Our Mission
The cloud is incredibly powerful, but operating it cost effectively is complicated and time-consuming.
Our mission is to remove complexity and deliver automated savings outcomes so every business can prosper in the cloud.
Our Story
We’re a group of technologists and economics geeks who love solving problems and serving customers. Before founding ProsperOps, we started the AWS managed services business at Rackspace and grew it into one of the world’s largest AWS Premier Consulting Partners and a leader in Gartner’s Magic Quadrant.
From serving thousands of customers at an MSP to running a SaaS company directly, we saw firsthand the importance of cost optimization, but also how hard it was to master. Doing it well requires a rare blend of finance and engineering expertise. Over the years, we’ve developed extensive experience with virtually every cost optimization solution, most of which overload users with recommendations and lack context to see the complete picture. DevOps and FinOps teams are smartโbut busyโand in a world of increasingly complex and dynamic cloud environments, ongoing cloud economic optimization requires an approach that unifies the technical and financial worlds.
We knew there had to be a better wayโso we started ProsperOps. We build tooling and combine it with expertise to help you conquer cloud economics. We want your business to prosper in the cloudโnot only by saving you money, but also by giving you time back to focus on the important things.

Core Values
Do the right thing
Operate with integrity. Be mindful of how you represent yourself, your colleagues, and our company.
Live by the golden rule
Treat everyone — each other, customers, partners, stakeholders, and others — with respect.
Knowledge is power
Remain curious. Place a premium on competence and a thoughtful understanding of our business.
Get your hands dirty
Roll up your sleeves. Leaders shouldnโt delegate anything they would not, or could not do, themselves.
Bureaucracy is the enemy
Every team member is empowered to ask questions and work directly with any member of the team. Eliminate unnecessary meetings, red tape, and practices. Move fast and learn things.
Take the work seriously, but not yourself
We take cloud FinOps, our customers and partners, and the value we provide through our products seriously. But, we also keep it light and have fun.
