What it is
CostPerform connects financial data with operational activity to model cost structures and support fact-based decisions. It offers four predefined costing methods that can be used interchangeably, plus budgeting, forecasting, scenario planning, and both showback and chargeback. Organizations can simulate future cost and performance for proposed products or services. Cost models are described as traceable and auditable for regulatory reporting, with multiple reporting and export options. ETL tools connect accounting software, CRM systems, and spreadsheets through ready-to-use connectors and scheduled pulls. CostPerform Cloud & AI connects by API to more than 30 AI, cloud, and SaaS providers, including Anthropic, Mistral, Google, AWS, and OpenAI. The maker lists government, telecom, financial institutions, healthcare, IT services, manufacturing, and logistics among its markets. CostPerform is web and API based, ISO 27001 certified, and supported by a global partner network. Pricing is on request; a trial is available without a stated duration.
