Kintsugi · FinOps Profile

Kintsugi Finops

FinOps view of Kintsugi spend. Kintsugi bills compliance outcomes - sales tax filings and state registrations - rather than per-API-call usage. Nexus monitoring is free; the Growth plan bills per filing and per registration; the Premium plan is a flat monthly subscription covering a set number of states; Enterprise is negotiated. The API itself is included with a paid plan, so the primary cost drivers are number of filings, number of registrations, and states covered. Figures are not reconciled.
