Iconik Finops

FinOps view of iconik spend. iconik is billed on a usage basis: a per-user monthly charge for the users who actually log in (by role - collaborator, browse, standard, power) plus consumables drawn down from credits as they are used, covering storage, egress, AI, and services. Because iconik connects to your own AWS, Azure, Google Cloud, or on-premise storage rather than forcing a proprietary storage migration, a meaningful share of media storage and egress cost can sit on your own cloud bill in addition to iconik's invoice - so cost visibility spans both iconik and your underlying storage provider. Enterprise agreements offer a fixed annual cost option for budget certainty.
