Case Study: Nubank extends cloud efficiency across 45+ business units with PointFive

Nubank surfaces 200+ waste types and recovers contract value in 10 days with PointFive

Nubank, one of the world's largest digital financial services platforms, faced a gap in its mature FinOps practice. While it had deep cost visibility across its 45+ business units, it lacked the ability to identify the root causes of cloud waste and inefficiencies across its large AWS environment. The company adopted PointFive to extend its existing tooling with deep waste investigation.

Using its DeepWaste Detection Engine, PointFive identified more than 200 types of waste across AWS, routing actionable remediation opportunities directly to engineering teams. As a result, Nubank recovered the full annual cost of the PointFive contract within ten days of the POC and realized millions in annual cloud savings. The solution embedded cost efficiency into engineering workflows, creating a cultural shift.
