Why Cloud Companion

Everything your cloud needs. One platform.

BigQuery Analytics

Query-level cost attribution no one else offers

See exactly where every dollar goes — down to individual BigQuery queries, datasets, and slot usage across all your GCP projects.

  • Per-query cost breakdown

    Track costs to individual BigQuery queries and see which jobs are driving spend.

  • Dataset & project attribution

    Drill into cost by dataset, project, and user — know who's spending what.

  • Slot usage analysis

    Monitor slot utilisation and get recommendations to right-size your reservations.

  • Anomaly detection

    AI-powered alerts when spend patterns deviate from expected baselines.
