Warrant · FinOps Profile

Warrant Dev Finops

FinOps view of Warrant spend. Warrant's core authorization engine is open source (Apache-2.0) and free to self-host - in that model the cost is your own compute, storage, and the backing datastore (MySQL, Postgres, or SQLite) that runs the Warrant service, with no vendor invoice. The hosted Warrant Cloud was billed on a usage basis driven by authorization activity (objects and warrants stored, plus access checks performed), above a free developer allowance. RETIRED - Warrant was acquired by WorkOS (2024-04-23) and the hosted service was sunset 2025-11-15; hosted per-unit rates were not reconciled. Current fine-grained authorization spend is invoiced by WorkOS.
