Cloud cost startup North adds Microsoft Azure to complete hyperscaler support

Cloud financial management startup North Cloud Holdings Inc. has released North 3.0, a platform-wide update that adds Microsoft Azure support and consolidates cloud, artificial intelligence, and data spending into a single system. This release brings North's coverage across all three major hyperscale cloud providers: Amazon Web Services (AWS), Google Cloud Platform, and Azure.

The update also introduces native integrations with AI model and data platform costs from OpenAI Group PBC, Anthropic PBC, and Snowflake Inc. North 3.0 features an automated tool called Autobot that optimizes cloud commitments by spreading purchases into smaller monthly increments using machine learning. Additionally, the platform now includes generative dashboards for natural language insights, rebalanced commitment management, and optimization features for cross-cloud usage. North raised $5 million in a Series A round led by Companyon Ventures last year.
