Bruno · FinOps Profile

Bruno Api Finops

FinOps view of Bruno spend. Bruno is an open-source (MIT) developer tool, not a hosted API, so there is no usage-metered API invoice. The open-source client and the @usebruno/cli runner are free; cost, when present, is subscription (per-seat) spend on the paid Pro and Ultimate tiers or an enterprise support agreement, billed annually in USD. Because Bruno is offline-first and runs locally, there is no vendor-side compute/egress bill either - the tool runs on developer workstations and in your own CI/CD runners.
