Current Ties Every Cloud Dollar to Business Value
DoiT Cloud Intelligence delivers real-time anomaly detection and workload-level allocations across Current's multi-region Google Cloud and GKE footprint.
Meet Current
Current is a FinTech company headquartered in New York, dedicated to helping millions of Americans improve their financial outcomes through a modern, mobile-first banking experience. As a digital-first business operating in a fast-paced, highly-regulated space, Current relies on the cloud's scalability, agility, and cost efficiency to serve its customers effectively and securely. From day one, Current has operated entirely on Google Cloud, and just as early in its journey, it partnered with DoiT to ensure its cloud investments delivered both performance and efficiency.
The Challenge
As Current scaled its platform and customer base, its cloud infrastructure rapidly became more complex across multi-region deployments. The company needed a way to clearly understand how every dollar spent in the cloud translated into unit economics and business value per job, service, and region. The infrastructure team needed proactive, real-time intelligence to prevent and detect anomalies and optimize workloads quickly before inefficiencies became expensive issues.
The Solution
DoiT Cloud Intelligence became a core part of Current's infrastructure optimization strategy. The platform's Allocations feature enabled the team to map spend to business logic of workloads across regions. Real-Time Anomaly Detection integrated into Slack provided immediate notifications for unusual spend patterns. DoiT's dedicated Technical Account Managers provided strategic guidance on GKE architecture and commit strategies.
Results
- Gained single, shared, real-time level of cloud visibility and control tied directly to business operations
- Reduced wasted spend and shortened time-to-detect/time-to-resolve through proactive anomaly detection
- Achieved precise, explainable optimizations across GKE and other workloads by dissecting cost by region, service, and job
- Ensured predictable unit economics through strategic advisory on commitment strategy and cloud architecture
DoiT Cloud Intelligence supercharges our infrastructure team, which is responsible for driving cost optimization across the stack. We use the console to obtain business-level intelligence and identify all our cost bottlenecks.
Trevor Marshall, CTO and Co-Founder at Current
Real-Time Anomaly Detection
One of the most valuable features currently adopted is DoiT Real-Time Anomaly Detection. Introduced early in its journey, the Anomaly Detection feature quickly became part of Current's daily workflow. By integrating alerts into Slack, the infrastructure team received immediate notifications whenever unusual spend patterns emerged, enabling real-time triage of misconfigurations or unexpected behavior. The alerts transformed cost management from reactive to proactive, enabling the team to resolve issues in real time rather than after-the-fact analysis.
Strategic Partnership
Equally impactful was the human side of the partnership. Over the years, Current has consistently worked with a dedicated team of DoiT Technical Account Managers who not only understand its architecture and goals but evolve alongside Current. This persistent technical relationship has been instrumental in keeping pace with Current's growth and ensuring continuity in decision-making. The partnership has remained strong and consistent over the years, giving Current the confidence to grow on Google Cloud with DoiT as a trusted strategic ally.

What they say
What I really like about DoiT's approach is that you're very hands-on and proactive. Satyam would ping me a few times a sprint, letting me know about the most current features, checking in on how things are going. When we are going through a peak time, that proactiveness makes a real difference. Satyam always comes through whenever we need support and helps us leverage the right experts to get us where we need to be.
Chiamaka Ibeme, Engineering Manager, Platform
DoiT was a true partner, not a vendor. They helped us understand the problem, refine the vision, and build something production-ready far faster than we could have on our own. Their expertise, responsiveness, and commitment made all the difference.
Dr. Anish Kapur, Founder & CEO, Promptly
DoiT's Customer Success and Forward Deployed Engineering teams work very closely with us. The regular sessions with our CSM keep us focused on the right priorities, and the FDEs provide the deep technical guidance we need to validate decisions and optimize our environment. That combination has been genuinely valuable for us.
Alexander Lundberg Santos, Platform Engineer at Extenda Retail
When we started working with DoiT, we deployed Flexsave to save time and reduce complexity. We still use it today. But what really stands out is the expert support. Having someone to collaborate with on deep cloud cost topics, someone who really understands the nuances, is incredibly valuable.
Jesper Terkelsen, CTO at Monta
DoiT's Cloud Accelerator turned our AI idea into a shipped product, saving at least three months of development and delivering reliable, explainable insights our customers trust.
Scott Desgrosseilliers, CEO and co-founder, Wicked Reports
Working with DoiT gave us the speed of a startup and the rigor of an enterprise R&D lab. We launched an AI feature in ninety days with zero engineering lift, unified our cloud visibility across multiple products and built a foundation to scale AI responsibly.
Tim Green, SVP of AI, DaySmart
Our AWS environment had grown rapidly, and complexity was outpacing control. DoiT helped us bring structure and clarity, aligning financial and technical decisions through a shared foundation.
Maurizio Trezzi, Director of IT, Vivaticket
DoiT gives us contextual insight into what's happening in our cloud environment. That helps us ensure we're meeting customer needs while managing our costs. It's that central pane of glass that lets engineering and finance work together, powered by the technology and backed by DoiT's people.
Matt Warner, Co-Founder and CEO at Blumira
For anyone considering DoiT: do it. The tools pay for themselves. We've reduced costs, improved visibility, and built a platform that can scale globally with control and confidence.
Matej Serbec, CTO, TradeLocker
DoiT didn't just give us a product – they gave us clarity. Cloud Diagrams has helped our teams understand what we're running, why we're running it, and where we can improve. The real-time visibility is a game changer for engineering, leadership, and everything in between.
Donnie Green, VP of Platform Engineering, Bloomerang
With maybe 5-10 minutes, Ava had guided me right down into the low-level detail of the services that we were running in our compute environment, named the exact instances that were starting to chew through our money, produced a report for me that showed that this was almost a direct correlation to the cost growth that we were seeing, which meant that we were able to get on top of it pretty much immediately.
Stephen Roughley, Head of Engineering at Sentric Music
With DoiT Cloud Intelligence™ managing our procurement and DoiT's engineers acting as an extension of my team, my costs are down, my efficiency is up, and my profitability is up
Mitch Bernet, Founder and CEO at Atadex
A key takeaway for me working with DoiT is that the level of professionalism is extremely high. They're an obvious choice if you're looking for a partner to help implement best practices in your cloud environment and reduce cost.
