Anodot was founded with a single mission: to bring intelligence to business monitoring through anomaly detection. Our platform helped teams gain real-time visibility into metrics across revenue, operations, and customer experience and surfacing what mattered when it mattered most.
As the business world kept evolving, with strong adaptation and migration to the cloud. To meet these new requirements, in 2020, we acquired Pileus and entered a new phase of bringing our AI and ML expertise into the cloud cost space and helping organizations gain control over a growing and often unpredictable part of their operations.
That integration marked a turning point. We began embedding anomaly detection into cloud cost tooling, building a new kind of Cloud Financial Management (CFM) platform rooted in automation, insight, and scale.
It was a step beyond dashboards. It was action-first.
Over the next two years, the opportunity became even clearer. The cloud cost landscape was maturing fast. Businesses were seeking more from their financial systems, which included more intelligent workflows, better forecasting, and the ability to optimize across increasingly complex environments.
We had the foundation. We had the team. And we were ready to go further.
Introducing Umbrella: A Platform Built to Lead in CFM
Umbrella is our all-in-one Cloud Financial Management platform, purpose-built to help organizations gain complete control over their cloud spend. It’s built on years of real-world learning, enterprise collaboration, and customer feedback to help customers observe, optimize, and automate with precision.
From advanced forecasting to anomaly detection, automation to business mapping, Umbrella combines what FinOps teams need and delivers it through a powerful, AI-driven platform designed for scale.
Meanwhile, Anodot will continue focusing fully on anomaly detection and business monitoring. With dedicated leadership and product teams, both Umbrella and Anodot are now free to grow, innovate, and scale, each focused on delivering excellence in their respective categories.
Why Now
Cloud spend is increasing fast. Gartner estimates it will reach $723 billion by 2025. Yet companies report wasting nearly 27% of their IaaS and PaaS budgets. Most organizations now operate across multiple cloud providers, making financial management more complex than ever.
Umbrella was built to meet that challenge head-on. It’s not an add-on or a feature—it’s a standalone CFM platform engineered for the modern cloud.
Led by the Team That Built It
Umbrella is led by the same team that helped shape Anodot’s success in the cloud space. David Drai, CEO of Anodot, will lead Umbrella, with Limor Tepper, Head of Product, and Elisha Ben Zvi, VP of R&D, joining him as co-founders. Continuity, expertise, and vision will drive Umbrella forward with their leadership.
They’re joined by the engineers, product specialists, and customer teams you already know. This is not a handoff. This is the next phase of what we’ve already been building, but now with even greater focus!
The Umbrella leadership team: Dikla Patia, Elisha Ben Zvi, Einat Paz, Elad Aharoni, Limor Tepper, David Drai, and Hanan Gelbendorf
A Platform Built by Design to Be a Category Leader
Many tools in the FinOps space are built as a one-trick pony or acquired by giants. As the landscape shifted, so did product roadmaps and priorities, often leaving customers behind with confusion.
We built Umbrella differently. From its inception, Umbrella was built to lead the Cloud Financial Management category. Every platform feature reflects our commitment to advancing FinOps through long-term innovation, adaptability, and measurable impact. It’s built for enterprises and MSPs alike, who rely on us to bring clarity and control to their cloud costs.
The Future of CFM Starts Now
Umbrella exists to help organizations move faster, spend smarter, and confidently operate in the cloud. Whether you’re an MSP managing client costs or an enterprise navigating multi-cloud environments, we support you at every step.
This is a new chapter, and we’re proud to innovate with you.
“This is Umbrella—the all-in-one platform for cloud and SaaS cost optimization.”
—David Drai, CEO
