The AWS FinOps Agent, launched in June 2026, is a tool that investigates costs in AWS accounts and can be integrated with Slack and Jira. The agent provides four main features: natural language cost inquiry, anomaly investigation, consolidated recommendations, and scheduled reports. To implement the agent, certain prerequisites must be configured, including an AWS account with administrative access, enabled AWS Cost Optimization Hub and Compute Optimizer, and a Slack workspace.
