Cloud spend is a finance problem that lives inside an engineering system. Before founding Cloud Capital, our team personally managed $100Ms in commitments and saw it from both sides: finance without visibility, engineering carrying commitment risk, and the gap that sat between them, unsolved. We built Cloud Capital to close it.

Built by people who've managed this from both sides.

Cloud and AI infrastructure spend has grown into one of the largest line items on the P&L and one of the least governed. Most finance teams can't explain it. Most engineering teams can't fix it without painful tradeoffs. The gap between them is where margin goes to die.

Cloud Capital's founding team lived in that gap. We managed cloud commitments at scale, watched AI inference costs spike spend overnight, and navigated the finance-engineering dynamic firsthand. We built Cloud Capital to give finance and engineering a shared foundation for turning cloud spend from a liability into a margin lever.

Meet the founders.

Ed Barrow

Co-Founder & CEO

After building and selling his first business, Idio, Ed spent years managing $100Ms in cloud commitments as a finance leader at Optimizely. He founded Cloud Capital to give finance leaders the visibility and structural leverage over cloud spend he wished he'd had.

Spencer Pingry

Co-Founder & CTO

Spencer has built and scaled cloud infrastructure at companies including Netezza, AOL, and Optimizely. He's seen the cloud spend problem from the engineering side at every stage of scale. When CTOs ask hard questions about how Cloud Capital works, Spencer is the one answering them.

Zack Liscio

Co-Founder & CPO

Zack has spent his career building product that non-technical users actually rely on, including at Naytev, which he founded and sold. At Cloud Capital, that means finance leaders who need to understand cloud spend, act on it, and report on it, without needing an engineering background to get there.
