3.) Agent North – AI-Powered FinOps Copilot – Ask plain language questions in Slack or the app to analyze spend, flag anomalies, and generate instant FinOps insights, with no analyst required.

4.) GreenOps Impact Visualizations – Track carbon, energy, and water usage alongside cost metrics, aligning spend with environmental impact.

5.) Expanded Support for GCP – North now supports AWS and GCP optimization in a unified workflow. This brings automation, savings, and visibility across multi-cloud environments.
