Findings route directly into Jira, ServiceNow, Slack, Microsoft Teams, and IDEs, with AI Co-Workers that follow up and escalate autonomously 24/7. Savings are tracked closed-loop against actual billing data, not estimates.

    Enterprise-ready, AWS ISV Accelerate partner: SOC 2 Type II and ISO 27001 certified. GDPR compliant. Agentless and read-only with zero footprint, zero operational risk, and Fortune 500 approved in under a week. Extensible via API, MCP, and native IDE integration including Copilot and Cursor. Available directly through AWS Marketplace. PointFive helps AWS customers run leaner, healthier environments so they can confidently reinvest savings into modernization, AI, and strategic AWS workloads instead of reacting to runaway costs.

    Get started: Deploy in under 5 minutes with no agents and no code changes. Request a guided demo to start a free 14-day POC.

    Highlights

    • Engineering-Native Remediation: Route findings directly to engineers in Jira, Slack, ServiceNow, and IDEs, with AI Co-Workers that follow up 24/7. 57% faster time to resolution, 24% more realized savings, and closed-loop verification against actual billing data.
    • Agentless, Enterprise-Scale Efficiency: Deploy read-only in under 5 minutes across your entire AWS org with no agents, no code changes, and zero operational risk. Average customer ROI exceeds 1,400%, verified, not estimated. Ideal for enterprises spending $1M+ monthly on AWS.

    Powerful, Connected Insights for Savings, Inventory, and Workflow

    Reviewed on Feb 17, 2026
    Review provided by G2
    What do you like best about the product?
    The user interface is very powerful, and I like how all the data is connected to provide meaningful insights into savings potential, existing inventory, and workflow management. The actionable items and detailed analysis are especially helpful for engineers.
    What do you dislike about the product?
    So far, there is limited information about commitment management on the platform, and the dataset needed to create automatic reports on realized savings is missing. This makes it feel a bit less like a complete package for managing FinOps at scale.
    What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
    It addresses the need for a single source of truth across all the data points required to make informed decisions about cloud savings realization, while also helping govern the optimization implementation process.

    Review provided by G2
    What do you like best about the product?
    Cost savings by glancing through the dashboard
    What do you dislike about the product?
    Filtering UI and UX could be better, additionally, you cannot control how reccommendations are generated.
    What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
    Cost optimisation opportunities are presented with very good UI with glanceable comprehension.

    Makes Saving Money Fun

    Reviewed on Feb 13, 2026
    Review provided by G2
    What do you like best about the product?
    PointFive truly reduces the time it takes to investigate savings. For each item there's a diagnosis followed by a remediation workflow. No longer do I need to spend a ton of time researching savings as they've already done it for me.
    What do you dislike about the product?
    I feel like there's an opportunity to gamify savings a bit more i.e like a "company savings leaderboard" and then work with your customer to actually offer rewards beyond the reward of saving a ton of money!
    What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
    With all the services AWS offers now it's impossible to sit down and find savings across every single service. PointFive does this automatically and will show me savings I never would have thought to review.

    Empowers Cost Visibility, Needs UI Polish

    Reviewed on Feb 12, 2026
    Review provided by G2
    What do you like best about the product?
    I really like that PointFive has worked with us directly to solve the problems we have. They've been very receptive to our feedback on user experience and the needs we have as a large enterprise. I value the datasets they have exposed to us the most, as we can build robust tools in-house and display data in ways that matter to us. This saves us both time and money since we don't have to host or maintain the database, allowing us to focus on delivering exactly what our teams need. I also like the extra data breakdowns that PointFive provides.
    What do you dislike about the product?
    Some of the UI functionality could be improved. There are aspects that lack some polishing for a more intuitive experience. Filtering is a big one; it's difficult to search and opt in or out of filter options on the reporting screens. Also, building reports yourself can be cumbersome. I would love to see a text to auto dashboard creator type of interaction for the custom dashboard feature.
    What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
    I use PointFive for cost opportunity and anomaly tracking, which helps us track runaway costs. The datasets are invaluable for custom dashboarding, saving time and money by not maintaining databases, letting us focus on what teams need.

    Point 5 Makes Cloud Cost Savings Simple

    Reviewed on Feb 12, 2026
    Review provided by G2
    What do you like best about the product?
    Saving money in the cloud isn’t simple—at least, it wasn’t for me until I started using Point 5. I now use it a few times a week, especially when we’re downgrading infrastructure to help the company save money.

    The user interface is very straightforward, and it’s simple and intuitive to use.
    What do you dislike about the product?
    The poweruser query language can be a bit fiddly
    What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
    In several teams we have gone through cost saving excercises, point 5 puts simple processes around this to help poke and make standard users super charge the money saving process
