Census · FinOps Profile

Census Ci Finops

FinOps view of Census spend. Census bills on active syncs and the records they move (sync entitlements), plus monthly tracked users (MTU) for the Audience Hub, across Free, Platform, and Enterprise plans. The Management API is not separately metered; cost is driven by how much data is activated and how many users are tracked.

Census Ci Finops is the FinOps profile for Census on the APIs.io network, aligned with the FinOps Foundation Framework.

It defines 3 billable meters, billed in USD, on a monthly cycle, and pricing category usage-based.

The profile maps 8 FOCUS columns for cost-allocation reporting.

Tagged areas include Reverse ETL, Data Activation, Syncs, Audience Hub, and FinOps.
